What happens to a building when it is subjected to wind loads? Any building or structures, in general, must ensure stability in two directions (Lateral & Longitudinal) to safely transfer loads from the location of application to the ground. Considering…
P-Delta Analysis is a Non-linear second-order analysis which exhibits a considerable increase in the base moment when a structure is subjected to large lateral displacement due to wind or seismic forces. Before moving further, there are two terms that need…
Our previous post is about structural steel connections, emphasizing its importance and complexity. This post is sort of continuation of the previous post, which is going to emphasize on the additional tension force that is developed in the bolted connections…
What are the structural elements does a steel structure holds? As similar to every other building, the major load-carrying members in a steel structure are columns and beams. Let us consider an industrial steel building to analyze its structural components.…
During the initial stage of one’s career, every design engineer, especially a steel design engineer would have come across this statement “Bending force is carried by the flange of an I-Section, and shear force is taken care of by the…
What is the importance of employing Lx, Ly & Lz for a member during the design stage? Every structural or civil engineer would be aware of column buckling behavior. Which is one of the predominant failure modes for the column,…
