~12 April 2010~

Today whole day checking the beam size and reinforcement steel bars for a beam of a double-storey terrace house. Basic requirement is to come out with the bending moment diagram to show how the moment is distributed and identify the maximum moment acting on the beam. Due to basic knowledge is not strong enough, it takes the whole day to just calculate the it. Finally manage to calculate it and found that the original design was under-design. Will check again tomorrow to confirm correct or not my calculation.

*All calculation are done by manual (hand) calculation due to my department is infra department, meaning that we don't have structural software in our department.
