human909 replied to the thread Footing uplift safety factor.Agreed. "Factor of safety" is seemly the most obvious and clear margin of safety for a layman or even a engineer not wanting to do too...

I think the issue here is simply that "Factor of Safety" has to be defined clearly to have any meaning. So, for example, in your Method...

Ah I think we've been talking past each other I read the ops thread as I am doing these welds how do I figure out the demand in them and...

human909 replied to the thread Beam Reinforcement Calculation.That is shifting the goal posts. Specifically "How do I calculate the required weld to ensure the section acts compositely?". No weld...

human909 replied to the thread Beam Reinforcement Calculation.Which is exactly what I have been saying. 😉 I'm not sure exactly what A-A1 is showing here. The curve reversal indicate you might be...

human909 replied to the thread Beam Reinforcement Calculation.I believe @Celt83 may have been loose with his language. I believe @Celt83 meant to say the shear flowing through the weld, or the...

human909 replied to the thread Beam Reinforcement Calculation.Glad to see you go back and look at your model. For what it is worth here is my model with discrete welds every 20mm. along with bolts...

Just brain-storming! A scenario ... You have an I beam. You want to attach two side plates to the web. Case 1) You put in two rows of...

human909 replied to the thread Beam Reinforcement Calculation.Hey smoulder! :) Thanks for taking a thoughtful look at my posts, which hasn't always been evident in other replies. Regarding your...

human909 replied to the thread Digital Seal and Signature.That's the way I operate! But the strict legalities over signing/stamping aren't anywhere nearly as established in Aus as it is in the...

human909 replied to the thread Footing uplift safety factor.I don't see why you would factor buoyancy up by 1.5. But that might depend on: -your assumptions regarding your buoyancy calculation...
-
human909 replied to the thread Beam Reinforcement Calculation.Agreed. A fantastic trick questions judging by the discussion in this thread. Though and certainly multiple ways to approach it. As...

human909 replied to the thread Beam Reinforcement Calculation.💙 THANK YOU! 💙 It has become quite circular and frustrating. But even then I've persisted because ultimately I have learnt a fair bit...

I still disagree and have tried to make my point numerically, but have not had time for sketches or examples. Shear flow at that point...

human909 replied to the thread Beam Reinforcement Calculation.This "diatribe" is relevant as it goes to the core of the original question. The longitudinal shear flow between the plates and the I...
