Just curious, from 6:25 onwards you have your fly brace connection selected and called up as 'Standard Roof Fly Brace Connection' - Is this an available out of the box connection? Or is it a custom and / or Advance Steel connection? Cheers
The edge strip footing top right at 14.57. You are essentially making it a continuous raft? Should there not be a stepdown notation? If not there is a re-entrant corner there not detailed. Drawings should have a step notation.
I become upset when I compare this to what I'm learning at my local college. The professor pretty much just has us trace everything and turn it in. He doesn't use layers, for example. He just makes a copy of what he has displayed, and erases "one by one" of whatever he doesn't need.
This is the best video!!! I too would love to see the next one mentioned about how to do internal beams - but i could not find it. Any help? Your videos are really great.
On your roof framing plan, 0:50 , you show 'VB1' wall bracing represented by stick symbols offset from their locations> Are these just drafting lines or has the modelled structural framing brace got something in the family that allows you to display this? Would love to know
Hi Nathan, great video! Question: Is there a way to model the chamfer edges of internal concrete beams (like the ones you have for the display pic of this video)? I’ve tried using a beam family and it shows up fine in section but then my floor plan ends up with more hidden lines (from the chamfer and the internal concrete beam)? 🤔
Hi Thanks heaps for your effort. I’m studying building surveying, and after watching your video, I can say I know so much about footing now. Thanks heaps again
Say you need to move something in your plan. Would it move everything in your detail?? I got kind of chewed out by someone I was trying to impress with my detail
How do you start designing, like do you get soil data from geologist, then according to the AS 2870 if needed use Walsh or Mitchell method....what is your guidance?...if capacity of soil is not less than 100 kPa than you do not need calculate....
Most data incl. geotechnical comes from a Surveyor in Australia. Some Surveyors can work as building Certifier and approve some building works. Geologists are most in Big Mines and Big sites...
@@tbijondagmail Surveyors and Geotechnical usually work together so their info is combined to be presented to a structural engineer or building designer
That is strange, cos where I worked on site in Au, geotechnical Engineer came, took samples of soil, went to his lab to do tests and Voila, he sent back soil results. Some companies work differently...
@@tbijondagmail They do that to save money that's why some companies have a surveyor in-house! Some big companies have all professionals in one house: structural, mechanical, architect, a surveyor. In Big 5 companies (Probuild, Lend Lease, John Holland, Fulton Hogan) have all professionals in their companies!
In the office, they do not teach people to use programs, they may teach you their process of presenting their drawings! As in using Town planning or Construction templates!
