Hi, I have been trying to replicate furnace heating of a concrete block in ABAQUS, with the mode of heat transfer used as convection. I have temperature-time data in the amplitude, transient step, temperature related input such as density, conductivity, and specific heat. But every time I ran...
Hi, I'm new to ABAQUS and would like to ask questions about to model my concrete block under furnace condition. But I am not sure what I am supposed to do on Abaqus (would like to see temperature/time etc on the mesh model).
1. What is the best way to simulate the concrete block under fire? Is...
Hey guys, can anyone tell me the process of distressing ground anchor? In construction, we use some kind of machine that pulled tendon from an open end. I assumed that this method is also work for installation of temporary ground anchor, is this correct? But how do we release the stress? do we...
Hey guys, what is the best way to estimate water inflow into drained and hybrid basement? Is there any specific tools or equipment that I could use to accurately measured them? Currently, I'm using flow net to estimate water inflow for hybrid basement. For drained basement, I simply assumed that...
I would like to ask a few question for levelling. Is it even possible to measure the height different at the same location? For example, I want to measure the height of a tree at the bottom and at the top of the tree using levelling. Is this possible? If so how would one do it. (Automatic...
Hi
I'm having a problem calculating the peak undrained strength, Suv. The problem I have is that I'm unsure of which equation I can use to calculate it (see attachment for equipment dimension and data (11.1m)). I have two equations with me, the first one is Suv=12T/(pi*D^2*(2D)+6H) and the...
Hi, this is my first year doing engineering site characteristic. I would like to ask a few questions in regard to modified proctor compaction test result.
For example, I have two test results.
12% @ 100lb/ft^3
and
15% @ 110lb/ft^3
What is the meaning of these numbers?
I assume that 100lb or...
Hi guys, I have a question I would like to ask about calculating water in high-rise building.
Assuming that there is a water tank on the roof of a 200m tall building. The height of water in this tank is 2metres and will always remain 2metres. For simplicity, assume that each floor has a height...
