You’re videos are amazing man. Im in my final year of my degree and im working for a structural consulting firm here in Canada, Ontario as a designer. Your videos on connections and general stuff like this are really great to watch on my downtime.

To able to use "I+A*d^2" formula the section of the beam is constant/continuous/not interrupted by space. I think you should use the formula "Sum(A*d2)" for second area moment aka I.

Yes, the formula is always the sum

I am lost to finding the value of d. My question is, what is the value of I you used and where did you find it?

@bengthebrazilianengineerinAus 7 ай бұрын

The I value of the PFC is on the table. See 6:58. I bring up the table. If you are using a different section, your I value will be different. The other I value (for the truss system), I found in the beginning of the video by rearranging the deflection formula for a simply supported beam. To find "d", I simply rearranged the Parallel axis theorem formula.

Is mathcad free ? i downloaded it and after a month there is a logo on the page.

thanks for sharing. quick questions, have you seen a concrete pad sitting on top a bored pier so a steel column can sit on it? they then become part of slab when the slab is formed? I just could not picture how it would look like.

@bengthebrazilianengineerinAus Жыл бұрын

I don't see a reason to have the pad in there. Is the column section greater than the bored pier?

@johnh6798 Жыл бұрын

the column is to support the 1st level floor beam (2 story building)

If you google design capacity tables Liberty you may find them. They are sections from Australia though.

I would suggest to use the units in Mathcad, otherwise you are using a fancy notepad/calculator with images and formatting.

@bengthebrazilianengineerinAus 3 ай бұрын

You're correct. I don't use much Mathcad. I know it's a good tool though. Do you use it at work?

@manuel56354 3 ай бұрын

@@bengthebrazilianengineerinAus I don't use it at work. I've used it only for personal calculations. Although I've switched to do things in Python, so that I don't have to depend on commercial software (even though the free version is still super useful). The only downside is that I have to take care of units myself, but that's fine if I strictly only use SI units. Nice video!

Dear engineers, please for the love of humans, use any simple standard eng program if you need to model up a truss, this isn't a college exam, hand-calculating using the simplest (dumbest) possible truss model isn't a benefit, it's just risking all manner of subtle mistakes.
