Optimum Weight Design of a Singly Reinforced Rectangular Concrete BeamBy Temple Nwofor, Sule S.
Abstract: In this paper, the results of the optimum weight design of a simply supported singly reinforced concrete rectangular beam under uniform loading with respect to bending moment, steel ratio and design variable constraints are discussed. The design constraints were derived based on BS 8110, Part 1, 1997 design rules. The values of the design variables that optimized the self-weight of the beam subject to the constraints considered were obtained using …

Static Analysis of Precast Concrete Piles using Resonance Moment–Displacement MethodBy Temple Nwofor, Sule S., Ihuanne E.N.
Abstract: This paper presents the results of static analysis of circular precast single piles from critical buckling load by resonance moment-displacement approach. The circular precast single piles of different support conditions; pinned-pinned, fixed-fixed, and fixed-pinned were investigated. The critical buckling load was evaluated as the resonance moment-total deflection ratio. A computer program coded in basic language was invoked to carry out a composite analysis of single piles from critical buckling load …
