  • Minimum Pocket Depth for Coloumns

    Minimum Pocket Depth for Coloumns

    What is the minimum pocket depth required for rebated coloumns

    The minimum washer size is 3 mm. This could be different. If nothing is mentioned use 3 mm.

    The minimum bolt stick out should be 1 pitch. For M20 it is 2.5 mm. Use 10 mm stick out.

    Also there is grout. Pockets when cast could be of different depths. Use design grout of 15 mm minimum.

    The top of the bolt should be 35 mm below slab level to prevent concrete Cracking.

    Hence to be practical use 100 mm pocket depth with a base plate thickness of 16 mm and bolt size of 20 mm.

    • Demo: Select (Panel) Lines which are Open or Closed (Precast, AutoCAD .net)

      Sometimes we have a need to identify – and quickly – lines which are open and lines which are closed – especially prior to running any operations on those lines involving regions. Here is a demo of a little plugin I wrote. It goes through the modelspace and finds all the line segments which are…

    • Comparing Lines – IEqualityComparer (AutoCAD .net)

      It’s not very often that I write something on the Autocad .net API, so here’s something which you, I suppose, will need one day:   If you want to compare two lines, with a tolerance, in a collection then you’d need a LineComparer. The MSDN guide says that one should inherit from EqualityComparer, so unquestioningly,…

    • Turning AutoCAD curves into Revision Clouds (AutoCAD .net API)

      It seems a common scenario that folks want certain polylines/curves etc to turn into a revision cloud. How do we do this? At the end of the day, the revision cloud is nothing but a polyline. You could roll your own polyline which handles the bulges and vertices so that it looks like a revision…
