I was shocked seeing the BIG BANNER "you don't have the privilege to post here ?
your site is Great, just don't corrupted it with destructive ideas from British dinosaurs clubs
Can you recommend a comprehensive textbook that provides detailed design examples, design case studies, and step-by-step guidelines on Seismic reinforcement detailing in accordance with IBC, ACI, and ASCE-7 standards for structural engineers?
Kindly read the following conversation between two structural engineers and suggest a practical solution to the given problem:
Friend (1)
if you have spliced steel box girder (composite type with top concrete deck) with internal tendons (harped shape), when will be the time to pull the internal...
Dear Friends,
if you have specific code (ACI, CAN, AS or EN)of design that cover the shear design reinforcement of variable depth beam
thanks in advance for your help ...
Dear Friends,
looking for old practical textbooks that cover construction of "corrugated steel water tank" of large scale if possible..
any related mechanical textbook that deals with manufacturing aspects also welcomed
Friend came to me asking for a structural solution for construction mistake, that some column were rotated (90 degrees)
my suggestion was to similar to below drawings. Also we i searched for others solutions found similar techniques
My question is there any other better solution
Would like to...
Dear Friends,
This question came through friend, asking for information about ACI (if any) related to slab concealed (hidden) beam ?
What's your professional opinion about its structural effectiveness ?
Are they widely used or only when its last resort ?
1- From a construction perspective, what are the construction obstacles for double-skin composite walls (DSCWs) implemented as shear walls? (first picture)
2- Are they widely implemented in steel buildings?
3- Compared to ordinary RC shred-walls, are they much superior in terms of their...
What's your opinions on following lack of QC/QA control of major highway bridge ?
can you estimate actual reduction percentage of bearing capacity of these curved box girder ?
Is there a reliable testing method that could investigate the propagated corrosions among rebars ?
Can loading test...
My question is that accepted Temp SHORING SYSTEM OF SUCH LARGE WEIGHT STRUCTURE ???
I even seen the 2nd leader of country tacking picture with this construction company ?
Iam confused ! this should be steel TEMP SHORING SYSTEM ?
hi,
looking for reference that deals with following thread subject
thanks for your kind support and assistance ..

Hi,
looking for textbook that deals with design of oil storage shell/vessel (similar to below picture)
with special attention to wind and seismic loadings,
Thanks in advance for your guidance and support.
Note, any reference with FEM modeling of such kinds will be also helpful
I had some difficulties concerning the post-punching behavior of flat slab [reinforced with tensile and Integrity steel rebars]
Different Solvers were used; Standard static and dynamic implicit type also. And most of times, solutions ends due to instabilities errors.
Now I am trying different...
Dear Friends,
Field observations along with the surface manifestations of the 7.7 and 7.6 Magnitude Earthquakes in Kahramanmaraş, Pazarcı.
this incident give us a small picture of what will be happen in Oil refineries / chemical processing plants !!!!
Is there a unified [like IBC]...
Dear colleagues,
I have an old building with deteriorating slab (corroded rebars), so we decide to remove all concrete slabs (panel by panel) from three story building (bearing brick-wall system)
Renovation will be
- demolition of existing slab
- open holes [30x50 cm ] on bearing Brick-walls...
Are you in favor of the "inevitable" 3D printing technology
since earth resources will diminished sooner than we thought
Any research on Cold/Hot climate construction applications ???
Note; check below some great engineers in this field (WASP & Birds)
Dear Friends,
looking for basic truss configuration [geometry] that deals with long span [120FT / 36 Meters] with 30FT Hight [9 meters]
its for closed stadium
1- any references with similar applications ?
2- Is Tubular Arch section [compared to I-sections ] less/more expensive for this type of...
Dear Colleagues
What is the practical depth/Span ratio for a Cantilever beam ?
thinking of overhang Plate girders set that cover 60' long [18.3 meters] and 20' wide [6 meters]
thinking of 1/10 ?
this is kind bizarre, but it a monument kind structure, made for main terminal express welcomed sign...
Dear Friends
i have storage water tank structure [serve as building roof and storage tank]
for concrete slab structure (span 16 meters) applied loading 20+22 KPa [kN/m2]
1- my assumed slab depth is L/18 ---> H=16e3/18 =900 mm (DL = 22 KPa)
if i switch to prestressed slab
2- what will be the slab...
