How to Wind Load Calculations for tall structures? | Strutural Design | Lceted

19 October 0
Wind Load Calculations for Tall Structures Introduction Wind load is one of the important criteria for designing tall structures. Wind upon buildings and towers causes lateral forces that may affect the stability and integrity of both. This paper outlines the procedure used in determining the wind loads on tall structures, the steps of the processes involved in the calculation of wind pressure, e…

How to Calculate Column Load, Reinforcement, and Section Sizing? - Lceted

19 October 0
Column Load Calculation: Reinforcement and Section Sizing The column is a vertical structural element meant to carry axial loads from slabs, beams, and walls. Proper column design refers to making sure that the building can hold loads without collapsing. In the paper, we will calculate the axial load a column needs to withstand, compute the reinforcement needed, and dimension the column section  …

Foundation Design: Bearing Capacity and Settlement Calculations

16 October 0
Foundation Design: Bearing Capacity and Settlement Calculations The foundation is arguably the most critical part of any building as it transfers the building load onto the soil. Therefore, proper foundation design requires an understanding and computation of both the bearing capacity and settlement that would occur. In this section, we shall detail these two crucial aspects, including example …

How to design for Retaining Wall: Stability and Reinforcement Calculations

13 October 0
Retaining Wall Design: Stability and Reinforcement Calculations A retaining wall can be defined as a structural element that is used to hold up soils, especially in sloping areas. Its design would have to account for stability, and safety reasons, with regard to these forces. Here, we go through the calculations most relevant to designing a stable and reinforced retaining wall that would resist s…
