Guys I need your help. the consultant is asking me to add the internal wind pressure to the original horizontal live load. our company already fabricated the balustrade but if we comply with the consultant's comment some of the section will change. Does this internal wind pressure(0.25kPa) is...
Hello, guys, I'm a bit confuse of what parameters should I consider in a cantilever column that is not braced at the free end. This structure has a concentrated load at the free end. Do I need to check the column for lateral torsional buckling, or this checking is only applicable for beams? Any...
we have a project that has a cantilevered slab(1000mm overhang- balcony) on the 3rd floor but due to some circumstances, the concrete on the cantilevered portion is not poured on the same time with the main floor slab. Heres my questions, is it safe to consider it a fully rigid even though it is...
Hello guys, can anyone enlighten me on this type of foundation for Steel Post
1. What are the advantages/disadvantages of this foundation compare to the standard footing?
2. How do we compute for this kind of foundation? Is there any specific code or standards?
Thanks.
Hi I have some clarification on asce/ubc/ibc in computing the lateral force of the whole tank including the liquid inside. Do this codes consider the correcting force of the liquid while experiencing earthquake? or we just consider the liquid to be part of the total weight of the tank and...
Hello guys, I have this project, a covered area(see the picture for reference) the perimeter of this structure will be closed by masonry wall(9m height & 17m width. Here are my questions.
1) should I put a column besides the existing steel column and treat the proposed wall and its structural...
Hello guys what would be the minimum clear distance of new column to the existing wall to avoid any problem on fixing the new steel column. thank you in advance
Hello guys. I need your professional advise regarding this project im working. The project is additional mezzanine and the municipality engr wants to provide additional footing for all the support instead of directly connecting the new columns to the existing subgrade slab(200mm). and this is...
Guys can someone show me how to do detail the rebar of the stair.The stair will not be suspended (see attached) so can someone tell me what is the minimum requirement of rebar except for the temp bar at the bottom part of the stair and 10mm bar @ the nosing of every step. Im confuse on how to...
what are the requirements on making a hole in a existing slab, is there any restricted area for example near the column?. and what are the things need to be check??
Can someone explain how to compute for the effective width of the slab considering the soil bearing capacity?. Or any code reference to help me explain how this matter should be calculated? see attach sketch
Any good reference on designing silo and tanks or other structure under OIL and gas industry for a newbie like me. Any suggestion will be greatly appreciated.
I have this catalogue showing the allowable working load for different profiles and they provided a typical detail of composite slab deck . Can someone give me any design reference to verify these values using BS? ACI? I need to check a Steel deck profile (45x150x1mm) + 100mm (overall height of...
In this kind of connection where the bolt goes trough the wall and bolted at the other side of the wall.Should I only check concrete edge failure and ignore the pry out failure.because when i try to model it to hilti. it is failing in pry out categor. Thank you in advance
is there a possibility not to put any reinforcement on the concrete considering the concrete can withstand the load itself? any advise and comments are very much welcome. thank you.
Can someone help to understand how the hilti software compute for the local brick failure(shear). I already tried to search at their manual but i only found tables not the actual computation. Thank you in advance.
