I have a heavy duty door, lets say 40kN. I have to design a stopper to qualify the door for design basis earthquake. Now, lets say I use the floor response spectrum, and it is acceleration of 1 g.
I need to find the design load for the stopper.
Now, I assume a force of 40kN (40/g*1g)...
For eccentrically braced frame, with link beam, what would e usually be?
As well, it says in the code the laterally support the top and bottom flange of the link beam at the end. How to support the bottom flange laterally? Connect an angle to the jbottom/top of the closest beams/joist? How...
There is usually Inside Vertical Face and Outside Vertical Face for a retaining wall and a foundation wall. Which face is the "inside face" and which face is the "outside face?
Thanks.

I am a little confused about the different load combinations to check for a gerber system. Is the load combination LL+DL whole length, DL whole length +1/2LL on cantilever and DL whole length +1/2LL middle?
Why 1/2LL? Obviously LL+DL whole length would govern.
My other question is how to...
I am mounting multiple panels onto unistruts, all panels have different sizes. How are they usually mounted? Bolted at any spots or they have hooks at the edges?
I am not sure if Angles can take moment, and therefore
act as beams.
But I have seen angles used as a holder for windows or studs.
Can angles take uniform load (moment) then?
Thanks
Does pile caps have to be below frost depth?
So if I have grade beams, then its minimum thickness
would be 4feet? Lets say I designed a grade beam to be
500mm thick, do I have to make it 1.2m?
