Hello,
Really basic question, I'm just new to engineering and wanted to see if this made sense.
I have a 24" simply supported 3x3x1/4 angle flipped that one of the legs is taking a 500 lb point load at the center.
I went through the equations and it seems fine, but just thinking about little...
USA
AISC 360-10
Its indoors on a platform not sure the safety factor but i can apply that later
I am looking for the maximum deflection to be 0.1 inches.
With that I was looking to find the max allowable point load on the plate
The plate is supports on all 4 sides by a 4x4 angle with an...
Hello
This is a pretty simple problem but just looking for some help.
I am designing a steel plate for a walkway. The plate is to be 3/8" thick A36 steel. The span is 27.5 inches by 32 inches.
I was wondering if someone could help me with finding the maximum deflection and then the load that...
hmmm ok. Sorry didn't mean to make it sounds like they were even. But ok. So my first thought was to have the spreader just extend over the cabinet so that the CG of the frame would be the same of the cabinet and I would not have to worry about it.
Then I would just solve for reactions and...
Hm ok, the mass of the cabinet is about 7 kips and the frame is most likely going to be w8x12 beams so I doubt it will effect much just was not sure.
The cabinet cant tilt more than a 7° incline.
Hello,
Not sure if this is a stupid question but I've been staring at this for a while.
I have a big cabinet with 6 hooks on top that are not evenly spaced. I am designing a spreader frame so that there will be cables going vertically to the frame and then from 4 positions on top to a lifting...
Hello,
I am new to Staad. I have just finished building a steel platform. I am trying to check the unity ratio but when I go to the unity check in post processing under beams I just see N/A. Does anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks,
