Q1. What is the Difference between Equivalent Static method and Response spectrum method?
Ans. 
Equivalent Static method uses a single static load to represent dynamic effects, while Response Spectrum method uses a spectrum of loads based on dynamic characteristics.
• Equivalent Static method simplifies dynamic analysis by using a single static load to represent the effects of all dynamic loads.

• Response Spectrum method considers the dynamic characteristics of the structure and applies a spectrum of loads to determin...read more

Q3. Steel Truss concept
Ans. 
Steel truss is a structural framework designed to support loads over a long span.
• Steel trusses are commonly used in bridges, roofs, and other structures to provide strength and stability.

• They consist of straight members connected at joints, forming triangles to distribute loads efficiently.

• The design of steel trusses involves considerations such as span length, load requirements, and material properties.

• Examples of ste...read more

Q1. What is the SBC (Soil Bearing Capacity) of Adyar?
Ans. 
The Soil Bearing Capacity of Adyar varies depending on the specific location and soil composition.
• Soil bearing capacity is typically measured in terms of pressure per unit area that the soil can support without failure.

• Factors affecting soil bearing capacity include soil type, moisture content, compaction, and depth.

• For Adyar, the soil bearing capacity can range from 1000 to 5000 kN/m^2 depending on the specific locati

Q1. Design of Retaining Wall
Ans. 
Designing a retaining wall involves analyzing the soil conditions, determining the load it will bear, selecting appropriate materials, and ensuring proper drainage.
• Consider soil type and slope of the land

• Calculate the load the wall will bear

• Select appropriate materials such as concrete, stone, or timber

• Ensure proper drainage to prevent water buildup

• Include reinforcement like steel bars if needed

Q2. What is P-delta Analysis
Ans. 
P-delta analysis is a second-order analysis method used in structural engineering to account for the effects of axial loads on the overall stability of a structure.
• P-delta analysis considers the interaction between the applied loads and the deformed shape of the structure.

• It is used to assess the stability of tall or slender structures, where the effects of second-order forces become significant.

• P-delta effects can lea...read more
