Structural loads, structural analysis and structural design are simply explained with the worked example for easiness of understanding. Element designs with notes and discussions have added to get comprehensive knowledge. Also, construction materials, shoring system design, water retaining structures, crack width calculations, etc. have discussed in addition to other aspects.
After finalizing the load on the structure, structural analysis is carried out to find the forces such as bending moments, shear forces, torsional moments, etc. The idealization of the actual structure in the most...
Shear links are provided to carry the shear forces induced by the applied loads on structural elements. The most wildly discussed element connected with shear links is the concrete beams. There are no beams...
Punching shear is a failure mechanism when structural elements subjected to concentrated load. Failure occurs in perimeter defined away from the concentrated load. Slabs, pile caps, footings, raft foundations, etc. element is subjected to...
Performance Based Design is a process of designing structures for predictable performance for initially considered loads. This approach is used to design a new building or to evaluate an existing structure. In performance based...
Knowing the methods of calculating the tributary area for columns is important when we calculate the axial loads on the column. In manual calculations, the key factor of calculating the column loads is the...
