    As opposed to current practice of using them in confined spaces, could a tuned mass damper be used in an open public space like stadia because these vibrate alot.

    • @EngineeringManagement
      @EngineeringManagement 23 години тому

      @atuhedavis5119 Indeed! Stadiums, especially during large events, experience significant vibrations primarily due to crowd movement. Theoretically, tuned mass dampers (TMDs) could counteract these vibrations, much like they mitigate wind or earthquake-induced oscillations in skyscrapers. However, challenges exist in scaling the technology to stadium size, determining optimal placement, ensuring aesthetic integration and safety, and managing the potential cost. Yet, advancements in engineering may eventually lead to TMDs or similar technologies being implemented in stadiums to enhance comfort and structural longevity.

Is there a possibility for this and, if so, would it make retrofitting mass timber structures for new, bigger load uses easier than it would for a steel or concrete structure? thank you for the interesting vid

      @EngineeringManagement 23 години тому

      @Er.Sunil.Pedgaonkar While obtaining professional licenses like CEng, PEng, or PE can be beneficial for credibility and certain projects, it's not always a strict requirement to start an engineering firm. Many successful firms are launched by engineers without these designations, focusing on their expertise and building a strong reputation. It's important to understand the specific regulations in your region to ensure compliance.

    Hi, Will the soil nailing still be an effective if the slope height exends more than 100 metres. How to relate the slope height and the efficiency?

    • @EngineeringManagement
      @EngineeringManagement Місяць тому

      @karmanima1408 Soil nailing can be effective for slopes exceeding 100 meters, but the efficiency relationship becomes more complex. Here's why: Limited Nail Length: While nails can be long, there's a diminishing return beyond a certain point (typically 0.8-0.9 times the slope height). Longer nails may not significantly improve stability compared to the extra cost. Soil Properties Matter More: Cohesion and friction angle of the soil become even more critical for tall slopes. Stronger soils allow for efficient nail reinforcement over larger areas. Design Optimization Needed: Engineers will need to carefully analyze the slope using advanced methods to determine optimal nail length, spacing, and inclination for maximum efficiency. So, while soil nailing is still possible for very tall slopes, it demands a more intricate design approach to maintain efficiency.

    Really cool conversation, one thing I want to point out to those that want to integrate custom technologies into their workflows is that planning beforehand is crucial to avoid the "excel problem." What I mean by "excel problem" is that engineers develop their own excels often specifically for a singular analysis to suite a particular need; as more of those excels are developed engineers end up having to thoroughly QC excels before using (or build a new one... and the cycle continues) wasting time and resources. Creating custom tools can be very effective in increasing productivity, but you have to have clearly defined goals before developing to get the most value. I'll leave you with a quote from Linus Torvald to consider when developing custom technologies "Bad programmers worry about the code. Good programmers worry about data structures and their relationships."

      I couldn't find anything online about it, however if you want to look into what the tool it is called Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG). In a nutshell it uses takes user provided documents and feeds them to LLM's, like chatGPT, allowing users to ask the LLM about their specific data. I believe you can pay for this functionality directly from OpenAI, but if you want to build the tool in house there are a ton of tutorials on how to do it. If development is a rabbit hole you want to go down the easiest way to experiment with RAG models is through LM Studio (no code required this way) or if you want to code I recommend tutorials about RAG applications using the latest Mistral LLM's (these are one of the better open source models and the smaller ones can run on your home computer). If you dont want to run them on your home computer google collab is also a valid method (should be a bunch of tutorials for that as well).
