hi
i would like to ask if a 10m cantilever frame made up of top and bottom circular steel sections infilled with steel plate, would the bottom compression circular chord be subjected to lateral torsional buckling ? if there is, how to braced them ?
Another question is if a 50m roof truss...
Hi
Normally in the steel reinforcement test, we check for yield stress, ultimate tensile stress and elongation. i have come across a case where the rebar had achieved the yield stress and ultimate tensile stress but with very low elongation ? what is the reason ? another question is what is...
What is the difference between portal frame with cladding surrounding 4 sides on plan and the one without in terms of structural analysis ? how do we check the lateral stability of the portal frame in the transverse direction ?
Hi
There is a curved steel truss of 50m span with two steel columns on each side. Transversely, this truss is spaced at 8m for 120m long. May i know how do i check the lateral stability of this long span truss in 120m direction although there are purlins on top of truss and cross bracing at...
Hi
Recently i design a wide rc beam 2.4m x 0.6m with supporting one way rc slab. Should i use the normal design method of RC beam with ratio of width /height <1.0 to design wide beam ? how does the load at the overhang of beam near the small column transfer to the column if we use normal...
