Does anyone have a tip on how to calculate the force exerted on a stationary object by a moving mass of water (e.g. pylon foundation in a river)?
Thank you.
We are designing a 2 story, 2500 sf house to sit on a lake-side slope, where the slope of the earth is about 45 degrees to the edge of water. There is highly fractured shale just below 6 inches of slag material on the side of the hill. I am looking for some ideas on foundation types. Thought...
I have a steel column baseplate that is connected to a concrete foundation with anchor bolts. The anchor bolt nuts have corroded off and there is no way to get new nuts on the connection. The column is one leg of a four legged radio tower and is in complete tension of about 55 kips, max load...
A builder is concerned about the transfer of lateral pressures from then end-walls of a house foundation (9-foot pre-cast walls) to the floor system. The foundation walls that run perpendicular to the floor beams transfer load directly to these beams, so those walls aren't a concern. However...
I need to design a buried pipe for an H-20 loading. What area due I apply the load over at the surface of the ground? Should I only use the 32 kip load?
Thanks!
