Shear Flow In Built Up Members
When calculating the shear flow at connections between two dissimilar materials (e.g. Wood beam with steel channel side by side), when would you apply the modular ratio? I've seen examples two ways: 1) Simply divide it in the final shear flow equation q = (V*Q)/(I*n) 2) Use the modular ratio...- Jake AA

23K column load on cantilevered slab
Currently designing a custom home with a 23.1k (15.4D / 7.7L) loaded column at the edge of a 4'-0" max cantilevered slab with 10" backspan thickness, and 24" cantilevered thickness. The 24" cantilevered thickness can be used at the column but will be furred to depth elsewhere to reduce weight...- Jake AA
