This is somewhat a continuation of discussions under:
- Requirements For Transverse Shear Reinforcement - Minimum Shear Reinforcement
and
- Size effect factor in thick slabs
The latest AS3600-2018 amendment 2 clarified that minimum shear reo is require for one-way slab or beam when depth...
I've dabble in ACI 318 in the past, and talking to other engineers got me thinking and wanting to ask the following (because as I understand, NZS is similar to ACI):
In the ACI 318-19, it places a material limit on √f'c to 8.3 MPa (roughly f'c=69 MPa) for both 2-ways (ACI 318-19 22.6.3.1)and...
Hi,
from:
Bentley RAM SS, Other Considerations Exporting to RAM SS
"If you are using Ram Foundation to design foundations supporting Concrete Columns, those foundations will not be designed including the Hyperstatic forces from post-tensioned levels above."
I do not understand, but taking a...
Hi,
the definition of do:
distance from the extreme compressive fibre of the concrete to the centroid of
the outermost layer of tensile reinforcement or tendons (not less than 0.8D for
prestressed concrete members)
Does anyone know where (and/or how) the 0.8D for prestressed concrete...
