This research aimed to compare the ultimate load of 10 waffle flat slabs with different sizes of solid area and spacing between ribs. For this, a non-linear computational simulation of the slabs was ...

The kitchen might be the stomach of the home, but with so many appliances and not much room for anything else, it can be hard to create a space that's both pretty and practical. Fortunately, a ...

Once seen as a preserve of coastal architecture, flat roofs have become a must-have in Kenya. But are flat roofs really designed to withstand the country’s diverse climatic conditions? This design was ...

Because standards are intentionally conservative for most projects, but new design methods are changing, project-specific design optimization is required to provide safe, cost-effective, and ...

Abstract: This paper investigates a dynamic slab design problem in the steel industry, where order demands arrive dynamically during a given period. Slabs are the raw materials for producing order ...

What if you could transform your design projects with a single, versatile toolkit? Enter the world of flat graphic design, a style celebrated for its bold simplicity and unparalleled clarity. In the ...

The structural behavior and the ultimate punching shear resistance of internal reinforced concrete flat slab-column connections, with one hole adjacent to the column, with or without flexural moment ...

MuzzleB now has a hole for poking the catch pivot pin out from the other side. There is now a thicker MuzzleB in the alternate files folder, made to be stronger. The thicker MuzzleB does not fit ...

Reflecting changing currents in engineering design and material availability, the American Concrete Institute has updated its 318 standard to ACI 318-25, with a new sustainability guide and updated ...
