Sounds like a silly question but is there a way we can retrieve an excel format pasted in word document? Lets say, I have an excel design calculation then I paste it in word document as picture, Is there a way it can be pasted back in excel and retrieve the same formatting including the...

Sorry, but I am new to this term; What does it mean by probability seismic hazard analysis(PSHA)?

Thank you for the response guy but I want to make my question clearer. I have that block foundation supporting a vertical vessel; I have the loads including seismic loads provided by the equipment group, which I only have to load on the top of foundation. My question is, if I still have to...

This sounds silly but Is there a seismic load for structure below the ground level? I.e. a 3m x 3m x 2m block foundation and embedded 1.5m below the soil. My colleagues calculate the seismic force as a factor (0.1~0.4) of the foundation weight using Table 18-I-C of UBC 94; I think this is wrong...

Thanks Electricpete! I protected my worksheet. Aerohap, I'll consider your comment too.

I want to protect some cells of my spreadsheet not the whole worksheet. I want my spreadsheet in a way that, even though it is copied to another sheet, only the values will be pasted not the formula. How can I do that? Thanks!

Thanks for the input guys. By the way, I work with an EPC company specializing in petrochemical projects and I deal with several design subcontractors. Its been the cause of arguments in my office because some engineers insist to put tie beams because they said its a common practice in the...

Aside from controlling differential settlements of foundations, structurally speaking, what are the uses of tie beams/footing girders in a structure? I noticed, some engineers model their structure with tie beams while some are not. why?
