    soldier piles with wood lagging

    Hello all, I need to design a flexibile retaining wall (soldier piles with wood lagging), all the text books i have do not proper handling of this issue, just some formula in very basic situations and wihout solved examples. Can any one tell me how can i find solved examples for that issue...

    Construction Case Study

    Hi all, I need a Construction Case Study in a primavera file. Is that applicable? if so, where can i get it? Thanks

    Design a beam by using Shell elements!!!

    guys, I'm glad you mentioned the section cut tool, however, i'm very confused using it, is there any solved Step by Step example of implementing that tool? About the original question, i guess we shouldn't just take the value at the point, we could take the resultant force over the area (it...

    How to interprete the result of shell element

    M11 = Bending moments in the local 1 axe M22 = Bending moments in the local 2 axe M12 = shear force in the plate plan (membrane action) etc..

    Silly Question

    BigH, i think u absolutly right, im from Egypt there is a great geotechnical consultants here, but as a lack of facilities, we need them only in the big projects, but for a small projects like a normal building just a economic check for the bearing capacity is enough. but to solve a raft...

    Silly Question

    Very nice, now, if i have the Bearing capacity, how could i get the soil modulus?? in other word, i know that when we are modeling a raft using sap2000, we multiply the bearing capacity(in t\m2 units) by 100 then multiply the result by the area of the shell carried by every joint and then...

    Silly Question

    hi all, sorry for that SILLY Question, but what is the releationship between Bearing capacity for a soil and the soil modulus?? are they the same or what !! thx in advance Pea$e

    Section Cuts

    hi fellows does any one knows how to use section cuts in sap2000 ver8 ? i usally design slabs using moments value from the contour line just at the column face, is that right ? Pea$e

    steel design

    im trying to design a steel truss using autoselect sections in Sap2000 V.8, the design sections differ from the analysis sections, i know that i must re-analysis untill i got the design section the same as the analysis sections, i tried to re-analysis many times, i tried "make autoselect...

    Girders Vs Secondary Beams

    hi fellows can any one tell me how to model a girder carrying a beam using sap2000 ?? when i model two crossing beams the program solve it as two beams interaction together, i NEED to determine that one of them is a support of the other !! is that possible ?? Thx in advance Pea$e

    hi all the area spring stiffness i

    hi all the area spring stiffness is very confusing in sap2000, i need to settle this issue, if the soil bearing capacity is 10 t/m2, what the area spring constant would be?? my old knowladge it would be from 100 to 120 times the bearing capacity in t/m2 units thats make it 1000-1200, is that...

    Elevator

    hey guys, i know exactly what shearwall is, im asking about the elevator not the shear wall, i think my title say that !!!! Simply who knows the answer of the following question may kindly answer it, or give a link. HOW TO INSTALL AN ELEVATOR IN BUILDING. answering wihtout giving a lesson in...

    Elevator

    hmmmmmm, its rude answer i guess !!! anyway i dont think it has anything to do with basis, the problem is i dont know in detials how to install an elevator in the building ,im not asking about the building saftey, i know it wont have to do any thing with safety of the building, actually im...

    Sap2k

    hi all, i've just noticed that there is a big diffrences between solving a flat slab by empirical method and using Sap2000 (even if its a very simple case like 5X4 modules )!!! also the margin beams got a diffrence bending moments too !! im confused, when solving an irregular or simple case...

    Elevator

    hi all, im designing a 7 story Reinforced Concrete Building, and it will have an elevator in the middle of the stair, my question is: do i have to put Shear walls beside the elevator ?? Pea$e
