A beam transfers the load to the supports that in actual might be a column or a wall which in turn transfers the load to the foundation. Different Type of Structure / Beam Supports The supports are actually the conditions in which this load is distributed. The supports that are normally used in a beam … Read more
The algebraic sum of the vertical forces at any section of a beam to the right or left of the section is known as shear force. It is briefly written as S.F. The algebraic sum of the moments of all the forces acting to the right or left of the section is known as bending … Read more
Foundation substructures are structural members used to support walls and columns to transmit and distribute their loads to the ground. “Footing is the lowest part of the structure that distributes the load on a larger area to avoid any shear or axial failures of the structure” What is foundation? Design Criteria of Foundations For proper … Read more
Soil mechanics originated several decades ago under the pressure of necessity. As the practical problems involving soils broadened in scope, the inadequacy of the scientific tools available for coping with them became increasingly apparent. Efforts to remedy the situation started almost simultaneously in the United States and in Europe, and within short period they produced … Read more
In the near future, energy is converted as a luxury item and water is considered as the most vital item in the world due to reduction of water resources in most areas. In this condition, role of water science researchers is more important than ever. If a water engineering student is not educated well, he/she … Read more
