Dear,,,
This is common steel design practice in multistorey buildings called (structure braced by the RC WALL).The two systems addressed in the design :-1/ Gravity load system- that comprises of the slab and beams that transfer GV loads to columns , known as Gravity Columns as they care only of...
dear,,
,,As far as lateral deflection is concerned the BRITISH STANDARD CODE BS8110 PART2 (reinforced concrete code) STATES(Unless partitions, cladding and finishes, etc. have been specifically detailed to allow for anticipated deflections, relative lateral deflection in any one storey under the...
dear,,,NEW BUILDER AND APT
As far as volumetric changes in braced high-rise building with post-tensioningare concerned,i do re-recommend the following:-
1/Columns design is to address the moments caused by the lateral effects due to post-tensioning effects(simplified conjugate beam method helps)...
dear newbuilder,,
Going through the case u raised i would like to comment as follows:-
1/In general the shortening of slabs causes stresses at the columns connections inducing moments which need to be considered in columns design,,,(this is why nominal moments are to be considered in columns...
dear,Pascard,,,
,,,As far as the case u mentioned is concerned i need to hilight the following:-
1/In general the approach seems to be rational,and the structure looks braced as shear walls care of more than 90% of lateral shear (ceb-fip requirements)but some members to be sway ,,,but i have...
