🤷♂️🤷 Qui dit "étude de sol" dit "bureau d'étude géotechnique". D'accord, mais lequel ? Comment choisir sur des critères objectifs... 👇 ✅ 𝗤𝘂𝗲𝗹 𝗯𝘂𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘂 𝗱'𝗲́𝘁𝘂𝗱𝗲 𝗴𝗲́𝗼𝘁𝗲𝗰𝗵𝗻𝗼𝗾𝘂𝗲 ? : https://buff.ly/3XxNSKG #ingénierie #géotechnique #etudedesol #construction #btp #architectes #acrchitecture

Timber: Resilience beyond measure! As we stand on the precipice of progress, it is imperative that we acknowledge the significance of seismic resilience in our built environment. The tremors of uncertainty may shake the very foundations of our structures, but let us stand firm in our conviction that timber buildings possess an inherent strength to withstand the test of seismic activity. In the face of adversity, it is natural to seek refuge in the familiar. Steel and concrete have long been regarded as stalwart guardians against the forces of nature. Yet, I stand before you today to challenge this notion, to usher in a new era of construction where timber emerges as a formidable contender in the realm of seismic resilience. The wood does not tremble. This simple truth resonates deeply within the core of our being. It speaks to the innate strength and resilience that timber possesses, transcends the limitations of traditional building materials. In the event of an earthquake, timber buildings, even those towering multi-storey structures, stand resolute, defying the very forces that seek to tear them asunder. But what sets timber apart? It is the meticulous craftsmanship, the unwavering dedication to excellence that goes into every facet of its construction. It is the connections that bind us together, the sinews that reinforce our collective resolve. For years, we have tirelessly tested and refined our methods, honing our expertise to perfection. linvite you to delve into the depths of our research and development, to witness firsthand the mechanical prowess of our connections. Through rigorous experimentation and analysis, we have unlocked the secrets of seismic resilience, paving the way for a brighter, more secure future. As stewards of progress, it is our duty to embrace innovation, to embrace change. Let us cast aside the shackles of convention and embrace the boundless potential of timber construction. Together, we shall build a world where resilience knows no bounds, where the wood stands tall amidst the chaos, a beacon of hope in a world fraught with uncertainty. So, I urge you to join us on this journey, to stand shoulder to shoulder as we chart a course towards a safer, more sustainable future. Together, we shall defy the odds, for in unity, there is strength, and in timber, there is resilience.

La réalisation d'une #étude_géotechnique_routière est cruciale dans le processus de #conception et de #construction des #routes, car elle implique une analyse approfondie des caractéristiques du #sol et du #sous-sol pour garantir la #stabilité et la #durabilité de la route. Le #terrassement constitue une phase essentielle dans l'exécution d'un projet routier et nécessite une étude approfondie. L'objectif de cette étude géotechnique est de minimiser les coûts de terrassement en choisissant judicieusement le tracé et la ligne rouge en tenant compte de la nature, de l'état et de l'emplacement des sols à terrasser. #chaussées #genie_civil #engineering #béton #construction #civilengineer #engineering #infrastructures #project #béton #structural #batiment #structure #calcul #project #engineers #béton #ingénieur #ingenierie #architectes #architecture_design #reinforcement #Concrete #Béton_armé #SETRA_LCPC

Vous avez un projet de construction ou de rénovation ? Les fissures peuvent vite devenir un casse-tête ! Personne n'est à l'abri des #fissures. Elles peuvent apparaître tout de suite ou quelques années après une #construction. Il est très important de faire des études préalables à la construction tel que l'étude géotechnique, réaliser plan de structure... Votre future #maison doit s'adapter à votre #terrain et non l'inverse. Archi'Ed vous accompagne sur vos projets. #geotechnique #béton #sol #maisonindividuelle #travaux

*Sunday with Sanjay CHITNIS* Dear friends, Good morning, This Sunday we are going to discuss more about wind speed impact on buildings / structural design. Cyclonic storms, that hit some of the coastal regions of India, are the most devastating due to extremely high wind speeds accompanied by sea surge and flooding. These can last several hours. Tornados, which are a narrow band phenomenon of limited time duration, often occur during the summer, mostly in Northern parts of India. It is assumed that the mass density of air as 1.20 kg/m3 , which changes somewhat with the atmospheric temperature and pressure. The three main types of wind load forces are uplift load, shear load, and lateral load. The main difference between these loads is the direction that the wind load is enforcing on a structure. Internal pressures are not influenced much by the external shape or geometry of the building but are primarily a function of the openings in it & hence small openings, holes in roof, should be repaired before cyclone /warning. Overhangs (horizontal /upward/ downward) from a building are affected by wind pressure acting from underneath. Structures which are relatively stiff are not dynamically sensitive to wind. Flutter is unstable oscillatory motion of a structure due to coupling between aerodynamic force and elastic deformation of the structure. Long span suspension bridge decks or any member of a structure with large values of d/t ( where d is the length of the member and t is its dimension parallel to wind stream) are prone to low speed flutter. Slender cylinders, such as those with h/D greater than 5 may experience aerodynamic effects in the along-wind as well as across-wind direction. Tall flexible buildings would respond to wind dynamically not only in the direction of wind (along-wind or drag) but also normal to the flow direction (across-wind or lift). A wind tunnel model study is required to determine the flow pattern and to carryout the design accordingly. There are several methods using WIND TUNNEL to predict structural loads & responses of tall buildings e .g. High frequency balance method,High frequency pressure integration method, aero-elastic model method. A 1:50 scale model of the top third of the tower ( Burj Khalifa) was built and tested in a wind tunnel at speeds up to 240 km/h. Special studies were conducted to determine the extent of the stack effect, or chimney effect. Stay healthy,agile,busy & cool. Enjoy yr Sunday #wind # structure# tall buildings# flutter
