Tie beams design
Waqas Haider and 2 others reacted to Badar (BAZ) for a topic
The design of tie beam will be governed by amount of differential settlement of the foundation selected for the job at hand. If delta is the differential settlement, then the fixed-end moment due to that value will be: (6EI/L*L)delta. Add the gravity load Fixed End Moment to it, and then distribute this moment among members of beam-column joint according to their flexural stiffness. That is a crude way of proportioning the tie beam.3 points -
