✅ HOW TO DECIDE THE SIZE OF A COLUMN? 1️⃣ Depend On Load ◾Column Size Is Decided Based On Dead Load, Live Load, Wind/earthquake Forces, And Building Height 2️⃣ Thumb Rule (G 1 or G 2 Building) ◾Minimum size: 9” × 12” (230 mm × 300 mm) ◾With 4 or 6 bars of 12 mm dia (Fe500) ◾Clear cover: 25 mm 3️⃣ Slenderness Should Be Avoided ◾Effective Length / Least Lateral Dimension . Ratio Should Not Exceed 12 To Avoid Buckling. 4️⃣ Factors to Consider ◾Total Number Of Floors ◾Floor Load Beam Load ◾Soil Bear

How does building height affect structural response? In this experiment, we use a shake table to simulate the impact on 3, 5, and 7-story structures, showing how height influences vibration and stability. A clear visual of concepts that are often hard to grasp in theory. - Como a altura de uma edificação influencia sua resposta estrutural? Neste experimento, usamos uma mesa vibratória para simular o impacto em estruturas de 3, 5 e 7 andares, revelando como a altura afeta a vibração e a estabilid
