Ubc 97-1612.4 Special Seismic Load Combination
Ayesha reacted to Muhammad Hassan for a topic
Under what conditions we should use load combinations mentioned under Subject heading in UBC -97? As per my research we should use them only for " Element supporting Discontinuous System"-UBC 97-1630.8.2 and for "Collector Elements"-UBC 97 1633.2.6. So, there is no need to use these combinations for all structures and its components (Exceptions are mentioned above). Is my understanding correct? Please reply with referrence1 point -
once you are in design office you never get that much time. I dont think its practical.1 point

Ubc 97-1612.4 Special Seismic Load Combination
UmarMakhzumi reacted to Badar (BAZ) for a topic
Yes , you r right. ubc 97 requires us to use those combinations only for members supporting discontinuous system. Where ever uniform ductility demand is lacking in vertical members ( Bangale's book). It seems logical to extend this requirement to connections in steel structures.1 point -
Comperision Of Cube & Cylender Crushing Strength
Yasir Saleem reacted to Ayesha for a topic
For undergrad level I would say Cylinderness Effect. Its actually due to a thing called size effect. Test two cubes with different dimensions, you will have different results.1 point -
