Apologies if this seems like an elementary question, but I haven't been able to confirm the answer searching here or elsewhere. Given: a slender steel column with a downward vertical force P at the top and a sideways force P, also at the top. Assume the material is in the elastic region and...
I'm working on a design that includes a concrete-filled steel tube. Might anyone have equations handy for the moments of inertia when the neutral axis does not go through the center (see attached diagram)?
Referring to the diagram, I'm looking for the MoI of the concrete in compression (area...
Older PE here. I admit I'm rusty and I'm doing my best to get up to current methods and standards.
Project is a self-supported lattice tower with a simple gravity mass footing. Tower mfr. shared some sample calcs with me. Calcs show LRFD basis for wind force and sizing the lattice members...
