Yep, it is a building, but a capstone design project in my university.

Hey guys, from the figure, I was planning to put a truss (shaded in the figure) to support the fascia, due to the fascia being too high (3m) and it may be unstable, thus adding the additional truss support. But my question is how do I calculate if that shaded truss is enough to support the...

Hi, thanks for the reply, Nidum. This was came up from my supervisor on the "practical study" in my university. It's more like a capstone design. We used software to generate the reinforcement, but hand calculation must be included.

Hey there, thanks for the reply, I've uploaded the sketch, at the left hand side, the slab are non-suspended slab on top of compacted hardcore, while the right hand side it is a suspended slab, with a cantilever beam, support was added to the pilecap to the cantilever beam to prevent...

Hi guys, how do I design the haunch for the cantilever beam? The slab area is relatively small, with 125thk ( 4.39m x 1190m ). I've looked through everywhere but I can't find on how to design the haunch. I'm using BS 8110. Thanks.

Hi, thanks for the reply! I would also like to ask how do I count the selfweight of the steel? Take UB 305x102x25 as example.. so the steel density multiply the area of section? Thanks!

Hi guys, I'm still new to this steel structure, would like to ask if we know the section e.g UB 305x102x25, how do we determine the steel grade (S275, S355, etc)? Thanks.

Hey guys, recently I have do some self-study on the ground response parameters on cohesive and cohesionless soil.. I made some deduction but I cannot confirm if it is correct or not, thus needing the help from the PF community. The deduction is as follows; I need explanation for the occurrence...

Case solved. Thanks all! How do I delete this thread?

1.Hey guys! I will need to design a floor with slab, beams and columns. Brickwall should rest on top of beam as possible. How about low wall, does it needs to rest on top of beams as well? Thanks! 2. No equation 3. I've designed some, but without low wall, that's what made me curious...

Hey guys! Supposedly I will need to design a floor with slab, beams and columns. Brickwall should rest on top of beam as possible. How about low wall, does it needs to rest on top of beams as well? Thanks! Harry.

Hey there! Usually we learned to calculate (in this case, I learned mostly in square/rectangular shapes), but I would like to ask how to we calculate spiral loadings? How would the load be transferred when the structure is in spiral shapes? Thanks! Here's an example of the structure.
