Hello fellow engineers.
In strut and tie method of deep beam design, the are certain stress limit that needs to be satisfied at the node region. In the Canadian bridge code, there is another equation that shows the limiting compressive stress in concrete strut (fcu) based on the tensile strain...
Dear altruists, to analyse the pile group (attached), should the pile cap be considered rigid or not? The shear span to depth ratio is more than 2 (2.6). However, it's very common to consider pile cap rigid, and I guess L-pile can not assign a flexible pile cap (I'm a structural designer). I'm...
