I found this really great article on LRFD baseplate design for those who are interested. One of the authors was one of my professors at Cal Poly. Here is the link http://www.ce.berkeley.edu/~boza/courses/cee248/literature/AISC_EJ_Drake-Elkin.pdf Now i ahve another question though how do you...

asixth i wholeheartedly agree with you sometimes i do feel like you just described. Thankfully there are other engineers here on the forum that can help and also i am thankful we have a really good new structural department head at my company the only bad part is he is usually busy and i don't...

I AM USING THE 13TH EDITION BUT I FOUND IT ON THE 3RD EDITION ON THE PAGES YOU HAVE SPECIFIED THANKS! HOWEVER THESE ARE FOR AXIAL COMPRESSION AND DO NOT TAKE INTO ACCOUNT FLEXURE.

IT APPEARS THAT THERE WERE SOME PROBLEMS WITH THE SECOND EDITION AND THEY HAD TO PULL IT OFF THE WEBSITE. THEY ARE ONLY REDOING DG1. AT LEAST THATS THE INFO I GOT WHEN I TRIED TO DOWNLOAD IT. DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY EXAMPLES I CAN FOLLOW WITHOUT INFRINGING ON COPYRIGHTS?

THANKS FOR THE SUGGESTIONS I CHECKED THE NEWEST STEEL MANUAL I COULD NOT FIND AN EXAMPLE I WILL KEEP LOOKING THOUGH. I ALSO CHECKED THE AISC WEBSITE FOR THE DESIGN MANUAL BUT AISC IS CURRENTLY REVISING THIS MANUAL AND I COULD NOT GET IT. I AM NOW LOOKING TO USE A TRANSFORMED AREA METHOD AND...

I AM TRYING TO DESIGN A STEEL BASE PLATE FOR A COLUMN CONNECTION BUT I AM HAVING TROUBLE FINDING A DESIGN GUIDE. CAN ANYONE GIVE ME THE TYPES OF THINGS TO CHECK FOR AND FAILURE MECHANISM AND A POSSIBLY A DESIGN GUIDE TO FOLLOW. PU= 10 KIPS VU= 4.5 KIPS MU= 53 KIP-FT 4 ANCHOR BOLTS 4000 PSI...

I am using a ring wall because we have limited space and a square or octagonal foundations are too big for the space alloted.

THE EQN CAN BE FOUND ON API 650 TENTH EDITION ADDENDUM 1,2,3,4 PAGE E-13 JUST BELOW SECTION E.6.2.1.2 THIS EQN IS TO FIND THE TENSION IN THE ANCHOR BOLTS SO I FIGURED THAT IF INSTEAD OF SUBTRACTING I ADDED THE PRESSURE DUE TO THE SHELL LINE LOAD AND THE PRESSURE DUE TO SEISMIC EFFECTS THEN I...

I am designing a ringwall foundation for an above ground tank. I am not sure how to find the max bearing pressure on the soil due to the weight and moment of the tank. There is an equation in the api 650 which is what i am using for the design. The eqn is as follows (1.273Mrw/D^2)-(wt(1-.4Av)...

Thank you this has been helpful. Tngolfer- your right i am going to increase the size to 16x16 plate. the plate will be bearing directly on concrete(grout) so chichuck if you have a link for a little more info on the method of design of welded structures i would really appreciate it. Thank...

I am a recent graduate and i am designing a T shaped pipe rack. I have gotten to the point where i need to specify the embedment depth for anchor bolts. However i am not sure how to find the tension in the anchor bolts. I believe i am supposed to use P/A - M/S but this equation will give me a...
