Structural design is the process of creating structures that can withstand loads and environmental conditions. Structural design examples are the applications of structural design principles to real-world problems. In this blog post, we will look at some structural design examples and how they illustrate the concepts of structural analysis, materials, safety, and aesthetics. Structural Design…
A beam is a structural component or member that primarily transfers loads put along its axis to its supports, such as walls, columns, foundations, and so on, with bending serving as the main mode of deflection. Beams are essential structural elements in civil engineering, as they support the loads acting on buildings and other structures….
Reinforced concrete (RCC) beams are structural elements that are designed to carry transverse external loads, such as dead, live, and seismic loads. The design of RCC beams involves the selection of appropriate dimensions, materials, and reinforcements to ensure safety and serviceability of the structure. The following are some of the steps involved in the design…
A RCC beam is a structural member designed to resist bending and shear forces along with supporting loads. The beam is made of a concrete that has been reinforced with steel bars or mesh, increasing the structure’s tensile strength and enabling it to withstand bending and shear pressures. It stands as a cornerstone of structural…
Cement is the most common and widely used material which we come across in our day to day life. A fine powder called cement is utilized in building as a binding material. In a kiln, a mixture of clay, limestone, and other materials is fired to a high temperature to create it. The finished cement…
Cement is a powdery substance obtained by grinding a mixture of limestone ,clay and other minerals and the mixture is then heated to a temperature of roughly 1,450 degrees Celsius. It is a vital material in the field of civil engineering, serving as the binding agent in various construction applications. The chemical composition of cement plays a…
