1527 Words7 Pages

Most of the structural design of buildings worldwide follows the codes of practice which are produced either through the experts in the country or through adoption of design codes from other countries. These codes of practice are document which drawn up by experienced engineers and a team of professionals as baseline or guideline for engineer in the general appraisal of the overall structural scheme, detailed analysis and design including the framework for addressing issues of safety and serviceability in structural engineering design (Nwofor, Sule, & Eme, 2015). Many improvements have been done to standard code of practices since more than thirty years ago due to changes in design and development. Standard that have been improved have been …show more content…

It is expected that in building structures there will be material cost savings of between 0 and 5% compared to using British Standard. Eurocodes now claimed to be the most technically advanced structural codes in the world and the design performance code has more advantages over British Standard. Due to these reasons, Malaysia also has decided to adopt Eurocode in line with the withdrawn of British Standard. However, still a lot of questions arise on the significant differences of Eurocode 2 to the British standard 8110. Besides that, in order to design structural elements many steps, formulas and calculations are needed based on codes of practice. Therefore, to ease the designing process, Microsoft Excel spreadsheets will be developed in order to carry out the design of structural elements. This spreadsheet can produce a design output faster than manual hand calculations. This final year project is focusing on the comparison of serviceability, limit state, bar anchorage and lap lengths of beam design according to British Standard 8110 and EC 2 using Microsoft Excel. A case study of a single storey reinforced concrete …show more content…

After that, descriptions of serviceability, limit state, bar anchorage, and lap lengths in structural analysis are explained. In this chapter will also discuss on reinforced concrete beam including comparisons design principle based on BS 8110 and EC2. At the end of this chapter briefly mention about the findings from previous studies which will focus on the parameters differences of serviceability, limit state, bar anchorage, and lap lengths based on BS 8110 and EC

HIPAA mandates two types of codes for the transfer of data. First and most importantly, uniform codes are needed to describe diseases and injuries, describe the causes of the diseases and injuries, and to describe the preventions and treatments used. Secondly, there are smaller sets of codes for many administrative purposes—for describing ethnicity, the type of facility or the type of unit where care was performed. As much as possible, the major codes have been chosen based on code sets that are already in use, known as "legacy

Assignment 2 CVE80006 Infrastructure Deterioration Modelling Concrete Crack Diagnosis Assignment The phenomenon of cracking in concrete may depend on several factors such as the amount of loading, rate of bleeding, amount of stress and strain generated in concrete, the composition of concrete and method of fabrication. The cracking of concrete has become severe due to advance construction process which demands high strength structure requiring an increase in stress, strain, and deflection resistance. The cracks in concrete are mainly classified as structural crack and non-structural crack.

Cracks are expected at intervals in this slab (Usually .90 to 1.2m) and are held together with structural steel. Appropriate spacing between cracks must be determined in order for this method to work. Continuously reinforced roads can sometimes be more expensive than the other two methods due to the higher quality of steel used in its construction, however this can be lowered by the reduced amount of cement used in the concrete mixture due to the thinner layer of concrete in comparison with the other two methods. With proper management, this method can be similar to the other two in terms of durability and cost
