i sure this section will be hottest & most useful section of CivilEA.

in this section you can put complete drawings of a specified project.
for example full drawings of a 4-story steel project.
or drawings of a specified bridge.
feel free to put any kind of drawings here (DWG, PDF, ...)

but please put complete definition in thread name & description field.

yesterday one of my colleague was asking me whether i know any simplified method of solving continous beams and frames within 2 mins. was wondering how its possible coz i knew only classical methods which take atleast 15 20 mins?

Hi

i`m trying to prepare standard drafting procedures for structure & architecture drafters in our company.
this standard include all things that a drafter must be follow for draw a drawing by atuocad. lincluded:

- how sections, details, views, ... numbering or drawn.
- standard title block
- standards layer & color
- what thing a drawing must be have? (north, key plan, refference,....)
- ....

this document help us to produce nice & same drawing even with different draftes.

I need some similar document, book to provide our standard base on it .

anyone have a document or book like this?

Just a thought that states my attitude to structural engineering and civil engineering

There are two ways to study a natural problem: they are the purely scientific and engineer way. The way of pure science is only interested in getting the truth. In this way there is only one answer, the real, no matter how long it takes to achieve it. For the engineer there are many possible answers, when all they are compromises between truth and time, because the engineer must have an answer in time. Your answer should be sufficient for a certain purpose, although not strictly true. Therefore the engineer must make assumptions, these assumptions that in some cases are not strictly correct, but nevertheless possible to obtain an adequate response to the real immediate purpose.
The structural engineering is therefore the art of using materials whose properties can only be estimated, to build real structures, which can only be approximately analyzed in order to resist the actions that are not sufficiently known, so that our responsibility to public safety is met.
In short, if an individual has five minutes to solve a problem whose life depends on its resolution, the same individual should spend three minutes to study and understand the problem and two minutes to solve it. "

Could anyone share the following ebook "Commercial Drafting and Detailing" please?

hi all,

If anyone has a copy of the following, kindly help me by posting it.
