Hey,
Im undertaking some research at the moment which aims to determine how load is spread between timber floor joists. In order to achieve this I have made a floor joist system which consists of five joists. I have loaded the central joist in the system with two point loads at the 1/3 points...
I hav'nt done much work with timber before and I need to deermine the size and amount of screws I need to connect OSB flooring to a sold timber joist. I not quite sure how to go about it. Is it governed by shear forces?how would you consider the connection to be loaded?Please Help......Thanks!
im designing a basement wall fixed on all four sides, with the load spanning horizontally.i've been told it is necessary to distribute the moments which i have calculated at the supports.
5m span- moment at support = 266.21 knm, moment at mid span= 133.11knm
7m span- moment at support = 499.9...
Hey,
Can anybody tell me if the hillerborg strip method is appropriate for designing a basement wall fixed at the ends and base and free at the top. im assuming that moment is taken by the base from a triangle (inclined at 30 degrees) at the bottom of the wall..Thanks!
im designing a reinforced concrete basement. can anyone help me with the moment redistribution? the wall is fixed on all four sides. is redistribution necessary? or can i design the wall another way. i am using the hillerborg strip method at the moment. thanks!
