This is in the context of a steel framed building. In the modeler, when your deck edge is set at 0" offset, the line is drawn basically on top of your perimeter beams. Generally not a problem, but when I am viewing color coded beam design results, I can't see the colors of the beam lines...

We have a project with overhangs that are desired to be very thin. It is a mixed wood/steel structure. To accommodate this, I am thinking of using an HSS steel frame with 2x4 infill. Each interior face of the HSS frame will have a ledger for boundary nailing. However, the steel frame itself will...

I understand the C&C wind pressure on roof overhangs is the sum of the pressures on the top and bottom surfaces. The equation in ASCE 7 is p = qh*(Gcp-GCpi) where Gcp is defined as "the sum of the GCp of the overhang's top and bottom surfaces". By defining GCp as the sum of the external GCp...

I looked for a thread on this but didn't see anything. If this has already been discussed, please kindly post a link. Just noticing this in TJ-9000: I use excel spreadsheets to calculate my beams. Does anyone have a reference for calculating bending + shear deflection for other loading...

When using the exception to deformation compatibility for in plane shear distribution, do you apply the capacity reduction for high aspect ratio shear walls (h/b>2) after or before force distribution? Assume all shear walls in a line are of the same construction. If you apply the capacity...

I’d like to get opinions on the shear transfer of an upper wall into the floor system at the exterior of a multi-story building (2-5 floors), using bottom plate nailing only. The nail is in single shear with the bottom plate as the side member. In order to design the nail per NDS Table 12N...

I am looking at adding an addition onto the short end of an existing pole barn. The addition would be the same width as the pole barn and have a length of about 25% of the length of the pole barn. Initial research suggests the site is entirely clay which is subject to shrink/swell behavior...

Is this software still available from the original creator? I can't find it online. All that comes up is a spam software download site which has grabbed and re-packaged it. I haven't designed a PT slab on grade in years, so I am out of the loop. Does anyone know if there was some history in...
