How to Read Building Foundation Drawings | Reinforcement Schedule
zhlédnutí 14KPřed 3 lety
In this video we will be learning about reading foundation layout drawings. Later in the video we will study foundation reinforcement detail and foundation schedule. We will take an example of an RCC concrete office building and study construction drawings required to cast footings. Structural foundation layout forms a basic part of construction sheets and every site engineer and structural eng...
How to Read Column Layout Plan | Column Reinforcement Schedule
zhlédnutí 8KPřed 3 lety
In this video we will be learning about reading column and wall layout drawings also known as column center line plan. Later in the video we will study column reinforcement detail / Column schedule. We will take an example of an RCC concrete office building and study construction drawings required to cast columns and shear walls. Structural column layout forms a basic part of construction sheet...
Taipei 101 - Structural Engineering Explained
zhlédnutí 66KPřed 3 lety
In this video we will be learning about civil structural engineering in Taipei 101. The structural design and analysis behind Taipei 101 are extra ordinary. We will talk about the Tuned mass damper (TMD) used for building during typhoons. We will also see how the building resists the lateral forces of wind and earthquakes by super columns, outriggers, belt trusses and braced core. Pile foundati...
Types of Beams in Engineering Mechanics
zhlédnutí 21KPřed 3 lety
In this video we will be learning about types of beam used in engineering mechanics and their deflected shape on uniform loading. In engineering mechanics beams are basically of 6 types. Simply supported beam, overhanging beam, fixed beam or rigidly supported beam, cantilever beam, propped cantilever and continuous beam. When the beam is loaded, it gets deflected based on the support conditions...
Types of Support | Support Reactions in a Beam
zhlédnutí 127KPřed 4 lety
In this video we will be learning about types of supports used in structures and reactions produced in them on loading via 3D animation. In engineering mechanics supports are basically of 4 types. Simple support, Roller support, Pin support and fixed support. When the beam is loaded these supports resist the load by producing reaction. These supports allow or resist vertical reaction, horizonta...
Raft Foundation Explained
zhlédnutí 153KPřed 4 lety
In this video we will be learning about Raft foundations, also known as Mat foundations via 3D animation. They are a type of shallow foundations. Types of Raft foundation will be shown which are concrete raft with drops, raft with beams / ribs and raft with piles. In the later part we will see reinforcement detailing in raft foundation. It will cover the top and bottom mesh, punching shear rein...
Typical Reinforcement in Isolated Footing
zhlédnutí 63KPřed 4 lety
In this video we will be learning about typical reinforcement in isolated footing, also known as pad or spread footings via 3D animation. Isolated footings are a type of shallow foundations which are provided under each column individually. They can be sloped footings or step footings, as per design or construction requirements but reinforcement detailing is more or less the same in each kind. ...
Types of Foundations / Footings in Building Construction
zhlédnutí 139KPřed 4 lety
In this video we will be learning about various kinds of footings used in a building construction. Foundations are broadly divided in two categories. First is Shallow Foundations and second is Deep Foundations. Under shallow foundations we will see isolated footings, sloped footings, step footing, combined footings, trapezoidal footings, strap footings, eccentric footings, strip footings, wall ...
Can Avengers Tower be Built in Real World?
zhlédnutí 45KPřed 4 lety
Avengers / Stark Tower is a very important structure in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Many stories revolve around it and the building plays a central role in many MCU movies. In this video we will analyze if Avengers Tower / Stark Tower can be constructed structurally in real life or not. We will cover the buildings foundation, superstructure, the landing pad and the energy consumption of the ...
Typical Reinforcement in a Concrete Beam
zhlédnutí 134KPřed 4 lety
Hi guys, this is Structures Explained, and in this video we are going to discuss about typical reinforcement detail in a concrete beam. Reinforcement are essential part of a concrete beam. It resists tension forces, increase the compression capacity, enhance ductility and reduce long-term deflections in the concrete. Additionally, reinforcement prevent cracking of concrete due to shear stresses...
Structural Components of a Reinforced Concrete Building
