Proc. Instn Ciu. Engrs, Part 2, 1985,79, Dec., 623-635 PAPER 8905 STRUCTURAL ENGINEERING GROUP Evaluation of centres of resistance in multistorey building structures B. STAFFORD SMITH, DSc, PhD, FICE* S. VfiZINA, MEngt A concept is proposed for the centres of resistance of a building structure. A method of determining the centres of resistance, from a two-dimensional analysis of a planar model of the building, is developed. The knowledge of the location of the centres of resistance allows floor to be calculated, and from this the total torque any storey, in the torque induced at any without having to make a full three-dimensional analysis of the building...

Conditions surrounding two storm surgesin the Clyde Sea area are described. A numerical technique based on the method of characteristics is tested on a simple shelf configuration for which analytical solutions are available. This is then applied to the established tidal motion in the area using models having different levels of discretization...

REGAN, BSc, DIC, PhD* The Paper reports fifteen tests of slabs post-tensioned in one direction and intended to represent the regions around intermediate column supports of prestressed slab bridges. All but three of the tests ended in punching failures and the results are used to develop an extension of the recommendations on punching of the draft revision of C P 110, that is an extension to allow for prestress...

GUPTA, PhD* In this Technical Note, the angularity of naturally-occurring and crushed aggregatesis used as a measure of their hydraulic resistance to seepage in the non-Darcy regime. The relationship between the angularity and the size of particles for materials of different shapes is also investigated. On the basis of extensive experimental results of angularity number tests on various sizes of different materials and their mixtures in different proportions, an equation (equation (5)) connecting the angularity with the size of the material is developed...

SZLENDAK, BE,MSc,PhD* Steelframeworksareoftendesignedusinghollowsections. For economicandaesthetic reasons, the joints are manufactured as simply as possible, that is welded directly tube to tube. However, these types of connection ought almost alwaysto be classified as semi-rigid, which gives rise to two problems. The first is at what level of the applied loading thejoints are still working elastically, which is important in its relationship to the design load; the second is the question the stiffnessof such joints, both the overall the local rotation in of and the connection...

DAVIES, DSc,FICE,FIStructE* Thin walled open section beams are often subject to combined bending and torsion. The no bending calculations cause difficulty but the torsional calculations, incorporating both St Venant and warping torsion, have frequently caused problems. However, the differential to equation governing the torsional behaviour provesbe identicalto that governing secondorderbendinganditfollowsthatidenticaltechniquesofanalysismaybeused.Inthis Technical Note, it is shown that both stability functions and, more importantly, secondorder plane frame computer programs may be used to obtain solutionstorsional bending to problems...

Bulman, Consultant The Authors have made out a good case for eliminating S T M F R Q from their recommended equation (7). Apart from reasons the given, the inclusion of STMFRQ only serves to distort thesignificance of the Slope factorsince, as might be expected, Table 4 shows good correlation between the two factors...

Lam Mr S. A. W. Bowman, Member It is surprising to read in the Paper that engineers are in need of a wind loading code of practice whichis capable of assessing typhoon wind loads accurately, therefore leading to safe and economical designs. Bridge engineersin Hong Kong have been using the wind load provisions of BS 5400: Part 2,26 suitably amended for Hong Kong conditions with the aid of the Royal Observatory, since 1977, and are apparentlyachieving safe and economical designs without diffculty...
