Hello all, I am looking at the following joint in a concrete structure. Could someone help me understand the joint in more detail? Could someone explain how the difference type of reinforcement works in the joint? How is the reinforcement activated, what does the specific reinforcement prevent and so forth. Thank ou very much.

Hello all, Could someone please explain to me how I should compute the wall bearing capacity of a concrete wall which has a thickness of 180mm, a length of L and height H. The wall has multiple pointloads and distributed loads. How should I work with these loads combined? Can I transform them to a total distributed load?

I appreciate the reply. I don't quite follow. Firstly, you say that member AH and DE are load bearing walls. Are members BG and CF not load bearing? Why, why not? Member BG receives load from its tributary area. This load is a distributed load on member BG that can be calculated as a singular load by multiplying with the length of member BG. Dividing this singular force by two we get the support-reactions at B and G which are shown in figure (b) of the the solution. So the reactions are shown in figure (b) but not in figure (c). What is the reason for this? I mean, is there any technical reason for this? I greatly appreciate the feedback.

Hello all, I am considering the frame shown in exercise 2-7 (see attachment1). I have attached the solution to the problem (see attachment2). My question is: a) in figure (c) in the solution, why are there no loads at point A and point D coming from the distributed load on member AH and DE? b) in figure (c), why are there no support-reactions at point A and point D? Thanks!

Hello all, I just found this forum and I just want to say that I love it already. Thanks to those responsible! I also have a structural question. I have attached a sketch of the situation. I am considering a concrete wall with a balcony and an L-profile (both hang on the side of the wall).The concrete wall has a frontpart consisting of isolation and bricks.The steel-profile also carries some load.My questions are: 1) How are the forces from the balcony and the profile transferred to the concrete wall. How do they affect the wall and how do I design the concrete with these two elements hanging on the side of the wall.2) How do I work with openings in the concrete wall?I have attached a sketch of the situation.I appreciate it.
