recently a company setup a complete factory for manufacturing these 3D panels here in dubai (another manufacturer http://tridipanel.org/) , and now they want me to become their regular structural designer for the projects undertaken. As they would go on doing turnkey Design + construction...
if the compressive strength of a concrete block after 5-days is "452psi" what may be the approximate value after 28-days.
And what is a good strength value of hollow concrete block and solid concrete block, at 28days compressive test.
A two story building existing on ground for more than 11 years was working fine until seismic activity produced some serious cracks in columns. When this buiding was analyzed for gravity loads it was just fine, but in case of Seismic load (zone 3) the columns were failing in shear. So we decided...
I am wondering what is the main difference between a "MCE ( master of civil engineering ) with specialization in Structrual engineering" and MS Master of science in structural engineering, and M.E. Master of Engineering (civil engineering with specialization in structural engineering.
which...
is there any corelation of bearing capacity and subgrade modulus. if the bearing capacity is 2 ksf, then can we deduce subgrade modulus from this value ?
an existing 2 story concrete hotel building was built with the intention of construction of further 2 stories on it in the future, but now the owner wants to build four more stories on it , the isolated footings are small to take load of a total of six stories of concrete structure. therefore...
