I am invoved in the design of an octogonal shaped RCC building.
Is there a design procedure or a handbook to design V shaped RCC columns (with an included angle of 135 deg.)?
Thanks for the help

I have to support an equipment on a structural frame resting on a set of existing roof beams. The lateral deflection of the frame consists of two parts, viz. the lateral deflection of the frame and the additional lateral deflection due to the differential vertical deflections of the supporting...

Recently, I and my colleague had an argument.
I am designing a foundation for a framed structure. The soil is good with Safe bearing capacity of 30T/Sq.m. for 25 mm. settlement as per the soil investigation report.
I have modelled the frame with fixed base and obtained the axial load and...
Is the composition of Cryogenic concrete different from normal concrete? I tried to search in the web but I do not find any specific definition for it.
Any information or website reference available?
Thanks for the help.

I was referring to the following clause in Eurocode-2 (EN 1992-1-1).
The clause 6.4.4 (2) defines the punching shear strength of a concentrically loaded concrete column base as below:
Vrd = Crdc*k*(100*p*fck)1/3*2d/a >= Vmin * 2d/a
ie. Vrd = (Expression1) >=(Expression2)
I interpret the...

Dear all
I have submitted the following Thread in the RESEARCH ENGINEERS- STAAD PRODUCTS Forum under the title,'A Simple problem but puzzling', which I came across in STAAD analysis
The problem is a little strange and defys logic. One of the forum members has confirmed that the anamoly is...
I had a peculier observation in analysing a simple single bay single storyed symmetrical frame,with fixed supports and with a uniformly distributed load on the beam.
A very simple problem to solve indeed. The moment at the column base shall be 50% of the moment at the top of the column. Since...
