one engineer from a consultant to our project is saying to me that the spring line slope is zero for half circle
and he is using h as the total height till the top of circle.
That's why I needed a clear example in a book in order to convince this consultant.
Page 50 and Page 64 is for Dome with circular base. in my case it is a normal building with arch roof of semi circle.. th roof is like half cylinder covering the building. does the mean height definition and calculation for the dome apply also for arch roof.
In page 51 , it is stated for arch...
I am referring ASCE 7-05
-What is the definition of mean height for an arched roof semi circle? will it the total height (i.e radius of circle) or half radius?
- is there a sample of calculation as per asce for wind for cladding of this type of building
-Figure 6-8 page 51 is not clear on...
