responses of a pedestrian bridge. To this end‚ we need to: Prepare sketches showing the layout of the structure including its member sizes and dimensions. Determine and calculate the design actions‚ load on the structure. Prepare for the structural analysis by establishing the appropriate combinations of actions for ultimate and serviceability limit states in accordance with the Bridge Design Code. Investigate the vibration characteristics of the bridge; perform Natural Frequency Analysis

building envelope is the area surrounded by insulation (red line). Foundation Foundation is one of the important physical components of building envelope especially for high rise building. Besides‚ foundation can directly influence the overall structural integrity of high rise building. Thus‚ durability of building enclosure systems is very significant. A foundation is the base on which a building rests and its purpose is to safely transfer the load of a building to a suitable subsoil. High

This has since been implemented by governments after the initiative by the international finance community. The community pushed for this under the structural adjustment programs and the community includes players such as the World Bank and others (Addison‚ T. and L. Demery. 2009).This enables the cutting of costs for the government and therefore will bring up the downsizing of taxes for the citizens
