is there anyone has pilecap design example base on eurocde? or any spreadsheet? if possible, can anyone share with me for the design example for 2P--6P pilecap design by eurocode strut-tie method?
by the way, under EC2 design, must the pile cap has vertical shear link ?
thanks very much.
To aeoliantexan :
many thanks for your reply.
so if my understanding is not wrong, you will do a lab test to get the soil density after compression. say the clay layer standard density is 18 kn/m3, if you test can reach a density of 18/0.95 (or 18*0.95, sorry which one is right?) , it assumed...

Sorry, Maybe i didn't explain my concern correctly as my English is poor.
Firstly I agree with you, torsion cannot be ignored if there is and it is significant. My question is because.... I don't think the result from My Staad pro model is correct. the reason is.... OK. assume...

Thanks for your reply,
May i know how to "offset slab vertically from the beam centroid"? I don't how to do it in Staad, I only know how to offset beam elements.
Actually, shy to say that i also not very sure how to do the below 3 method that you listed down in Staad pro. If you...
thanks for your good reply .
actually, i also do a study to see if it is due to the staircase and pinned the beam end to release the moment, but the result is the same.
if there is one beam join to the concerned beam, i can understand where the torsion moment come out and it may be...
Hi aeoliantexan
OK,thanks for your advice.
may i know, what is the method you will use to verify the site soil bearing capacity after compaction / construction? Say base on the soil report / SPT value or Cu value, you use allowable soil bearing capacity of 100kpa , and on site did some...
thanks for your reply on the plate load, I think that is the answer, because i tried to apply more node, and the result is closed to the manual calculation result.
yes, I also used the floor load, but ....the torsion moment still happen. I have uploaded my concerned beam in the attachment...
I have one question about this program.
If i use this program to do RC design (say a 5 storey RC factory), some of the RC beams fail due to the shear problem, while look into the result, it failed due to the torsion moment on it. But in fact, while considering the floor RC slab can help to...
Hi aeoliantexan & all
thanks for your advice and reply.
I check with section 4.12, it is about how to determine the bearing capacity from field load tests (say plate load test). And some formula mentioned,Qult = Qplate (Bfoundation / Bplate). assume Bfoundation / Bplate = 3 (same to the design...
Hi all, can anyone help to solve my problem? Normally, Plate load test is used to verify the site soil bearing capacity. but normally the settlement is quite small. (say 5mm of settlement while applied pressure of 350 kpa, which means, if reach a settlement of 25mm, the pressure can be 1000...
