Hello Everyone,
My first post to this group so please delete if not related.
I’m working on some metrics and would like to know if someone here was able to create separate columns for actual and forecast values in pivot table. See attached image.
Thank you in...
Good day!
Has anyone tried to model building here made up of precast elements? Precast beams, columns and hollow core slabs? I just want to know the considerations to be taken for the analysis.
Thanks in advance,

Hello,
I just want to know if the Prestress function included in ETABS 2016 is applicable for beams? I run a quick check, model a simple beam, apply loads, add tendons on it and run the analysis with two combinations: w/ tendons & w/o tendons. I observed that the reinforcement was reduced as...
Good day Everyone!
In Eurocode to determine the required no.of piles you are given two sets of combinations both for actions and for pile geotechnical capacity as given below: (for precast concrete piles)
SET A : Loads : 1.35Gk + 1.50Qk divided by
Pile Total Resistance: (Qb/1.0 +...
Hi everyone!
What is the best way to overcome failure of rc columns due to excessive shear under seismic loading? Normally column design is governed by axial and bending moments but in my case it is the shear stress at lower columns (first storey) that needs some attention.Any advice/idea will...
Hi Everyone,
This is my first time to design an unsymmetrical structure in both directions and i am confused whether or not my established framing is done correctly. The building is a 9-storey industrial precast structure (prestressed precast beams, precast columns, hollow core slab etc, design...

I am using hollow core slab and have it modelled as membrane instead of shell elements. But i am a bit confused, will the distribution of loads (selfweight + live loads) will all be one way? even if my rectangular slab is supported by 4 beams along its perimeter? Thanks for...
Hi,
Is it possible to incorporate tendon profiles in the beam in ETABS? I've been working on a 9-storey building with precast components ( beams, columns and hollow core slab. My precast beams comes with a prestressing tendons and i don't know how to include it in my model.
Thanks in advance...
Hi everyone,
Please see attached image, is it an uplift or downward reaction at points A & B? It looks so easy that a simple equilibrium of forces can solve it but i'm confused. I'm thinking of a push-pull interaction at the base, am i right?
Thanks for the...
Hi,
I am currently using v17 2.0 of SAP2000 and understands that design for steel built - up section is limited for I section, cover plated I and Hybrid U. My section is welded box and i am using section designer to model it (sometimes TUBE section) but somehow confused of the calculated...
Good day Everyone!
In Eurocode steel design code, is there any provision regarding the design of single member composed of different steel grades? I'm talking about a box section wherein top plate is grade S275 while that of side plate is grade S355 (see attached image).
Thanks in advance :)...
Hi,
I'm looking for example work/calculation for bolt group analysis subject to out of plane loading based on Eurocode. My structure is a crane, and one of its main leg (box section - 5.2M x 1.2M) will be spliced using end plate (25mm THK) with tremendous amount of bolts (see attached image). I...
Hi Everyone,
Just want to know if sap2000 can design plate/shell elements based on specified code requirements say Eurocode 3? I know it is capable of determining resultant forces and membrane stresses across plate elements but how about designing and checking the plate if it passes in certain...
Hello,
Does anyone here using SAP2000 for pilecap design? I was able to model and analyze the pile cap with piles but is confused in the ff items:
1) How to obtain vertical spring value for pile with known pile reaction? How about with only SPT data?
2) After running the analysis, how do you...
Hi,
I just want to get your advice, is it safe to use the value of COHESION determined in SPT BORELOG Report?
Please see attached file. I'm currently designing pile foundation, 9m deep. I'm using spreadsheet that utilizes cohesion to obtain the pile resistance in shaft and base.The value of...
Hi Everyone!
This is a novel-like question regarding the analysis and design of steel connection based in Euro Code, configuration as per attached. A deep box section connected to another deep box section using bolted end plate. [smile]. I've been reading and trying to understand EN 1993-1-8...
Hi Everyone!
Good day. I'm looking for someone who has an experience in structural analysis and design of Gantry Cranes or currently dealing with same structure (EOT, Jib, etc). Can we talk?
Thank you all,
Neukcm
Hi!
Anyone here who have experienced in structural design and analysis of crane (gantry crane, overhead crane, jib etc) using Eurocode?
I've been dealing with such structure and just started studying Eurocode after transition from BS code. I'm looking for useful spreadsheets, software or worked...
