hi Jitin Jacob
arch foundation are curved members shell type actually/ mostly in compresion as concrete is strong in compression which reduce cost of stell thats y they r economical

dear sir
i am with civil engineerig degree , i have some problem related with my current work sir in one of my site resturant design were done and it is an existing building with unknow structural detail but being used as commercial for college building now renvated for commercial purpose ,
while construction resturant we had to build kitchen in fourth floor and the pipe lining for sewarage and kitchen was the pipe are run through the floor for which the brick soiling were done to gain the pipe dia 6inch and floor tileing were done on above now there is big question that the slab wont bear the load of brick soiling
please suggest if i am worng in this

can u tell me how the compression flange of a i section steel beam behaves????
March 2nd, 2010 at 5:34 am
what is creep and how does it effect the design of concrete structures…………
March 5th, 2010 at 10:45 am
sir am fresh civil engineer and i want in which limit value the specific gravity want to come in soil test
March 5th, 2010 at 10:45 am
what is mean by shear strength
March 6th, 2010 at 1:01 pm
Sir can i get the mix design of concrete which gains 25 Mpa strenght at 7th day
March 10th, 2010 at 8:47 am
@sangith
refer any book on solid mechanics
March 10th, 2010 at 8:49 am
@sangith
about limit value of specific gravity ?? question unclear
March 10th, 2010 at 8:55 am
@mahesh
creep is time dependent deformations over a long period of time, also called secondary deformations.How Creep effects the design of concrete structures, refer IS 456
March 10th, 2010 at 9:08 am
@mahesh panda
behavior of compression flange?? question not clear
In steel beams generally compression flange is more critical due to tendency of out of plane bending or buckling.And even if u compare the combined result of axial and bending then it is max for comp and bending rather than tension and bending.In pipe racks generally plan bracing are provided near compression flange at anchor location to avoid any buckling.
