Hey,
I am working on trying to model a push pole to replace a downguy for a utility pole, our design software is not capable of modeling a push pole. Initially I modeled it simply by determining the static forces that apply to the guy from the primary and neutral conductors and then...
Hey,
I am working on designing a slab on grade for three pad mount transformers. The desire is to have all three on the same pad. Waiting on manufacture drawing to determine loading. Also requested any soil info we have.
I ordered an ACI 360 book to start. Should there be any other manuals I...
I have a question regarding determining the ultimate vertical loading of a wood beam.
I have testing data to start. In the test its three planks of wood that are layed horizontally on top of each other. A balanced horizontal longitudinal load is applied simitaniously at 4 locations on the beam...
Hey, I started a new job recently and for it I'd like to review and refresh my statics skills. I've been looking back through my statics book as a start, but wanted to know if there were any spreadsheets or software available for loading beams to determine moment and shear forces at an arbitrary...
Hey guys, I have been trained through the military for some surveying, but real world experience.
I am trying to establish a benchmark for doing some RTK surveys around out facility. This benchmark will be for internal use only.
Our equipment is rather old, a zephyer geodetic (no gnss)...
Hello everyone!
Background:
I previous posted on here before about design for electric distribution pole. I interviewed for a position at a large utility company and believe I might be offered the position. The position would mainly involve distribution pole foundation design (software...
First just want to give you all a little background about myself. I graduated with my CE degree in 2012 with a focus in environmental. Right out of school I started with a construction company and have been with them ever since. I am also in the military and an engineering assistant, so that...
