    Steel "Unheaded" Stud Anchors in Composite Components

    Hi! I am currently reviewing a proposal involving the use of A-36 "unheaded" stud anchors welded to a steel pile plug for concrete shear transfer, where tension is not anticipated. As per my examination of AISC360-16, specifically in the I.8 Steel Anchors chapter, the documentation primarily...

    Applicability of moment of inertia reduction on beam/slab on grade

    Hi there! ACI 318-19 states at Table 6.6.3.1.1(a) that a moment of inertia reduction is permitted for elastic analysis at factored load level of nonprestressed beams (0.35 x Ig) and slabs (0.25 x Ig), where Ig is the moment of inertia of gross concrete section. The question is rather simple...

    ASCE 7 seismic reduction factor (R) for a crane supporting frame

    Dear all, I'm reviewing a design of a crane supporting frame (near 10 m high and 20 m in width) which is connected from one column side to the other by tension-only rods and a light-weight non-structural roof. In this direction, the foundation footings are connected by beams. We're talking...

    Heavy Duty Pavement on Rockfill

    Dear all, We're currently supporting the design of a flexible pavement on a rockfill (1-1000kg), with expected high/very high subgrade reaction modulus. The C8/10 layer is defined according to Material Equivalence Factor (MEF). However, there is no/very little reference to high strength...

    Size effect factor in thick slabs

    Hi there, ACI 318-19 presentes throughout its new version a size effect factor, which directly reduces shear strength in thick slabs, for example. In my case, I do have really thick slab subjected to high shear load. The shear concrete strength (Vc) of my 150 cm (59'') slab 40 MPa (6000 psi)...
