The Primary motivation for raft foundations remains spreading all structural loads over a large base area in most instances the entire building footprints in order to reduce the contact bearing stress to acceptable limits. Find in this article commentary on the design of beam-strip raft foundation and a worked example. #Structuralengineer #civilengineer #foundationdesign #civilconstruction #foundationconstruction #raftfoundation

Sleeve-It® SD-1 is a pre-engineered fence post anchoring solution for enhancing below-grade foundational stability in fences placed on top of a segmental retaining wall (SRW). Sleeve-It’s patent-pending design allows stable fence footings to be integrated into the support structure of the SRW while it is being constructed. Because of its cantilevered form and other properties, using Sleeve-It during the SRW build permits a code-compliant fence to be constructed, eliminating the 36” offset requirements of IBC 1015.2.

Assess the integrity of your infrastructure with Impact Echo (IE) testing from OmniVueNDT! Perfect for inspecting slabs, beams, walls, tunnels and more, IE testing helps detect voids, cracks and flaws in concrete, wood, stone and masonry. This advanced method provides precise thickness measurements and defect mapping - ideal for predicting concrete strength and ensuring structural safety. Plus, it only requires access to one side! https://lnkd.in/dn8CX8FE #ImpactEcho #NDT #StructuralIntegrity #InfrastructureTesting #ConcreteSafety #OmniVueNDT

POSITIONING OF BEAMS: 📌 Beams shall normally be provided under the walls or below a heavy concentrated load to avoid punching and shear failures in slab. 📌 Avoid larger spacing of beams from deflection and cracking criteria. #BeamPerfection #BuildingStructures #ArchitecturalArt #RaisingBeams #ConstructionExcellence #ArchitecturalDesign #BuildingStructures #EngineeringMarvels #ProjectManagement #UrbanDevelopment

Refining Mullion Sizing Based on Load Calculations 🏗️ When it comes to mullion design, precision is key: 🔹️Oversized mullions: Add unnecessary material costs. 🔹️Undersized mullions: Risk structural failure under wind or seismic loads. 🔍 Quick Tip: Always base your mullion profile selection on project-specific structural load calculations, factoring in both vertical and lateral forces. This ensures cost efficiency and safety for your glazing systems. Smart design is about balancing strength and economy! 💡 #MullionDesign #LoadCalculations #StructuralEngineering #GlassContractors #FacadeOptimization #GlazingSystems
