    Concrete Pressure on Inclined Formwork

    BA, Appreciate your posts/sketches. I agree that concrete axial force does not transfer thru bulkhead form. Your vector method and Bridge 100 cos^2 method produces the same results. One last thing..Looking at the liquid Concrete sketch you provided the Normal force (N) shall read: 150h^2/(2...

    Concrete Pressure on Inclined Formwork

    BA, I seem to disagree with your assumption that the axial component is W/sin 70. Axial component should be W*sin 70 as Bridge 100 has insisted. And if dealing with a uniform load say (x) then axial load would be (w)sin^2 70 as was discussed in bridge 100 first post. When dealing with...
