Hello, For a 2 span simple precast girder bridge, I must find the column seismic forces and abutment bearing movement, in both with or without abutment stiffness options. The bridge concrete deck rests on 10 girders and the rubber supports are given as expansive at abutments, and fixed at bridge...

Hello. In DM 7_03, it says the following: "In saturated loose to medium compact granular soils seismic shocks may produce unacceptable shear strains. These strains may be the result of shear stresses exceeding the strength of a soil that softens beyond peak shear strength. The high shear...

In order to prevent soil expansion have effect on structure, measures such as draining water away from the structure and locating foundations below the level of water fluctuation can be counted. Any other very common methods? Also, the ones above answer how to prevent it. But what measures are...

sorry i didnt understand. are you able to expand your explanation a little further, or this is as simple as it gets? if so thanks so much anyway and I will keep checking

For the triaxial CD test, (σ_1^')/(σ_3^' )= (1+sin⁡〖∅'〗)/(1-sin⁡〖∅'〗 ) The term on the right side of the equaition resembles the Kp lateral earth pressure coefficient. I want to understand why is this so. Is it because Kp relates the vertical force to horizontal force, and here at the triaxial...

yes you can but your school must be equivalent to a US school. they will want to see this.

Then I have 2 alternatives I think: Alternative 1- setting up a company not where I live but in my license state, even if i can not move to live there for now... for quite a while i plan to do only remote work anyway, whether it is a construction schedule or engineering work... so then it...

my pe stamp is not at the state I am live at the moment. And looks like it will take some time to transfer my pe here, but i want to move forward with starting my own business now. i was always working somewhere else so far. i plan to mostly do construction management, scheduling and...

i am also considering to start my own business soon but you dont need too much capital to start a consulting business especially if at first you will work from your home. i mean just some office supplies, printer, some software (which will be the most expensive component i believe), and...

i have both and can tell you that both will be good for you and yes i took my online classes from there too if you know a little bit about project management, PMP is very straightforward.

the surcharge is the load divided by area. so divide 20 tonnes by the area of the plant and you have your surcharge. then you will need to apply the formula for the lateral pressure, to find out the pressure generated by that surcharge to your excavation.
