Great content as usual, I wish your channel had been around when I was a student!

[@Harris_Jey]

Thank you, this is great. I am an Architecture Masters's student and I have a keen interest in understanding the basics of Structural Engineering, I find your videos very helpful.

[@westonmeans7321]

Awesome Video Dazz. Thanks!

[@alexmaila952]

Good video mate

[@colum9675]

Time permitting Darren, but might you be able to cover in another video the optimal location for cores and actually modelling them effectively in analysis software? Torsional effects, centroid of system and the implications of this location, to name but a few pointers. Would be much appreciated.👍

[@EverydayDazz]

Will add it to the list :)

Please use the red book and show us the work for columns.

Great video, thank you ❣

[@ibrahimjafaru6031]

Love your teachings,

[@chernankosam1]

Thanks for a great video. Is there a precedent in the code for designing a shear wall as a column using the strip method? I would have thought that this would need to be designed as a wall as this section of the code would pick up buckling effects and other phenomena specific to walls? Perhaps as your example had significant compressive stress it could be designed as a column rather than a wall.

[@ElisarYildiz]

Hi Thank you for the explanation. I was wondering how you understood that the walls were not under the tension at @4:44 of the video?

[@matthias7142]

Sum of bending stress and axiale stress is still positive so no tension

[@orfeaspapaioannou2755]

what does the (18+10)/2 implies? There are 4 walls (1,2,3,4) having orientation of their major axis parallel to wind force.

[@matthias7142]

It is the area of the façade you have to take in to account for wall 3. Like half of the span between wall 2 and 3 and half of the span between wall 3 and 4
