    Minimum Edge distance AS 5216

    Good day fellow engineers Is there any minimum edge distance consideration for anchor bolt in AS 5216 just like that in American code? Recently, American code got a 4*db or 6*db depending if it was torque or torque. I can't find this version on AS 5216. It just pertaining to Appendix A of the...

    Stability Loading Combination

    Hello Everyone, I do checking for stability of foundation as per 0.9G (Sec. 4.2.1 AS 1170.0). Now, I will be designing a simple retaining wall and I thought that the load combination at section 4.2.1(b) can be used since there's a lot of destabilization force present. But my checker told me to...

    Long Term Deflection

    Hi all experts, Could you give me any sample calculation involving long term deflection using AS 3600-2018? Its different from 2009 and that of 2009 is almost the same with ACI. I know the code for Ief seems direct and easy for all of you but I would appreciate if there's any sample on it...

    Standard Temperature Drop on Freezer Building

    I have read a post about 2000kN tensile load on a temperature drop in warehouse. Thread was copied below for reference https://www.eng-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=341960... Could anyone tell me how low does a temperature drop to consider this as part of the analysis? Thanks!

    Unsupported Length of Beam when Using Tension Rod

    Hello fellow engineers, I'm just curious if we can reduce the lateral length of a beam if we are using tension rod as collector rather than a horizontal brace? You see, I've been using horizontal brace like angles, HSS and WTs to limit the unsupported length but never tension rod. Most of the...

    Equipment Seismic Load vs Base shear

    Hello fellow engineers, I have an amateur question regarding base shear. The building is an industrial structure with a lot of equipment on the side of the level 2. My question is do I have to add the seismic load computed from ASCE 7-10 Chapter 13 to the calculated over all base shear of the...

    Dynamic Foundation Requirement

    Hello Fellow engineers! I'v been looking on the acceptance criteria on when are we going to analyse an equipment foundation as static or dynamic types. Normally, I look into a certain company's guideline which is stating that a 500rpm or more needs to be designed as dynamic foundation. It also...

    Hydrodynamic on Buried Tanks

    Hello fellow engineers, ACI 350.3 shows how to compute and how to load dynamic analysis for liquid containing structures. I am curious when are we not gonna use this kind of code in a buried structure? Is there a minimum depth that we need to consider? Thanks to all that will answer this
