Hi,
I am designing a cantilever canopy structure. I have approximately 20'-0" beam on each side of column. The framing is "T" shaped as the cantilevered beams are supported only on one column.
My questions is if anyone has connection design reference for that type of connection? I am planning...
I am designing a couple of cantilever connection for a parking structure. The design of beams and columns are not very complicated. However, the connections design is very interesting. I have attached a .pdf file for reference. I need:
1) A design guide for beam to beam moment connection.
2)...
Hi,
Does anyone know a good reference material/book to distribute wind loads? I am not using any software which generates wind loads automatically and even if I will be using any software I want to understand how the loading is applied to MWFRS.
The information given in ASCE7-05 regarding...
Hi,
I am currently working on a project using Ram Advanse software. Ram Advanse software do not have a capability to import or export within CIS/2, Step or VRML files. So, I am exporting it to .dxf file. The .dxf file is imported in Solidworks and modified.
The Solidworks has capability to...
Hi,
I am analyzing an existing platform in a mill. The grid of the platform is 16'x12' and it is supported by W8X18 steel beam between columns. There are two W8X13 intermediate beams placed 4'-0" o.c. There is a 3/8" THK. diamond pattern steel floor plate spanning 4'-0" o.c.
The client...
Hi,
This is in reference to steel design guide 24, HSS connections. The moment connection chapter is 4. The guide demonstrates an example (example4.1) for continuous W-Beam supported over HSS Column. My questions are
1) The example 4.1 does not include lateral load for design. Can I use the...
