With
the introduction of Strunet, response from structural engineering
professional has been very encouraging. Strunet team appreciates all the
positive feedback we received from our professional colloquies, see
testimonials. The feedback enforces Strunet's commitment to
providing the most friendly reinforced concrete design aids online.
The
need for the reinforced concrete design aids became a fact with the overwhelming
use of computers and structural analysis and design programs. The user of
such applications is probably exposed to forget and dismiss some of the
essential basics required to understand the core of the structural design.
Apparently, professors and educational facilities spared no effort to
educate us on the subject of structural design. However, digging for
information could be very challenging considering the number of recourses
to extract such information from, and presented in an organized method.
And that is precisely what strunet team had in mind, collecting all
information pertaining to certain subject, or element, and assemble it in
a very easy to follow, and yet comprehensive reference. These concrete design aid packages would
take those who are eager to know-how back to the roots of structural concrete
design in a very concise way.
At
the current time, reinforced concrete design aids are available for most
demanding elements in concrete structure design. They are:
American
Concrete Institute Building Code Requirements for Structural Concrete ACI
381-99, and Commentary ACI 318R-99 is the referenced ACI code in these
reinforced concrete design aids. Units used are English Units, i.e inches,
and kips units. Pending on the response form overseas, we may add Metric
units charts in the future.
