  • 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.

    • How to obtain a small offset around a polyline? (AutoCAD .net API)

        Offsets from a panel are used extensively in detailing. Here’s how to do it – simple, no? See below:   DBObjectCollection _offsetPolylines = polylineInstance.GetOffsetCurves(25); // offsets the polyline by 25 mm // the object collection should really have only one item in it: a polyline offseting the original by 25mm.

    • The importance of identifying the assumptions Behind Every Problem

      My estimable colleague Rafik Ben made a blog post concerning a problem. For reference, here it is: http://routetomastery.com/blog/2017/01/08/has-pair-with-some-problem/ So what’s so good about Rafi’s problem? Well like most things in the world, the problem, is not the actual problem. When it comes to computer science, the *actual* problem lies in identifying or understanding it. And…
