What is an i-beam? and How it Works? | Design Squad

Do you know what an i-beam is? Watch as Nate explains this important building tool and demonstrates its use. You will be amazed by its strength and load bearing properties.
DIY dome homes built from AirCrete are an affordable & ecofriendly option

DIY dome homes built from AirCrete are an affordable & ecofriendly option

First there was foamcrete, then there was papercrete and hempcrete, and now we've got AirCrete, a foamy mixture of air bubbles and cement that is cheap to make, waterproof, fireproof, and DIY-friendly.
Sand Castle Holds Up A Car! - Mechanically Stabilized Earth

Sand Castle Holds Up A Car! - Mechanically Stabilized Earth

Dirt is probably the cheapest and simplest construction material out there, but it's not very strong compared to other choices. Luckily geotechnical engineers have developed a way to strengthen earthen materials with almost no additional effort - Mechanically Stabilized Earth (aka MSE or Reinforced Soil)
Architecture Students: Then Vs Now

Architecture Students: Then Vs Now

To be certain, architecture students are required to perform a wide variety of skills to complete a project. But thanks to some guys named Gates and Jobs (among many others), we are now able to execute nearly all of our tasks on one magical machine: the computer
Fire and Safety Features of High-Rise Buildings and Structures

Fire and Safety Features of High-Rise Buildings and Structures

Fire and other safety features of high rise buildings and structures is essential. Types and concerns related to these features is discussed.
FACTORS AFFECTING STRENGTH OF CONCRETE

FACTORS AFFECTING STRENGTH OF CONCRETE

Concrete strength is effected by many factors, such as quality of raw materials, water/cement ratio, coarse/fine aggregate ratio, age of concrete, compaction of concrete, temperature, relative humidity and curing of concrete.
How To Calculate Quantities Of Cement, Sand & Aggregate For Nominal Concrete Mix

How To Calculate Quantities Of Cement, Sand & Aggregate For Nominal Concrete Mix

Mix design is a process of determining the right quality materials, relative proportions to prepare concrete of desired properties like workability, strength, setting time and durability. Nominal mix concrete is prepared by proportioning of cement, sand and aggregate to obtain target compressive strength.
The Disaster That Changed Engineering: The Hyatt Regency Collapse

The Disaster That Changed Engineering: The Hyatt Regency Collapse

The Hyatt Regency Hotel collapse was a disaster that changed engineering: it's taught in colleges and universities as a way to make it clear: you check and double-check everything. Something that seems like a subtle change can cause a catastrophic failure if it's not thoroughly checked first!
