I have to design a structural frame for garade door, made of shs column and pfc channel section. How do I calulate the wind load on the frame? Can i considered it as free standing wall and calulate the load? Is it necessary to calculate vehicular impact load on the column, it is a residential...

I was trying to test reinforced wire mesh on point load . I modelled the rebar as wire element and assigned it as beam section . I applied tie constraint on horizontal and vertical rebars. The load is only transferred to the applied wire and it is not transferred to adjacent wire. what is the...

When the plate element slenderness is less than yield limit λey, it is non-compact. Why are not we checking λe<λep plastic limit? If λe<λey, while it is not slender, but it still can be non-compact section, whereas if λe<λep, the section will be fully compact If the section is compact, it won't...

"At a composite beam cross-section, the web(s) of the steel beam will normally be subject to combined vertical shear and bending. The design moment capacity of such a cross-section is assumed to be reduced once the shear stresses in the steel web(s) are sufficiently large. Shear reduces the...

What kind of lateral load resisting systems can be used for purely modular construction?

I was trying to test a hemisphere of 2 layer each of 50mm thickness made of different material for impact load and pressure. I received the above error after submitting the job. I modelled the shell(hemisphere) as solid 3d deformable. I think the error is due to meshing, can anybody help me with...

I was modeling beam and slab mat footing in SAFE i think it modeled beam and slab as straight T and L beam as shown below how can i model it as inverted T beam and slab footing

Redline is boundary line ,footing cannot exceed beyound boundary line ,which footing would be most economical for such condition ?

there is torsion in second mode , what might be the reason ? what can be done to make translation in y axis second mode ?

What is max and min pressure? there is positive soil pressure of 36kn/M2 , Does this means soil is in tension and I have to reconfigure my footing dimensions?

what is direction 1 and 2? Is it X and Y axis ? what about the spacing shown above, Is it parallel to 1 direction(X axis)?

This building is going to be constructed on a high earthquake prone area, since the two building are close to each other there is fear of hammering between two building during earthquake . Are there any joints we can make to prevent it?

Does connecting landing slab with column , creates short column effect in column?

There is void in roof of ground floor , now slab has to be made so that we can separate gf and 1f , also 1ft floor will be used as storage so this slab has to carry loads ? Since, it is an RCC structure and construction is already completed .what are all the possible solutions?

Why does the reinforcement near column are larger when i connect staircase slab to column than, when i disconnet them ,is it beacaue of short column effect? disconnected stair slab with column connected staircase slab with column

Why does the longitudinal reinforcement output from response spectrum more than equivalent static ? if i scaled response spectrum value so that seismic base shear is equal in both method , what causes such huge difference in reinforcement output? Output for response spectrum Output for...

why do we provide eccentricity ratio for diaphragm while defining earthquake load(static and response spectrum ) analysis Is it to consider torsional efect due to difference in cm and center of rigidity what will happen if i dont consider eccentricity ratio
