Hi All,
I'm currently designing a self-standing concrete water tank to AS3735 (Concrete structures for retaining liquids). As per the code, you need to account for the forces (F_shrinkage and F_Swelling)from shrink/swell moisture variations. The code provides a table of mean shrinkage and...
Hi all, I'm looking for some guidance on the difference between the resonant/steady state and transient vibration.
I'm designing a steel staircase in a public building and I'm currently checking it for footfall vibrations. I'm doing the analysis in Autodesk Robot Structural Analysis package...
Hi,
I'm an Australian structural engineer and am currently trying to define the total deflection criteria for a timber floor. In the Australian standard AS1720.1 you determine a modification factor for creep (j2). The dead load deflection is noted by δG and the live load deflection is noted by...
