Lecture 4 Preliminary Structural Design

Part 1: Take-home and Viva activity related to topics covered in LO1. |You work as a mechanical software engineer in a mechanical company which provides modelling and design services for different types of mechanical applications. Your main tasks are to analyze and assess different designs and obtain optimal solutions prior to any prototyping or manufacturing step. Your direct manager assigned you to work on specific tasks for different running projects. Project 1: Simply supported beams are usually used in structures due to their high stability and performance in resisting shear stress and bending moment, they are applied in variety of applications such as steel-frame used for advertisement cars' chassis and bridges. Your role in a structure design company is to analyze and design the bridge based on simply supported beam theory. Your manager asked you to calculate the distribution of shear force, bending moment and stress đue to bending for bridge modeled as simply supported beam…

- Present a design proposal, utilising a selected alternative construction method, and explain how it is ‘fit for purpose’ in the given context. 1- Produce a design proposal, using computer-aided drawing tools, utilising alternative construction methods. 2- Present a design proposal that utilises alternative methods of construction. 3- Evaluate the effectiveness of using computer-aided drawing software and BIM. 4- Justify the use of a chosen alternative construction method.

Who hires the mechanical, electrical and plumbing engineers for building design? Who is responsible for coordinating the MEP design with the other design disciplines? Where do the MEP engineers state what applicable building codes they are designing under? Where do the MEP subcontractors look to find the equipment manufacturers' names, unit model numbers and rough-in requirements? 5. Fill in the correct Master Format specifications divisions numbers for the following scopes of work: HVAC Plumbing Electrical 6. Where does the plumbing subcontractor look to find the sizes of the sanitary sewer drains and vents? 7. The International Plumbing Code does not require an emergency roof drain system. 8. What applicable building code applies to the electrical systems? 9. The electrical engineer will indicate on their plans the routing of all conduit for the distribution system? True False True False

Case study The contractor received a submittal package from the curtain wall subcontractor. Per the specifications, product data, shop drawings, finish samples, fabrication sample, product test reports, field test reports, and design analysis are required. The product data, shop drawings, and finish samples are specified as action submittals, the other submittals are specified to be informational submittals. The curtain wall shown on the drawings was a generic system and the specifications provided a list of three acceptable systems, which had slightly different methods of fabrication and attachment to the building structure. When the curtain wall installation is 10% complete, the specifications call for the contractor to perform water spray and air leakage tests. The results of these tests are to be submitted to the architect. The curtain wall manufacturer prepared the action submittals, the product test reports, and the design analysis and gave them to the subcontractor to submit.…

research work: 1. Discuss the Architectural working drawings for project construction in detail. references:

List without explanation the various stages of road construction and the necessary materials used in road construction. (Add references)  Note: this is not a writing assignment.

Find and evaluate 2 (two) construction processes or technologies in your work or everyday life that have either a poor or a good design in relation to occupational safety and health or public safety and health. Present your findings considering the design aspects, the User Experience, changes you propose or the design aspects that promote good design, and other supporting information via a maximum 1-page report for each design. Pictures, checklists, and other supporting materials can be added as appendices and are unlimited.   NOTE: I NEED PICTURES AND REFERENCES TO THESE ANSWERS

Rising insurance rates coupled with the increasing difficulty of obtaining the right type of: skilled labour; materials; and plants needed to efficiently bring the project to a successful close have made a difficult job more challenging. This is one of the reasons why Resource Management in the construction industry is more important. As a Construction Manager in a reputable Class D1 building construction firm in Ghana, you have been tasked to develop effective policies for managing the major construction resources to enable your firm to successfully complete a project. The policies must capture issues in…
