@ 5: 47, It shows the side view of the rectangle support beam, it does not show the orientation of the rods as would be seen in an end view. Other drawings show the one piece all thread rods offset in the rectangle beam. As built and in the photos, the two-piece rods pass thru a hole in the seam weld in the center of the beam, it's weakest point.

Love you sir❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ You are great

Hi sir I am from Basti Uttar Pradesh India I see your video it seems very informative as I am also graduate in civil engineering

What would you suggest for new commers because of artificial intelligence? Will structure Engineer be obsolete gradually due to ai & BIM softwares?

You can do civil engineering as well as structural engineering too. That's what I did for 45 years. I enjoyed a variety of projects and activities within those projects. I thoroughly enjoyed my career. Retired in 2016.

Interesting. I am 65 now and I qualified as a MIStructE in the uk when I was 28. I have lost count of what I have designed - from football stadia to airports to bascule bridges and I found my work so satisfying, especially in those early years. I started work in the early 1980’s, prior to BIM and when we ran our FE analysis over night on a main frame computer and had to check the outputs by hand using Kleinlogal diagrams.

very relevant topic, Thanks Brendan.

What if you bore or tunnel underground and build base underground which would help protect the base from external factors also maybe onion-type protective layer structures may work

what are you using to edit your videos and creating 3d pictures on the screen?

With statement "There is a con in the name" you lost your neutrality 😂

Got my construction exam tomorrow. Your content is so helpful!

You could make a 'green battery' using one of the volcanic cones . Have a tram fitted with a dynamo and a number of electric car battery's on a track that spirals around the cone from top to bottom. Have the track slope in towards the cone . The decent can be controlled so it builds up some speed before the gearing / dynamo is enguaged via the load placed on the dynamo. Very near the bottom the resistance can be incressed to slow the trolly. Severial battery's the carriage and the dynamo would provide a lot of force. Just need the maths to know if its viabile. It would be cheap due to the site and parts, the location and proximity of workers. Close to the demand and educational, maybe even a tourists destination.

Hello. I have heard that back in 2005 a mentally ill pilot threatened to crash into the Sky Tower. I have heard that it was only a small plane so it wouldn't have been another 9/11 but what if a large commercial plane was purposely crashed into the Sky Tower? Would it have been a repeat of 9/11 with people trapped in the floors above the impact with no means of escape? And would the Tower collapse in such an event or would it be different from the Twin Towers getting hit since it has a different structure? Thank you.

Thanks for the video. Enjoyed the tenival discussion. If you wouldnlike some vonstructive criticism, please improve dictation and intonation. Breaking down the video into sections and Doing multiple takes may help

BRENDAN..... where have you been all my life.... UNBELIEVABLE, just bonza beauty information and so well presented and such an important topic, bloody love it

AWESOME video and information buddie, very impressive

architechts are nothing compared to engineers. The best architechts are in fact engineers at heart.

Thank you for this awesome video! By the way, did you create the animation for the structural elements yourself, or did you use pre-made ones? It looks really great!

Thanks Brendan for the structural forces behavior. Continue to inspire and sharing the knowledge. Malik from Barbados

we need more specified topics like outrigger and staff like that

Chief, which university or college did you go to?

Good explanation. Really Appreciate your videos. Thank you

Whatever you do, don't become a line item on a contractors cost listing.

Hello Sir Can you suggest a good book for PEB design.for all kind mamber

Sir, is there a provision that the location of welded splicing of steel column should not be located at column-girder connection? Thank you.

I think you mean construction engineering and management

Can you talk about Construction engineer vs structural engineer

Thank you ❤

Great video! The black boxes in existing structural engineering software & the tedious task of constantly updating calculation templates in spreadsheets or mathcad is exactly what drove us to develop CalcBook!

site engineers knew this coloring engineering 😂 😂

Dude! Are you high or constipated?

Hi! Great video! About galvanic corrosion, the usual thing that happens in the project (esp. loosely coordinated ones, at least here in ID) is that another contractor came in without knowing what galvanic corrosion means, and starts welding stuff. Saw it once during my whole career (which isn't that long). It's really rare though. Most people here install the facade on the concrete surface covering the steel so everything should be safe. Also, should be noted for the international audience, that the rule of thumb works with the specification of mild steel where you're at. Chinese steel have slightly different standard.

The trouble with that connection was that the horizontal part of the C beam section was being used as a horizontal cantilever and the vertical web was not being used directly to hold the load. The washer and nut underneath the C beam was too small and if a larger pressure plate spanning the width of the box beam such that the thick pressure plate would span the width and transfer the load directly to the vertical webs rather than in a cantilever effect on the horizontal parts. The fact that the design was changed aggravated the effect but even the original design was wrong due to the horizontal parts of the C beam was being used as a cantilever and the welding of the two C sections was absolutely terrible. It was that small washer and that small nut that were at fault as they did not transfer the load to the vertical web of the C beam. A thick pressure plate bridging the whole width of the two C section would have transferred the load directly to the two vertical webs and that would have been more than strong enough. I am surprised that no one saw this cantilever loading on the horizontal parts of the C sections.

Great informative video

Hey Brendan. Nice video :) I'm trying to find an editor to help my channel. Where do you find yours? Thanks and great work :)

Hey does anyone have a standard check sheet, i.e. an Excel sheet you tick items you’ve checked off?

Great video Brendan, it took me back to my days as a CAD technician before pursuing a career in engineering. Blueprint reading is critical for all facets in construction and as engineers, we must have a keen eye for reviewing drawings and providing the relative information to support such drawings. Malik from Barbados

Very helpful video. Thank you for sharing.

I'm a structural engineer and I find this not useful. This guide feels more like for students rather than for professionals. I only find colour grading markups to be interesting. The rest felt too general very touch and go. If you want to teach students fine, but if you want to teach professionals you need to go a lot more in depth for each topics. And always use sections to explain plans or use plans to explain sections. It brings more depth to whatever you are explaining.

One of the problems I see these days is that drafties today are not drafties anymore, they are line tracers. Old school drafties used to have the skill to set up drawings and backgrounds for markup, that skill is now lost. All my markups are now in the digital domain, and it will be a cold day in hell before I pick up a physical red pen again!

You deserve more views and subs

Very good explanation and editing , hidden talent

to be honest, I did not understand a thing!
