hello fellow engineers
i've been reading in the building dynamics field and i think i'm missing something
1-i understand the physical definition of the natural frequency but (is it the reciprocal of the periods at which the different mode shapes take place)?
2-due to seismic action does the...
hello
do you trust the moment values resulting from sap , Etabs...etc analysis?? even if it differs from values resulting from manual load distribution and solving beams?
another thing for flat slabs
how do you handle the huge values of shells -ve momnets at column joints? and what are the...
hello...
1 : when modelling cores and or shear walls , their are 2 methods to use..structurally who is more accurate?
a-modelling them as frame element acting in the centroid of the actual core , shear wall and making body constraints between the joints on the same shear wall or core of the...
does the ACI318 or/and the BS8110 allow for using stirrups for shear resistance in shallow foundation isolated or combined footing in case it needs?
or just when the footing cross section is out of shear capacity increase dimensions?
