Bridgewater Bridge, Tasmania.
Technical Advisory group of engineers’ advice ignored by State Government and builder.

This is what happens when professional engineers allow themselves to be bullied and pushed around by greedy #corporate bureaucrats who have no respect for or understanding of applied science or reality.

Why Structural BIM is Essential 🏗️

•90% of design conflicts resolved before construction starts.
•40% reduction in rework costs by minimizing human errors.
•30% cut in material wastage through optimized design.
•20% reduction in overall project costs via streamlined workflows.
•10% reduction in schedule overruns.

Building safer, smarter, and more sustainable structures.

I’ve been living in temporary accommodation since the start of the year. Our landlord is attempting to build additional floors on our building. In September, as part of the preparatory work, they damaged the roof, and my neighbours and I had water pouring into our homes.

In #StructuralEngineering #Analysis, #InfluenceLines are used to depict the variation of quantity at a particular location as the location of a #Load or #Action is changed. In the #Animation shown, we can see the change in #BendingMoment in a #StaticallyDeterminate #Beam as a unit force moves from one end to the other. The #BendingMomentDiagram and the influence line for bending moment at the centre of the left-hand span, B, are shown.

Just finished the "beta" of my javascript sparse matrix solver. For testing, I first created a 20000 x 20000 sparse test matrix A and the vector c. Solving the equation Ab=c took 20 seconds. Quite feasible for a javascript code I guess. With the solver I want to carry out some finite element analysis in a web browser.

Differentiating between shear walls and columns is crucial in structural design, especially when their geometries overlap. While both elements transfer loads, their behavior under stress, reinforcement requirements, and design criteria vary significantly. #ShearWall #Structuralengineering #ColumnDesign #AspectRatio

This is a #photograph I submitted to #Wikipedia of #MeldonViaduct in #Devon, #England. It is a historic #structure from the #Victorian era, made of #iron (not steel) and is #ListedBuilding, on the outskirts of #Dartmoor. It was historically a #Railway #Bridge and was used to carry #Quarry material from #Meldon Quary to nearby #Okehampton. Nowadays it is part of the #GraniteWay

A couple of days ago I posted some #eigensolutions for a #structural #dynamics #model in which I showed the two possible #modes of free #vibration. Here is a #linear #superposition of the two which looks amusing IMHO.
