Hi there,
I am trying to solve for the stress on a steel plate connected to a steel beam, and I am just wondering if I am on the right track (This is the first time I have done it).
Here is the FBD:
Here is my calculations:
So, I ask, am I on the right track? Do I need to consider...
Hi there,
I am currently designing a padstone to support a beam with a 77.63 kN end reaction. I am following the British Standard BS 5628-1-2005.
The BS code provides the following Figure for the design:
We see that the dispersion line illustrates the stress distribution at a 45 degree...
I am wondering if anyone is familiar with any of Bryan Stafford-Smith and Alexander Coull's work?
I have their book Tall Building Structures, Analysis and Design.
For rigid frames they express an parameter for the racking stiffness called the shear rigidity (GA).
For intermediate storeys...
