    My ETABS slab design doesn't look right

    I model this quite simple structure. A 1m tall column with 1000kN lateral load on top is sitting on a 1m wide slab as you can see below. The design bending moment (-487kNm & +520kNm) in this 1m wide design strip looks normal to me. (see below) However, in the design module, ETABS is using...

    Steel Beam to Column Moment Connection

    Hi, I have this I section steel beam to I section steel column using bolted moment connection. I am wondering what happens if this moment connection fails? For the structure itself, shear connection is okay, but for some reason it is designed as moment connection but don't have enough moment...

    Center of rigidity

    Hi guys, I have a 10m x 28m floor plate that is 200mm thick, supported by four 5m-long walls spaced at 7m intervals. The last wall is oriented at a 45-degree angle to the global X-axis. I obtained the center of rigidity (COR) values from ETABS, and the negative YCR value is causing confusion...

    Deflection of foundation.

    Hi guys, I have questions regarding the deflection of foundation that I hope you guys can help me. When we design say pad footing we do load run down, load combination (DL+LL gravity in my region) and then design the footing accordingly. I don't see much consideration is given to the deflection...

    Deflection. Absolute or Relative?

    This might sound like a stupid question but I am gonna ask anyway. When we check the deflection, is it based on relative value or absolute? Lets say I have a 5m span one way slab supported by 2 edge beams (10m long) that sit on 2 end columns. If I use a 3D computer analysis model and it gives me...
