Mike...you are awesome!! Thanks!

Hey Mike, You got time to shoot me over the load table for a "18H6" joist? Thanks!

Exactly what I was looking for, Thanks Mike!

Does any body have the load table or structural properties for this particular joist 24H6. Thanks in advance for the help!

Thanks for all the tips folks, the client was able to locate an old geotechnical report for a building that is on the same property.

Hello All, I'm designing some cast in place pier foundation for a elevated equipment pad. I do not have a soils report and the client does not want to pay for one. That said in using the allowable values in table 1806.2 of the IBC, would it be prudent to add the weight of the concrete in...

Thank you Mike, that was very kind of you!

Thanks,I do vaguely remember using 33 ksi steel from another project I worked on.

Awesome thanks! By the way would you happen to know yield stress for those beams.

If anybody here has the 5th edition of the AISC steel manual, i was hoping you can post the section properties of the members below. -10WF21# -16WF40# -12WF27# -18WF55# -18WF50# -16WF40# Looking for: -flange width -Moment of Inertia, I -Section Modulus, S -radius of gyration, r Thanks in...

Thanks for all the input, for clarification I'm reffering to what I call "system of cantilevered beams" which according to the website posted by BAretired is also called a Gerber beam. In any case a program I used to do the analysis/design (Enercalc) a few years ago no longer has the module on...

Any body know of a good program out there to perform the design/analysis of Cantilever beams systems? Thanks,

I essentially designed it per Ron's description. Triangular stress distibution from top of footing down to bottom of column embedment, resolved the moment with the T-C couple arm and check the actual bearing vs the allowable bearing of the concrete per the ACI and added a few additional ties at...

Thanks for all the help guys, typically I would use a base plate and anchor bolts but the client prefers to just embed the column into the footing. From what I understand this is very common in the solar and carport industry. In any case I got some good advice from my former empolyer and have...

Here is a sketch my project is not quite this scale nor does it invlove a carport structure, essentially the same design concept. http://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=81104488-1bed-485a-828a-a290c341cd6b&file=pier_footing.pdf

no apologies needed,I work in the solar industry and it seems solar racking manufacturers prefers this method of construction.

I haven't been a student for six years...why would it be trick question? cap4000..i'll look into that book you recommended.

Hello, Need some help in figuring out the required embedment length of a wide flange column into a pier footing to fully develop axial and flexure load to the pier. Thanks
