Hi all,
I am doing some FEA and FEM and was trying to fully grasp the governing design concepts for ultimate as well as serviceability limit state design. From my understanding long term deflection due to creep (serviceability) usually governs slab thicknesses, while ultimate loads usually...
Hi,
I am in the early process of designing a pool. Are reinforced concrete pools designed based on retaining walls or cantilever slabs fundamental principles? And what is the general process to pool design? I was told by one of my colleagues that it should be designed as a retaining wall with...
