Thank you so much CDLD.

Thank you for your help. Do you think it's better to consider only the bottom flange of the monorail for the lateral moment resistance ?

I found it in two calculation notes. I couldn't find any code or guide talking about. I think we can remove it and considerate only the bottom flange is resisting the lateral bending moment. No torsion will then be taken into account.

Canadian, American or any other code. I couldn't find any reference anywhere.

Anyone has any idea ?

Hi everyone, Does anyone have any information where we can have any code discussion about the Torque Reduction Factor (β = 1.08 - 0.186(μL) + 0.0099(μL)2 ; µ = √(GJ/ECw ) ; L = span) for the calculation of the lateral bending moment of a monorail beam ? I couldn't find any reference. thank...

No it will be removed by small loaders.

Actually,the pellets are accidently falling from a conveyor at the same level of the wall and they are accumulated near to the wall.

I forgot to precise that the maximum height of stockpile we can have is the wall height.

Thank you for your replies. I was thinking it could be something similar to what is considered for stacking towers. [link file:///C:/Users/hamza.mami/Downloads/Loads_for_Design_of_Stacking_Tubes_for_Granular_Materials%20(5).pdf]Link[/url]

Hello, Can anyone tell me how to calculate the lateral pressure coefficient on the wall in this case ? I couldn't find any reference in the internet. I'm not sure it's the same for a retaining wall with infinite soil ((1-sinΦ)/(1+sinΦ)). Thank you.

The slab should be more than enough to support the tank. As per shown below the load is not transfered directly to the piles. I think it's most probably used for leak detection and drainage below the tank.

Thank you all for your answers. Yes Aesur, it's a slab on soil with piles. I forgot to precise that we are actually replacing the old tank by a new one with almost the same specifications, so there will be no significant load change. The old tank was supported on steel beams wich are...

Hi everyone, We want to provide a slab foundation for a new steel tank (22.5' diam, 12' H) inside a building which already has a general slab of almost 2 feet over concrete piles as shown in the sketch below. My question is: can we constrcut the new foundation over the existing slab with no...

Hello everyone, I'm calculating a runway beam with a combined section of W920x223 and a cap channel MC460x63.5. The W section is class 1 and the channel is class 3. Would you please confirm the following: - the combined section is supposed to be 3. - the upper equivalent flange is class 3. -...

But in our case the loads coming from foundation are almost same or less than the excavated earth load.

Thank you.

Dear soil experts, We have to calculate settlements for some foundations of different types within an industrial project and we are facing a very soft clay layer of 7.5m thick at 5m depth. In some cases the applied loads are almost equal, or sometimes even less than the excavated soil load. Is...

Thank you. In fact this drawing has been provided by a client as guide drawing. I wouldn't put masonry below grade. We are used to clay brick masonry which is not reinforced and used only as infill walls with limited heights due to their poor resistance.

Thank you for your reply. How high could generally a masonry wall support its own weight ?
