Do anyone have experience with fatigue verification of a steel (S355) section exposed to corrosion? Will the detail category decrease due to the corrosion.
I can't find anything in Eurocode describing this subject?
I have a steel column welded on a base plate, size 500x400x30mm. Anchors are M48, which are preloaded. The steel column is connected to a concrete pile.
1) Which grout thickness should be used?
2) Dynamic/fatigue load occur in the connection (preloading anchors are used). Working life is 120...
I have a steel column connected to a concrete pile with preloaded anchors and grout.
What is the best way for leveling the steel column before grouting. Using normal leveling nuts will not work as the preloading length shall correspond to the entire anchor length. I have heard something about...
I have a concrete slab, which are restrained in both ends.
When designing for cracks in SLS, do I have to consider stresses from shrinkage and stresses from static load separately. Or shall I add the stresses together?
I am designing an I-beam for torsion.
The FE-program gives the St. Venant torsion. Is it allowed to design the I-beam using this St. Venant torsion only (and neglecting the warping torsion)? Is it a conservative assumption?
Eurocode states that I-beams shall be designed to warping torsion. But...
