The P-Delta Effect is a concept used in structural engineering to describe how tall structures, like skyscrapers, can become less stable when they experience both vertical and horizontal forces at the same time. The term “P” stands for the vertical load or axial load (the weight of the structure and everything it supports), and “Delta” (Δ) represents the horizontal displacement (the movement or sway of the structure).Read More →

Although steel has been used for structural purposes for decades, aluminum alloys are increasingly being considered nowadays for various applications such as building facades, curtain wall glazing, building cladding system etc. due to their unique properties. While construction is very important to ensure safety, durability, and cost-effectiveness of a project. Aluminum alloys can be a very good choice in terms of these properties. In this article we will discuss how it compares with structural steel.Read More →

In engineering and structural design, the selection of sections’ shapes plays a critical role in determining how a component or structure will behave under various types of loads. When it comes to torsion, which is the twisting of an object due to an applied torque, choosing Rectangular Hollow Section (RHS), or Hollow Structural Section (HSS), or simply hollow tubes would be a great solution to take care of torsion forces.Read More →
