Hi,
Is there a guide specifying the conservative resistance of different trees to lateral load? I have seen a dam boom attached to 2 gigantic trees, one on each side of a river. My idea is that it would imply to have a biologist evaluate the type of tree, its health, root cover, etc.
Hi,
There is a situation where there is a carbon steel S-beam in bending. There is a vertical load in the middle of the length of the beam. Thus, the beam is in bending. The beam has a low ductility but has no cracks.
If a crack appears, what is the most likely place where it will appear on...
