Hi,
We have to design a rcc frame structure.I have a query about this .We have to design a building which LL=80psf,slab thickness 6".A Beam tributary area is about 340 sft,beam size 12"x20".How to reduce the depth of this beam?If we design it as a t-beam is it sufficient?

Dear Engineers,
I have a query.We have to construct a semi-basement with 10 storied building.My question is we decide that we have to limit basement height in 9',but if we increase its height then make it 10',then is there any chance of any design mistake?My senior tell me that if basement floor...
Hello,
In rcc column casting how many times we can casting each column?
Say can we casting a 12' column or 10' column in 3-4 times?Which precaution we may follow in this situation?
if f'c=3 ksi ,fy=60 ksi
Sorry for my bad english.

Hello,
In practical work we see that dovetail lapping is mostly used,but just now I found something different.Have a look in this image.
Now why this engineer prohibit dovetail lapping in column?If we use lapping with dowel bar,how to joint dowel bar with main reinforcement? By Welding or by...
Hello,
I am in confusion on changing beam alignment.Here are two beam alignment.Beam size and reinforcement are given also.But I want to know which is structurally safe or not and why.Please experts gives your best opinion.And the reinforcement and concrete section is sufficient?

Dear engineer,
I have a query about column design.We designed a 11 storied building.Which a column size is 12''x 36''.Which As=13.2 in²-3.05%.
But my project engineer argue this size,he suggested me to keep column size 15''x 36'' for workmanship.Also from architectural point of view we have to...

Hello Engineers,
For G+10 storied concrete building is it correct to choose column least dimension 12 in?? Some expert says for 10+ storied rcc building it is best to choose column least dimension 15 in.But my structure says it is satisfied in 12 inch.
N.B.=My column sizes are
(12 in x 30...
