Hello everybody:
I think I'm overdesigning these grade beams. It is a one story building. When designing the grade beams that support the concrete block wall and the roof, should I consider that the grade beam only takes the weight of the concrete blocks defined by a isosceles triangle? or...
hello,
for design of FOUNDATIONS, should all the snow drifts be considered? or could i take a simplistic approach of considering an uniform average snow load?
the building in question is only one storey high.
thank you very much
