Dear all, My question is that , how to find out the value of "a" of Eurocode which is equivalent to Z factor of UBC.. P.s if anyone can share solved examples regarding eurocode seismic design I shall be grateful. Best Regards,

Will anybody comment on the effect of support settlement of a frame column. One effect will be of change in stresses. Will it increase reaction of that particular support.If yes then how?

What is the effect of support settlement on structure for example a TRUSS? a)Should it have an effect on member forces? b) on joint displacements?

Dear All, I have viewed the tutorial of section cuts in etabs.. also have looked in the help files and done a google on that, but still I couldn't grip it... what i need to see is moments at a certain section of a slab 1) Is the section cut data report along the section line drawn or on the...

Dear All, I have modelled a truss using MBMA Code. I have done it in ETABS . Main load is dead and wind load. the model is attached. please check it for me as I am not satisfied with the deformed shape.. Thanks in advance, Regards,

Hi all.. I have seen some etabs model in which torsion constant for beam and columns is set as 0.01 .. why is it so.. If you can refer any code reference or ready, I shall be greatful.. Regards,

Hi guyz! Has anybody got idea as to how can deflection be reduce of existing slab/beam. I have a situation where floor system has enough deflections to disturb the servicibility of building.

Hi, where can I find code reference to take cracked section properties for seismic analysis... Regards

Hi , I have a question 1) regarding Seismic Response Spectrum. What I donot understand is that how do we obtain the response spectrum of a building which is not physically exisitng? Thanks in advance

Helical staircase design is given in Reynold's Handbook.Has anyone any idea as to how to use those equations.Problem is with the use of values of angles given in those equations.If we use all values in radians then those equations give eroneous results and vice versa.Reasonalable results are...

what if I design wall for fixed support at bottom. I think moment from wall will not be transfered to base slab decause the joint between slab and wall is restrained from rotation. As it will tend to rotate soil pressure below slab and behind wall (passive)will increase which will prevent joint...

Can any body give me the refernce/design calculation of circular reinforced concret stair design. --THANKS IN ADVANCE--

I have query regarding design of base slab in concrete underground water tanks. Will the moments from wall be transfered to base slab? Thanks in advance.
