Hello Everyone,
I need some good references that discuss repair and rehabilitation for different concrete structural elements like slabs, beams and columns and elaborate about tests that are required to examine the structure and applying their output through examples and calculations to...
Thanks everybody for your answers and suggestions.
The second floor is also flat. The main material used in my area is concrete so i was wondering if solid slab (slab with beams) or two way ribbed slab(waffle)are good options?
Hello Colleagues,
What is the best structural system for a two story (10m*15m) auditorium with no columns at the middle?
Edited?
It is a Reinforced Concrete auditoriums
Hey retired13,
I was looking for a specific book or reference like a design handbook with details. Google search will show general information about the topic without details
Hello,
Is there any useful reference for designing elevated steel water tanks like considering all the loads on the tank and the tower with some examples
Thanks
You are right guys, That's why i thought about this since steel (bending and torsion) are additive and loads can't distinguish between the purposes of placing them.
I think that "hardbutmild" has made a good point about the distribution of longitudinal torsional steel in tension and compression...
Hello,
Is there a maximum limit for longitudinal torsional reinforcement in beams? because in some cross sections in beams, i see a very high reinforcement ratio ( due to bending and torsion) which could lead the beam to be over reinforced which we are not willing to have.
So how can we have...
Hello retired13,
For limiting deflection in code, Should i use L/20 for simply supported slab or L/28 for two end continuous since the the slab is connected directly to beams and they are cast integrally which could give high rigidity connection?
The beams are not connected to columns. There...
Hello fellow engineers,
I have a 4m*15m slab with beams cast together on four sides and supported by a bearing wall..Can we consider the slab as one way slab?
Is the slab simply supported or cont.from two edges due to stiffness between slab and beam so we can find its thickness using equations...
