Thank you.

Thanks guys for your opinions. To give you a more detail scenario of the above topic, i am planning to design a saddle 120 degrees cut from a carbon steel pipe and supported by a W8x31. BigInch, I agree to consider weight of water and pipe. But how about the effect of the vibration since the...

i am refering how to size the thickness and width of the saddle.

I was requested to design a replacement of an existing pipe saddle support inside a tunnel. The pipe diameter is 900mm and spacing is 7.50m. Does anyone have a guidelines/ procedure on how to design this support.Any opinions are highly appreciated. Thanks, Rhie

Hi guys, I am required to design a steel pipe support of a chilled water pipe which is currently supported by concrete (like a pedestal) elevated around 500MM from the finish floor level. Is there any guidelines how to design a saddle steel support for the chilled water pipe. I appreciate...

You are right hokie, the total depth is limited 33mm. I am trying to design it with 65Kn wheel load including impact loaD. I try to check also using 33mm plate but it fails in deflection. I agree also with JedClampett that warping and rattling is a problem. I am planning to used prestressed...

exactly, and i consider it as composite section in my design. it so happen that it fails because the depth of the stiffener is limited to 25 mm

I am designing a checkered plate which is subjected to traffic. The plate is 8 mm thick and the span is 2m. In order to withstand the design load, i try to provide a stiffener but unfortunately it fails due limited depth of stiffener of 25mm. I try also to make the distances of the stiffener as...

Hi guys, I am looking for referenece for standard pipe support and cable tray support details. Thanks in advance

Any suggestion where to put pipe support for a different services running inside tunnel. Sorry for the ignorance, its my first time to design pipe support. Thanks in advance.

I am looking for a spreadsheet that can do AISC LRFD design of beam and beam-column. I am very thankful for any reccomendation.

TXStructural, Using hammer drill can be core up to one inch. How about for larger holes? I have a service pipe with diameter equal to 160mm. Can you reccomend core more than 1 hole? e.g. 3 holes place side by side passing thru beam. What would be the maximum pipe diameter that you can...

exactly, almost 90% of slab are precast. Yah I already send querry to the supplier if possible to have coring or if they incorporate the sleeves prior to casting. Any suggestion on how to do (construction method) coring on other structural members like RC beam, stair, and elevator shaft.

Thanks for the info guys. I still have one question, we have a portion in which slab is hollow core. what I am planning is to inform the supplier that they incorporate this sleeves prior to fabrication. At some portion of the building, I have some problem on clear height, thats why I am taking...
