  1. joint shear ratio exceeds limit beam/column capacity rati exceed limit reinforcing required exceeds max allowed whereas the building is single storeyed and the column failed is 12 x 26 unable to attach model site not allowing how can i

    the great secret of power is never to do more than you can accompolish
  3. you er right but in this way we are making a trade for a thing which is not there for a thing which is there i.e. reducing slab thickness at one point but at the same time incresing steel so what about economy?
  4. Interesting to know 30 m of marine clay sits at a depth of 10 m below the surface of the tower’s foundations known as Leaning Bell Tower at Pisa, Italy
  5. please referSettlement in foundation 2009 Handout.pdf
  6. or levelled backfill coefficient of active eart pressure is given by Ka=(1-sin Ø)/(1 +sin Ø)= tan2 (45-Ø/2) where Ø is angle of internal friction for inclined backfill coefficient of active earth pressure is given by Ka= cos θ (cosθ -√(cos2θ – cos2Ø))/(cosθ +(√(cos2θ – cos2Ø)) where θ is the slope angle of backfill
  7. the case is while designing we also consider factors like permissible settlement and secondly lean is poured after leveling the sfc properly beneth the lean and top sfc of lean is also leveled b4 foundation concrete. so even if it converets to powder it will do so uniformly as the thickness of lean is also kept constant.
  8. dear member lean beneath is provided to have a uniform lvl surface if you examine the condition of lean after years especially when you demolish any old building you will discover that the lean that you poured is not there it is converted to fine powder and the foundtion poured took the place so there is no role of lean towards adding strength. I practically saw this phenomenon myself. But couldnt conclude then why we use different thicknesses of lean
  9. now in foundation if we have a column that is interioir column of the bldgn and on that particular slab it is exterior so do we have to make that building reference or that slab/footing
  10. yar an engineer is a perfect engineer if he as command at site as well as design. Site is an importnt aspect of engineer life without site experience an engineer wiil never understand the problems that are faced at the site moreover an engineer with a degree is useless at site if he cannot design the thing what he is executing. secondly a design engineer should be a practical design engineer and tell you what a person has more value in the field if he also knows how to design because then no jack and jill can challenge him that he is doing wrong because he will be knowing the structural aspects and behaviour of the thing he is executing that we study in our degree as per well defined acceptable codes and practice. Working at site broadens your mind and you clearly understand what you are designing. there is a difference between plotting a line for a beam on paper and executing a beam on field the point is that your perspective should be crystal clear and regarding difference sir baz is rt the question can be asked what is a difference between a diploma site engineer and degree site engineer. A degree holder must knw what he is doing to mark a line if you dnt knw this then you have wasted your sixteen years. I must also tell you one more thing that a good designer can never manage a good site and a good field engineer can never be a good designer and once you merge up both qualities into one then that is called an engineer and a true engineer is rare to find out but its not difficult to become one though it takes time. And time is all that we dont give. And a good engineer is a good consultant and can be relied on to take advice.

    making enemies is much much easier than making friends and its difficult to recognize enemy if is your friend.
  12. I just presented an explanation to the use of computing techniques if somebody has taken it the other way round then read my post again which support in favour of being faster in the present world by use of computing techniques rather then being slower with the manual calculations and why i said k duniya jeenay nhn daiti because a person with good computing techniques is more prefferable to any organization then a person with clear concepts a person with good GPA is far far better than the one trying to clear concepts for which i said k look behinf and see how many have we left behind and thanx for the reminder i forgot the language of the forum is english for which i appologise to moderators and others concerened
