The lamination sandwiched between a pair of glasses prepared in a room having a window unit air conditioner and a humidifier gives off bubbles after 4 months. The autoclave is in very good condition for the heating process. I anticipate the prep room may require a review. The walls are timber...
The area of reinforcement provided has to be re-checked against what was allowed for in the design if one wants to substitute rebar size.
The spacing between rebars are a function of, amongst many, the following:
Concrete crack control;
Congestion of rebars;
Tension or compression face of wall...
1. Check local bending of the member stressed and also transfer load to adjacent nodes to determine axial loading.
This will assist in reinforcing the existing members as well joints.
2. Another way is to model it. Use of a good software!
You may visit and download free software from the following sites:
www.compact.org.uk or www.shef.ac.uk/~compact
Its a computer aided training site worth evry inch.
Good luck
The swelling potential of sample in the oedometer and the load required to carry out subsequent stress loading does accurately give you the preconsolidation pressure. Its a very reliable method for over consolidated soils.
Concrete permanently immersed in sea water is attacked less than that between tides.
Sufficient cover is between 50 to 75mm. the later is preferred.
Cement type and content is also important.
Try checking with www.fibermesh.com
They have pertinent details.
Additionally, I would be worried with any claim that supports its fire resistance capability.
Of interest would also be a 4 year study was carried out on the "effects of Polypropylene fibers in reducing corrosion of rebars...
Its also advantageous to discuss your problem with Sika (http://www.sika.com ) or vandex. They produce specialist admixtures like Palastiment BV 40 etc.
I used a certain plasticiser (can't remember name) about 10 years back but the trick also is in vibration aspects and on items mentioned by...
Remember type of analysis and member properties play a significant role in any output. I have run your problem on a grade 25 concrete beam 250mm X 600mm. Corresponding results obatined from any sw should have very little variation (less than 1%). There must be some problem in your other sw.

Institution of Structural Engineers' design manual (British)has a prescription as well:
1. Area of rebars interrupted by openings in slabs ahould be replaced by an equivalent amount half of which should be placed along each edge of the opening. Diagonals bars are thus calculated accordingly.

If u r familiar with BS8110, than look for Structural Engineering Design in Practice, Roger Westbrook,Construction Press.
It has a blueprint of Silo design for begginers.
Its yet to be proven.
I will appreciate to learn about source of your information.
Negative skin friction occurs when soil pulls down the pile. Regions mostly effected are where u have incompletely consolidated soft caly, silt or organic soils. Normally fill and on grade supported slab cause...
