Hi all,
I have a question regarding a beam to column (hinged) connection (see the attached file).
The beam transmits a reaction F to the flange of the column with an eccentricity e from the centerline of the column. Should I check the column with a bending moment M = F*e?
Thank you in...
Hello everyone,
I am trying to check a connection between a HEA400 and a IPE450 and I have the following question, see also the attached sketch.
The diagonal of the horizontal wind bracing is connected eccentrically to the HEA400. The force in the diagonal gives two components. One parallel...
Hello everyone,
I have a beam to beam simple connection (beams 1-2). As you can see in the attached image, there is an eccentricity, because of the distance between the bolts and beam 1. Should the connection and beam 2 be designed to take the bending moment which arises from this eccentricity...
Hello everybody,
I have a concrete T beam and I want to calculate the reinforcement. The flanged part of the beam is under compression and the height of the compression zone is less than the height of the flange. Apart from the bottom of the beam, where the reinforcement will be applied, do I...
Hello everybody,
Let’s say I have beam 1, which is connected with beam 2, which runs in the transverse direction. Beam 2 is actually hanging from beam 1 and they are connected through a bolted connection on the top flange of beam 2 and the bottom flange of beam 1. The bolts are subjected to...
