Dear All
I am a civil engineer and I need to carry out a detailed design of a shear or core wall in a 4 story reinforced concrete building using BS 8110. I would appreciate it if someone would send a spreadsheet and any other relevant information that would be of some assistance.

Dear all, what is the ideal place to locate guard rails at approaches to bridges and why? I have seen it located in line with the bridge parapet and also in line with the kerb separating the bridge walkway from the roadway.
