Not until you WIN that’s when you get the chance to say something before that observe, learn, do, repeat, win more, repeat, then you’ll know when it’s time to speak and to who exactly!

Kimi Antonelli has turned his profile picture black after facing a barrage of online abuse after the #QatarGP. Nothing in sport warrants that kind of behaviour - especially towards somebody so young. Sending him our support 🤝

TWO-WAY SLABS
(Reynolds Formula & Tributary Area Method: A Comparison)

In Reynolds formula, the slab loads are distributed as UDLs to the beams, not as triangular or trapezoidal loads. However, the formulas are to be used to determine the bending moments ONLY and good for designing the beam. The formulas for distributing slab load to the beams supporting rectangular slabs can be found in Reinforced Concrete Designers Manual by Reynolds and Steedman (11th Ed. 2008) pg 144.

This post also tries to answer the question why the formula might not be suitable to determine the shear forces in the beams by performing simple structural analysis.

The bending moments results from the hand calculations formula is accurate and matches #AutodeskRobot results. However, hand calculations results using the Reynolds formula produced higher support reactions (69.3kN and 112.6kN) while the tributary area method produced on AutodeskRobot (51.98kN and 86.62kN) for short span and long span beams respectively.

Now this is a simplified explanation for all the engineers that don’t understand how the loading comes about.

[Olakunle K. Akinola @Kunlevski003]

COLUMN LOAD TAKEDOWN.
(Two-way Slab Load Distribution)

In two way slabs, the slab loads are distributed to all the supporting beams of the slab panel. A line is drawn at 45° at each slab corner to create tributary areas for each adjoining beam creating trapezoidal loading for the beams on the long side and triangular loading for the beams on the shorter span of the slab panel.

These areas are multiplied with the ultimate design load of the slab to create a point load acting at the middle of the tributary area. Moments are taken at respective ends to calculate the end reactions, which in turn is used to determine the load takedown at the corner columns. The hand calculations are shown in the images attached.

The floor slab was modelled on #AutodeskRobot with the larger panel analysed as two-way and the small panel as a one-way slab respectively as shown in the images. The results using both methods are the same.

(Note: The self-weight of the beams and columns was ignored in this result)

[SAMSON @samsonshittu01]

To give context to this passage, let us first look at Psalm 127:1

"If the LORD does not build the house, the work of the builders is useless"

This clearly states that your hard work is in vain unless it is blessed by the Lord.

Now we look at verse 2 which says

"It is useless to work so hard for a living, getting up early and going to bed late. For the LORD provides for those he loves, while they are asleep".

Having understood the context that comes before this passage, what this verse is clearly talking about is that peace and prosperity comes to those who trust in God and not in their own hardwork.

You may want to counter this and say, but we have wicked people who do not believe in God and they are also successful. Even Jeremiah in Jeremiah 12:1 asked this same question.

Psalm 73 also addressed this question and lets us know that the prosperity of the wicked is temporary, they may gain the whole world and still lose their soul.
