@WAROse hey sorry i meant ASCE 7-16, got mixed up sometimes

Hello, Im tryna find this Tc to compare with my Ta calculated by formula. Im using ASCE 7-10-2016 on seismic design. Where do i get this Tc in STAAD.Pro? BR,

Thank u seth, really helpful!

Hello, Does anybody knows how to get a story shear output in STAAD.Pro? Regards,

hello eng-tips, i wanna ask how do you design properly the tie beam? i always use the moment from base column (fixed base support) to design the properties (geometri and steel reinforcement) and its the same value of steel along the beam (from the support to middle and to support again). theres...

@kootk can you guide me step to step how to design it? its a 3 stories underground basement

Hello engtips im designing a rafter for structural roof frame, why do we have to haunch the beam? is it the same as the tappered member? how do i calculate the nominal strength of the haunch section? and the eaves and apex connection, does anybody have a design guide with american code(AISC), i...

@kootk this is the plan view of sap2000 i got from him, the spacing between grade beam is 8m, the thickness of slab is 300mm and those grade beams are 1000mm depth, the end span of beam have less amount of reinforced bar than the middle...

@KootK and @jayrod12 this is the sketch made by my senior, can you please explain whats going on? note: sloof is a ground beamhttp://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=a918dd5f-7e86-487f-ade9-c44e84513036&file=ask.PNG

whats an elevated slab with beam? can you give some pictures to explain? what if the beams are hidden in the raft? whats the purpose of doing such thing like that?

hello engtips users i wanna ask what are the considerations of using this ribraft foundation thing? what are the advantages and disadvantages? what are some load applied on it? how do we design the slab and the beam? thank you...

@kootk thank you! do you know some provision that regulate such thing like the dimension and stuff?

@trenno no im not, its a multistory car park, it needs the ramp to move to another level right?

@molibden yeah thank you i didnt see the advantages and the disadvantages earlier, do you have any guide on how to design a ramp?

@ingenuity yes! thank you so much, do you know why would we should use some kind of beam that lack of moment of inertia like that? do you have more references that you could email me maybe?
