Hi Engineers, Can someone help me with standard reference for galvanized steel gate for airport perimeter fence? Erasa

Hi Engineers, I have been asked to design a manhole size 1.5m x 2m x 2.5m deep which will receive traffic loading. I am designing the walls and base as propped cantilever retaining structure with H20-44 loading (wheel load as my imposed load). My question is, do i have to use the wheel load as...

Thank you all for your help. Any comment(s) on the attached document relating to rebar position 333 & 324, and 331 & 332 in relation to the Elevation and Section B-B. I am thinking bar mark 332 should be on top of mark 331 in section. Also mark 324 should be on top of 333...

Hi Engineers, I am looking for an Online Initial Professional Development Courses in Structural Engineering Designs to UK standards. Any ideas or advice would be much appreciated. Erasa

Dear all, I am designing a foundation for a mast using EN1992 but I used ASCE 7-5 (as indicated in local standards) in estimating the wind load. My question; 1)Is there any rule for consistency in using codes for design? 2)If I am using EN1992 do I have to use Eurocodes throughout my design or I...

Hi jayrod12 Panel "B" is 550 x 450 x 450 (W x D x H); all in mm Panel "A"&"C" are 360 x 110 x 250 (W x D x H); all in mm

Hi Engineers, I am to design a steel support 1.5m high to carry three electrical panels and a spread foundation as attached. I am looking at using the MWFRS (ASCE 7) procedure in estimating the lateral force. Any ideas on how to estimate the projected area...

Thanks, i really appreciate this.

Again, thank you all. EireChech, i will be constructing a mat foundation for a mast; size say 10x10m and the site is a flat terrain.

Thanks very much. The site is a Telecom site.

Hi Engineers, Can someone tell me the minimum distance between borehole logs or number per area, any standard reference?

Hi Engineers, Could someone clarify the statement; “area of bar in pairs”? I came across this in a steel reinforcement area table from an RC Workbook and I am wondering if this is applicable to RC Walls. Please see attached. Any other references would be much appreciated. Erasa...

Hi Engineers, What is the limit of a sensor mast (height = 10m) from the center of a taxiway? Any reference and recommendation?

Yes Ingenuity/Dik, the question is; I wish to ASSESS an existing structure for the likelihood of cracking prior to coring operations. The purpose is to core the structure(manhole) to create hole for ducts. Erasa

Hi Engineers, There is the need for me to access an existing structure against cracks when coring. Is there any calculation I can do or any test to carry out to prove this? Any help?

Can someone clarify the role of a Civil Designer and that of a Civil Design Engineer for me?

Thank you all for your input.

Dik, i am putting ducts in the trench and planning to backfill this with concrete to support the existing slab. And with the large pit to support the slab; I want to support the slab first before excavating to the required depth. Hokie66, how i wish i can do as you proposed but i am afraid it...

Hi Engineers, I am looking for the best way to support an existing slab (300mm thick) on grade before excavation under the slab to pass my services. See attached; assuming the slab is weak and not reinforced. Also assume the soil to be weak...
