    Aluminium Design:- How to calculate αc (alpha c) in table 8.2, BS-EN-1999-1-1-2023

    It's for the part of the cross section you are considering. Outstand for the flanges and internal part for the web. You would calculate the stress distribution in the flanges and the web and then class each part of the cross section. Depending on your loading you will have a different alpha...

    Engineering Design 'Stack'

    Does every company do this? Mine has done it twice now changing to Nuance before reverting back to Adobe; and then changing to NitroPro before reverting back to Adobe again.

    Aluminium Design:- How to calculate αc (alpha c) in table 8.2, BS-EN-1999-1-1-2023

    I believe you calculate alpha from the actual stress distribution in the member cross section. So under axial and bending you need to calculate the point at which the stress changes from tension to compression. This gives you alpha. It is the same in EC3.

    US Standards for Stairs, Walkways and Handrails

    I am looking for some pointers to the correct US standards for the design of stairs, access platforms, walkways and handrails. I have had a look at the OSHA website but I'm finding it difficult to sort through the information, and I'm not even sure I'm in the correct place. I'm based in the UK...

    Principle Engineer Qualifications

    The company I work for has the same approach as bugbus. It's just one level above Senior, and there are still levels above Principal (Specialist, Consultant) so it isn't even that high a level. We have lots and lots of Principals and none of them have any control/stake in the company. I'm in...

    fibrelass vs. concrete

    I would also think they would get damaged by lawn mowing equipment. We also used to use Mortsafes https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mortsafe Although the original driver for these has long gone.
