Structures from first principles!
This article explores into the theoretical and practical aspects of wind-structure interaction in tall buildings. We discuss the nature of wind forces, the structural response to these forces, and the tools and strategies engineers use to manage them.
This article provides a comprehensive guide to the dispersal of traffic loads on culverts. It explains the underlying principles, and offers a worked example to demonstrate the practical application of these concept.
This article explores the theorem’s theory, its application in structural engineering, and a worked example involving a steel truss.
Despite their importance, analyzing transfer slabs presents significant challenges due to their complex load distributions and interactions with supporting systems. Transfer slabs are crucial elements…
In this article, we explore the principles, workflow, applications, and types of Finite element analysis in structural engineering.
This article, break down Soil-structure interaction SSI into simple concepts, explore key factors influencing it, and review how engineers’ study and apply SSI in practice.
This article explores practical steps to avoid such pitfalls, focusing on validation and verification processes during the modeling process.
This article explores the impact of settlement on structures, particularly how it impacts design internal forces.
This article introduces engineers to the various techniques available to monitor movement in historic structures.
This article explores the analysis and design of slab-less staircases, sometimes called saw-tooth staircases
