How to Read Structural Steel Drawings

In today's video we are going to go over a set of structural drawings for a steel framed warehouse.
If you are a carpenter, apprentice, drafter, builder, young engineer, architect, project manager, steel fabricator, this video will help you understand how correctly follow the structural engineer's instructions.
If you missed our first workshop, don't stress, we have another one coming up on Foundation Engineering.
Join our Workshop to learn reading geotechnical reports, bored pier design and elevate your skills in crafting solutions for Class E problem sites. Gain valuable insights into practical on-site limitations and understand how your decisions above ground impact on the design below. Click the link below to explore more:

Hi, can you make a video on how you decide the positions of roof and diagonal braces? Thanks

[@bengthebrazilianengineerinAus]

good topic

[@iankybes8917]

Will you be recording the webinar

[@brianmugabi7516]

Thank you sir for the insight on structural steel. I would like a training from you as regards learning the engineering behind each element as well as basic design which I can build on. How can I acquire that from you?

[@bengthebrazilianengineerinAus]

Hi Brian, I'm working on an education platform. It will be launching soon. Thanks for the support

[@roopesh1]

Hi
At approx 10:29 when you show the typical bracing connection, it seems that the axis of say the BR(e25) 75x75x8 EA is located centrally (37.5mm from the edge) whereas depending on the supplier, the neutral axis is usually 22.7mm from the 'web'.
In your experience,
a. should we be using the actual 22.7mm one as opposed to the 37.5mm one? I'm guessing you used the central one because to ease workmanship during assembly.
b. does it make much of a difference? I am assuming the main difference would be eccentricities on the column.
Btw thanks for the videos. Keep them coming

[@bengthebrazilianengineerinAus]

Good question. Typically I align with the bolts, which is where the load path is going through. I would locate them centrally to the leg of the EA. Have a look at AS4100 Tension Design. It already accounts for eccentricity by using Kt factor.

[@roopesh1]

@@bengthebrazilianengineerinAus cheers. I'll have a look. I'm not familiar with Aussie codes but I know they're not that different from British or Eurocodes

[@bengthebrazilianengineerinAus]

@@roopesh1 They're all the same. For tension, there's a factor to account for that eccentricity

[@Cherla.VinayKumar]

Great video .
hi sir iam vinay from india , iam civil engineering in india graduated , iam planing to do master in Australia can help me which college was best and what should i learn basics of structural engineering and basic fundamentals.

[@bengthebrazilianengineerinAus]

I'm not sure about colleges. Are you looking to enter the structural engineering field?

[@gourabsarker9552]

Sir my cousin sister earns 160k dollars a year as a software engineer at google Sydney. Do you earn this amount of money in Australia? Plz reply. Thanks a lot.

[@bengthebrazilianengineerinAus]

hey mate, you can earn more or you can earn less. It will depend on your experience and field.
