Hi everyone, I am designing a concrete building using ETABS 2016, my concrete design code is ACI 318-14 and i have ASCE 7-10 for defining live and seismic loads. after analyse and design procedure there were two beams with (S/O #2) error, because my seismic design category is D all the frames...

Thank you Sirs!!

@jayrod12 Sir, My question is that, as a structural engineer how should one orientate rectangular columns in a structure that is subjected to dead, live, seismic/wind loads?? Just for an example i have attached a plan of a building which has rectangular columns. This is a three story real...

Hi, My question is about reinforced concrete rectangular columns orientation, i had heard somewhere that the longer dimension of column should be orientated along the shorter direction of frame or a building, but I am not very sure about it, if someone could give me some clarification i would be...
