    Pivot Table - Separate columns for Actual and Forecast Value

    Wow, thank you @SkipVought!! Appreciate your effort Mate, awesome! I think my questions is to broad, apologies. I have attached snapshot of what I'm trying to achieve using Pivot table or Power pivot. Here I got the source data and the desired pivot table output. Note, I know power query, power...

    Pivot Table - Separate columns for Actual and Forecast Value

    Hello Everyone, My first post to this group so please delete if not related. I’m working on some metrics and would like to know if someone here was able to create separate columns for actual and forecast values in pivot table. See attached image. Thank you in...

    Modelling Building with Precast Elements on ETABS

    Good day! Has anyone tried to model building here made up of precast elements? Precast beams, columns and hollow core slabs? I just want to know the considerations to be taken for the analysis. Thanks in advance, Neuckm

    Etabs Prestress Application

    Hello, I just want to know if the Prestress function included in ETABS 2016 is applicable for beams? I run a quick check, model a simple beam, apply loads, add tendons on it and run the analysis with two combinations: w/ tendons & w/o tendons. I observed that the reinforcement was reduced as...

    Determination of Required No. of Piles in Eurocode

    Great to see your reply BigH, Thanks. I'm stucked on this situation right at the moment, gone thru with the codes as well and has been looking for the correct approach. The thing is, my total geotechnical pile capacity (Pile bearing + Pile Shaft resistance) exceeded my pile structural capacity...

    Determination of Required No. of Piles in Eurocode

    Good day Everyone! In Eurocode to determine the required no.of piles you are given two sets of combinations both for actions and for pile geotechnical capacity as given below: (for precast concrete piles) SET A : Loads : 1.35Gk + 1.50Qk divided by Pile Total Resistance: (Qb/1.0 +...

    SHEAR STRESS IN RC COLUMNS

    KootK/Bowlingdanish, Actually i tried to worked out for Options 1 & 2, i don't have any idea about prestressing columns, will the strands be eccentric? or will it be distributed along the periphery of columns with concrete cover? If so then how will be the main longitudinal bars be...

    SHEAR STRESS IN RC COLUMNS

    Thanks KootK, i'll keep those options and try to re-analyze again my structure.

    SHEAR STRESS IN RC COLUMNS

    Hi everyone! What is the best way to overcome failure of rc columns due to excessive shear under seismic loading? Normally column design is governed by axial and bending moments but in my case it is the shear stress at lower columns (first storey) that needs some attention.Any advice/idea will...

    Highly Unsymmetrical Structure

    Well i'm using moment frames and corewall as part of the lateral system. There are two columns omitted in the architectural drawings (one on top and one near the corewall) so i have no choice but to connect my beams in the corewall and in one staircase wall (so become part of MRF). The building...

    Highly Unsymmetrical Structure

    Hi Everyone, This is my first time to design an unsymmetrical structure in both directions and i am confused whether or not my established framing is done correctly. The building is a 9-storey industrial precast structure (prestressed precast beams, precast columns, hollow core slab etc, design...

    Hollow Core Slab

    thread802-391963 I am using hollow core slab and have it modelled as membrane instead of shell elements. But i am a bit confused, will the distribution of loads (selfweight + live loads) will all be one way? even if my rectangular slab is supported by 4 beams along its perimeter? Thanks for...

    Prestress Beams

    slickdeals, i have gone to ETABS contents and also to their technical knowledge base but unfortunately i can't find that for the beams but were able to find for slab only. Can screenshot to me where is it? Another thing, is it possible to design or model hollow core slab to ETABS? Thank you...

    Prestress Beams

    Hi, Is it possible to incorporate tendon profiles in the beam in ETABS? I've been working on a 9-storey building with precast components ( beams, columns and hollow core slab. My precast beams comes with a prestressing tendons and i don't know how to include it in my model. Thanks in advance...

    diaphragm for hollow core slab

    Hi Ramiibrahim, Are you able to model and analyze hollow core slab in ETABS? Thanks

    Runway beam BS 2853:1957

    volunteera, In BS2573-1 Typical values for crane loads: For vertical wheel loads: 1) Dynamic Factor with crane stationary = 1.30 (applied to lifted load only) 2) Dynamic Factor with crane moving = 1.25 (applied to lifted load, Crab weight and Girder) For Horizontal wheel loads For...

    Press Machine

    Hi Ron, Yup i agree with that but i'm afraid i will not be able to calculate that or derive that horizontal shear. This is actually my first time to design foundation carrying machine and first thing i need to know is the loading (not to include dynamic or lateral thrust). I got all the...

    Press Machine

    Thanks a lot guys. Really appreciate all your insights. But does anyone of you knows some article/worked example/guidelines regarding foundation/base design of this type? Let's say i change the configuration and lay the base of press machine directly on the slab (not attach to the legs), will...

    Press Machine

    JStephen, Ok i think i'm getting closer. So do you mean i can anchor this press machine even on a normal ground slab as long as it can take the weight of the machine only? And do you know any article or worked example regarding this topic that i can look into as reference kit? Thanks for the help.
