Hi
In the code this clause is not totally clear R21.5.4.2
when he calculate MPl, which combinations he used is it the envelope combinations for all cases(gravity +lateral) or envelope for earthquake combinations only
and regarding wu he will take only the combinations for gravity load only or...
Hi guys
We all know the concept of development length for steel bars in concrete(ACI CODE),now of composite beams with I steel beam (AISC)for example if the steel and concrete are acting together using steel concrete bond or using shear studs ,in this case there is no need for development...
Hello Guys
1) I am designing according to the ACI code, but I would like to follow the IBC for earthquake zone design instead of ASCE, so my question if I do so which load combinations I should pick, the one based on IBC,or the one based on ASCE(the same as ACI) to make results consistent or it...
Hello,
1. As far as I know the development length should be developed from both side of the maximum moment point,hence for negative moment for the top steel corner ,we use hook to achieve development form the end corner side and use straight length from the other continuous side
2. If what I...
