DISCUSSION Design Concepts for Jib Cranes Paper by JAMES FISHER and STEVEN THOMAS (2nd Q. 2002) Discussion by MICHAEL HEMSTAD I thank the authors for a very thorough and informative article on jib cranes. To this‚ I would add the following regarding maximizing the crane’s effect for column design. For a single jib crane on a column‚ the position of the jib crane resulting in the maximum effect on the column can be calculated as follows. The position of the jib crane is described by the angle

Soil mechanics is one of the new disciplines of civil engineering‚ concerning the study of soil. It gathers data and provides the theoretical base for analysis in geotechnical engineering. In earlier times‚ constructions were built based on assumptions. After some important foundation-related engineering problems‚ example of the Leaning Tower of Pisa‚ engineers

1. The use of knowledge and understanding of mathematics in engineering context. Mathematics is science of pattern that engineers seek out whether found in numbers‚ space‚ science‚ computers‚ imaginary abstractions‚ or elsewhere. Knowledge and use of basic mathematics have always been an inherent and integral part of engineering. In our previous semester‚ basic mathematics was applied in almost every module. From stress analysis of simple machine components to numerical description of various
