hello, again ! It`s almost mid-summer, but temperature outside is only 16 deg. ;(  so it`s right time to write short summary about passed month and perspective plans. The last month was quite tense, because I got to complete all my university half-year projects, like industrial buildings project from reinforced concrete. The main problem was calculate cross sections of bearing elements (columns, footings, roof panels..) and assign right reinforcement diameter. Other task was creation the multi-storey building in Lira9.4  and Monomah 4.2 computer programs to determinate right reinforcement amount for columns, plates and beams. Later results from these two programs was compared- results was tolerable. Also some time was spent to create report about practice in design office  as construction drafter.

The progress on my bachelor project was really slow, because uni projects took a lot of time. Also I make some structural analysis works for money. With my supervising person – doctor Kaspars Kalnins we determine the direction of further research->  it is bearing capacity research for plywood sandwich panels. Actually there is a two kind of sandwiches: ones with a simple ribs and others with advanced waved forms ribs  called v-core.  For all this kind of sandwiches we will create computer model and compare results with nature experiments. The goal is to create maximal precise calculation  methods of plywood sandwich panels and determine the most effective cross-section form of panels. Current situation with research  – comparing computer results with experiment results from local plywood manufacturer.

That all for now, contuning will be soon !
