Thanks all, Thats what I am planning to do ..... cheers camel7

Hi I am working on A steel column which is supported on a steel beam. The steel column is having compression load of 550KN with no moments. For designing the base plate do I need to check for the base plate thickness? When I calculate baseplate thickness based on equation tmin = L* SQRT (2...

Thanks for the replies, Yes The Wharf is supported by pile with concrete deck. I did the Structural design and analysis of modules separtely and transfered the reactions over to the wharf. but when I check the design of the overall model with wharf and structural modules quite a few members...

Hi, I am Designing Structural modules which will supported on Wharf. For design and analysis of modules I have used spring support to simulate the actual behaviour of modules on Wharf, I dervied the spring stiffness from analysing the wharf separetly and inputing this deck stiffness in the...

Thanks amec2004, for the detailed responce. this was a greta help... cheers

YOu dont design the 1 st level beams for spmt loads?? how is the stability taken care of?

I want to know how to do the Load in /Load out analysis. cheers

I am working on modularisation of a structure. I have a mining steel structure which we are prefabricating and will be transporting it from road. cheers

Hi, I am presently designing a structural module and got struck with loadout anaylsis. just wanted to check if anyone has done this before would love to get more insight of all the possible consideration and references. If anyone has some sample calculation would be of great help. thanks camel
