While designing any pipe rack / process structure, wherein piping loads play a significant role, do those piping thermal loads (guide / anchor in specific ~ thermal component of course ... which are normally treated as Dead Load)are ADDITIVE with amplified seismic loads?
In particular the...
Hey All,
Could you please throw some light onto the design principles of a single plate shear connection, often referred to a shear tabs - when axial force is travelling through beam ends.
I am working in a project wherein connection design falls into Fabricator's scope - my job is to furnish...
It is common knowledge that maximum practical fillet weld size is ½” (13mm) – common practice to employ another type of weld, such as groove weld, when the calculated weld is greater than ½”(13 mm).
Typically CJP welds are the most expensive weld and I feel the same should be reserved for...
Friends,
Greetings.
Need your advice.
Topic - Design of gusseted/stiffened base plate in consonance with LRFD design principles
Question: Could anyone apply Roark's formula while using factored level forces for base plate design?
Since one of the chief assumption of Roark's formulas is...
Hello Everyone,
I have one question as to the applicability/feasibility of lateral forces (?) on the bottom-running monorails systems - travelling along the bottom flange of the supporting beam.
Understandably, in case of top running crane girders lateral surge force is mainly derivative of...
