Introduction
Analysis of structures is important for safe design and serviceability to resist loads coming from various sources. These loads re taken into account while designing so that the building does not fail under the application of these loads. These loads may be in the form of uniformly distributed load, concentrated load, triangular load and so on. All these have various points of application and so the center of mass is to be detected for making the calculations easy in every aspect. For example, in seismic zones, the earthquake load plays an important role which is to be considered in seismic analysis. Similarly, in some areas wind is the predominant force and it imposes load on the building which needs to be analysed before any disaster strikes. All these loads create a significant impact in performing structural analysis and any slight calculation mistakes can create life threatening situations.
how can find out the component variation in various grades concrete
MILD STEEL (MS):
weight (kgs) = length(mm) * width(mm) * 0.00000785 * thickness
My desire is to become a civil engineer.. But pls what is its relationship with structural engineering?
What is the importance of IS code of practice in steel structure? i want answers in bullet points
Dear Sir, based on Hazen willam design, pls let me know the formula to calculate the diameter and class (like M.S, D.I, PVC) of PIPES
please i will be very grateful if any of my colleagues can help me materials i can use in my project writing. the topic is STABILIZATION OF SAND AGGREGATE AND CLAY SOIL. THANKS
Describ for one way and two way
What are difrent nominal mix and design mix
we are constructing rcc work to sitting a hydralic forging press mechine..
Please give me a construction process….
Hi Friends how can we know that the mixing of cement mortar and mixing of concrete was done properly,without testing it.
can a slab be constructed using 15m single span beam (steel) provided at the four sides of a slab resting on four columns provided at the ends
what is strata in simple term.
Olabisi Iliyasu your answer.
Sand replacement method
how i can to be a good civil engineer?
why we provide hook’s in reinforcement?
give the detail to constuct an arch dam….
I am very much interest in engineering ….
Core cutter method is best to determine filed compaction which gives accurate value than sand replacement method
@olabisi iliyasu
by adding water to soil dry density increase up to some point then decreases why?
Its just common sense, water will mix more with sand and it will become loose.
initially when we add water into the soil, it starts filling the voids among the soil particles hence during this period of time volume of the soil does not change but the mass changes, that’s why density of increases during this period of saturation. but after that [full saturation], if we will add water if will increase mass as well as volume at the same time,as a high density material [ soil= 2.65 gm/cc] is being mix with a low density material [ water= 1 gm/cc] so the result density of mixture is less than that of high density material.
its plasticity index
I want to do a project on Low Cost Building.
Can anyone help me..?
