Hi folks,
Don't have much experience in baseplate thickness design but looking to run this by a few more experienced eyes as a quick check. Would usually check this sort of thing in Hilti Profis but wanted to verify by hand.
Would it be acceptable to approximate the baseplate to two beams as I...
Say we have a short span simply supported RC beam with a point load so large at its midspan that the development length required is the full development length of the reinforcement.
Being a simply supported beam set up in this arrangement it's peak moment will be at midspan and the moment goes...
Hi All,
I'm trying to brush up on my masonry design skills. I'm OK with unreinforced masonry but I struggle with reinforced hollowblock masonry design for example. Has anyone got any resources they could share or point me in the direction of that oould help? Preferably anything that is...
Hi All,
Curious to know how you approach this. The beta value factors in the attached photo can be used when adjacent spans do not differ by more than 25% and when the lateral stability does not rely on frame action. When your structures don't satisfy those requirements do you calculate the...
Hi everyone,
My first post so I hope I'm linking the photo correctly. In the attached image I am verifying the spread of the point load and designing the wall. My own intuition is telling me that the spread will only be present through panel A and no load will be spread through panel B. I've...
