This was awesome Brendan! Load path is certainly something that I hear about all the time but have picked up little to no knowledge from school. Love the mechanics talk!

Hi Paul, thanks for the support glad that you thought it was helpful.

I always find two-way slabs interresting, because they are so many variants of it depending on the column grid layout and the preferences of the designer. In a local (rather large) underground parking garage I’ve come across different approaches with the use of column strips. In some area’s they’ve thickened the longest span, in other area’s the shortest span. I remember when it was built, they used both semi-precast slabs as well as hollowcore slabs with in-situ top layer supported by semi-precast column strips. In the case of the combination with hollowcores, the column strips are used on the shorter span. The garage is consists of two levels and three distinct sections, all built by different builders. Since there are building on top of it, the deck under the street level has really heavy transfer beams whereas the middle floor has the slabs with column strips.

Hi DYKO, all Slabs support on column behaviours in twoway actions even with beams, it is just a function of the beam. The stiffer the beam the more it will behave like a one way Slabs. Thanks for the support.

Great video Brendan! Extremely insightful - currently I’m a student here in Brisbane studying civil engineering however I’m tossing between design (ie WSP, Hatch etc) or pure construction companies to work for (Lendlease, Multiplex, CPB). However I have an appreciation for both - not really sure what the environment is for each of the above , similarities and differences. Whenever you get the time it would be great if you could do a video on this! P.S. Keep up the great work with the awesome engineering videos :)

Every object will try to reach its minimum potential energy and it will take the most straightforward route to achieve that minimum, that most straightforward route, in this instance, is the stiffest part (least deflection) once that starts to deflect it will "look" for another way.

Loads doesn’t cascade from stiffer elements to less stiff elements, it travels simultaneously along all possible pathways in proportion to stiffness.

@BrendanHasty

Жыл бұрын

Yes, load it transfers based. but as parts get more loaded they deflect, this transfers they load to the part that hasn't deflected. So load spreades based on stiffness with the stiffest parted "becoming less stiff" delfexted the load distribution is proportion based on stiffness.

Great video Brenda! I like your content so much. I am a draftsman working in a civil and structural consultancy firm. I like to learn about Structure mechanics, do calculations, structural modeling, and have a very big passion for it. But how far I go but I am still a draftsman. Do you have suggestions so that I can have a bright further in this industry?

@BrendanHasty

2 жыл бұрын

Hi Derick, if you want to stay in drafting, look into detailing and design mechanics. I good drafters have asked me many a good question leading to better designs. Producing drawing sometimes you will see something the engineer has missed. If wanting to move into design go for it, you many need to make it known to your current employer the skills that you have.

Hai Brendan .. I have just began my career in structural engineering from India. I am trying to move to UK for a structural Eng .job.. But i am not confident in my knowledge of RCC design , also I am struggling to understand British Codes and Design ... Could you Recommend some Civil Engineering books based on british codes that completely teaches the RCC Analysis & design , based on British Standards so as to clear my basics first ..I would highly appreciate if let me know the books..

Can you do a video to talk about flexible diaphragm and rigid diaphram, much appreciated.

​@@BrendanHasty Math merely precisely describes natural phenomenon. Like all languages, math isn't an ends; rather, it's a means. Too many engineers become enamored with tools and processes, while losing focus on the fundamental principles. I've worked with many software engineers like that. They have driven me nuts!

I wish I could understand Australian.

"Load travels to the stiffest part first"? That's the "only thing you need to know"? That's plain wrong. Load travels to components in the proportion to their relative stiffnesses.... [Maybe you clarify that later - but once I heard that badly wrong Universal Truth, I didn't watch any further...]

Hi danguee load travel to their realive stiffness. As the load is applied to the stiffest element it becomes softer so that the relative deflections match to share deflections
