Beams are horizontal members of a structure that are slender and support loads applied perpendicular to their longitudinal axis SIMPLY SUPPORTED BEAM : It is a beam supported freely at the two ends of walls or column. OVERHANGING BEAMS : In overhanging beam, its end extends beyond the wall or column support. CANTILEVER BEAMS : It is fixed in […]

TRUSSES & IT’S TYPES
A framework composed of members joined at their ends to form a rigid structure, built from basic triangles in the manner described is known as truss or simple truss. Trusses can be mainly divided into two types: BRIDGE ROOF TYPES OF BRIDGE TRUSSES • PRATT BRIDGE TRUSS • HOWE BRIDGE TRUSS • BALTIMORE […]
STEEL GRATINGS AND TYPES
A Steel grating is an open grid assembly of metal bars , in which the bearing bars , running in one direction, are spaced by rigid attachment to cross bars running perpendicular to them or by bent connecting bars extending between them. STANDARD WELD BAR GRATING : Standard bar grating with rectangular sections. CLOSE MESH BAR […]
Codes And Standards
Code A code is a model, a set of rules that knowledgeable people recommend forothers to follow. It is not a law but can be adopted into a law. Code will serve as generally accepted guidelines for design, fabrication, construction and installation. StandardsStandards can define as a set of technical definitions and guidelines. Or simply […]
STEEL STRUCTURES: Advantages & Disadvantages
Structural steel is one of the materials which used for any kind steel construction, it is formed with a specific shape. These steel materials are of certain standards of chemical composition and proper strength. Advantages of steel structures Steel has a high strength to weight ratio Prefabrication and mass production Can be built with the high-quality […]
Civil Engineering
Structural engineering is engineering discipline that deals with the analysis and design of structures that support or resist loads. Structural engineering is usually considered as a sub discipline of civil engineering. Structural engineers work is mostly designing of buildings and large non building structures, The designs of Structural engineers must satisfy given design criteria, predicated […]
STRUCTURAL ENGINEERING FOR CIVIL/ ARCHITECTURE PEOPLE
Structural engineering is engineering discipline that deals with the analysis and design of structures that support or resist loads. Structural engineers work is mostly designing of buildings and large non building structures. Structural Engineer is professional whose responsibility to design a building or any other structure that meets code and life safety standards must be integrated […]
