Hi Team,
I have just been brushing up on my structural analysis. I picked an example problem from a text book to draw a BMD and SFD.
This is the problem I picked:
I undertook a hand calculation as follows:
I am confident the solution is correct but thought of double checking it in a...
Hi Team,
An elementary question coming from a green engineer...
I have read on the forum multiple times where people have said it is conservative to assume that the connection is pinned as opposed to assuming it to be a moment connection.
In university they taught us the difference between...
Hi Team :)
I have been a member on this forum for a little while now and actively spend time reading posts - bit of a lurker.
I could do with some career advice pretty please.
I am an engineer and I live in Queensland, Australia. I am in my early 30's and I graduated from University with...
Hi all,
I am new around here. I am a grad engineer in Australia (QLD) and was wondering if anyone would have a reference guide they could provide me with that could give me an idea of slab on ground design for residential and industrial slabs. Looking to read and improve my knowledge bank...
Hi
I am working on a circular water tank that is 6m in diameter and the tank itself is 1m high. This tank is held 10m above ground on a frame. I am trying to work out the aerodynamic shape factor using AS1170.2 Cl C5.2.1. The formula for Cpb is only valid provided c/b is between 0.25 and 4.0...
Hi,
I am fairly new to structural design. In AS3600 2018 I notice that Clause 8.3.2.2 gives the maximum centre to centre spacing of reo bars as being lesser of 600mm and D. Am I correct in my understanding that this is the max centre to centre spacing between bars (across the width of a...
Hi
I use strand 7 at work. I have straus7 at home. I am trying to open a a work file at home on Straus7. It doesn’t let me and says it is not a straus7 file.
Can I open a strand file in straus? Is it possible? If so how?
Hi,
I am new to Strand7. This is what I would like to do:
I want to draw a hollow tube, 1m high with a radius of 3m and thickness of 6mm. Shape similar to a toilet roll carboard tube. I have created my cylindrical UCS. But I have no idea how to draw a circle that I can extrude up in to a...
Hi,
I am new to this forum and I am a graduate.
I have been asked to calculate the footing reinforcement for a 15 m high light pole. The footing is to be 700 mm in diameter and is to be reinforced. The footing is to be poured in situ in the ground.
To do this I made a model of the light...
