How Buildings Are Engineered To NOT Collapse - What Structural Engineers Actually Do

I do prefer the buildings that don't fall down, so thank you, structural engineers.

Good day Engr. Paano ba maging isang licensed structural engineer dto sa pilipinas?

Great video!

Thank you for your video, iam in my 1st year as a civil engineering student. I want to be a structural Engineer🥺👷🏻‍♂️

Hello Mat, nice an clear video, tell me what structural software do you use for analisis?, like the showing in the video

do you have any courses so that I can take it on undemy?

This is really incredible. Thank you so much and please try to give us, this type of video.

Useful video with clear explanation which was easy for to understand. Any videos about how the wind load is performed..?

the Kingdom of GOD is coming…“Silver is for the kettle, and gold for the furnace, but The LORD is the tester of hearts- Proverbs 17:3” your heart is like discovered silver, dirty and not pure, when silver is purified it is melted over and over, to the point that when it’s melted and glows red hot, it is pure enough to see your own reflection in the puddle, so also does the LORD purify your heart, till HE can see HIS own reflection in it, seek the LORD and be reborn, ask The LORD to renew and restore you, repent and be baptized for the forgiveness of sins, Jesus died so that our sins will be wiped away and so that we could be made new, if would be wise you would be wise for yourself, pick up your cross and deny your flesh and follow the path of GOD, for The you Kingdom of GOD is at hand, in JESUS MIGHTY NAME Amen and Amen

Structure engineering vs architecture who is earn more money

How do you know that the ground isn't going to shift and the foundation isn't going fail? I've seen homes on the side of hills but how do you know the ground isn't going to shift and there will be a landslide? This is always my main concern. For buildings not on hills how can you guarantee that the ground is solid enough?

i was in a parking garage under a building today and was wondering how everything stood up! thank you!

i am seeing this guy's face way too much. i'd prefer to see content. also, PSA to everyone: "blueprints" are no longer used. you may find some in the archives of really, really old buildings. but please do not refer to floor plans as blueprints in order to avoid sounding ignorant.

sir, big fan ❤🇧🇩

Thank you for this video. Very informative and helpful for those with anxiety about staying in tall buildings

First rule Foundation, second rule foundation, third and final rule foundation PERIOD!!

The problem with nearly all designs is 1. Corruption. i.e. bribes, use of different materials by the builders/contractors, cutting corners. etc etc. 2. Miscommunication. 3. What's designed is rarely if ever translated to a build i.e. last minute changes, additions, subtractions etc etc. 4. Costs are ever increasing. 5. Last but not least is poor or incorrect design.

Overcome all of the above and the build might be completed to everyones satisfaction. But until then we will get more Surfsides.

structural advertiser stayaway :)

Thank you, really interesting and useful for work

More collapsings are coming

Great video, Mat!

Excellent Presentation!

This video answer my confusing Sir. Please can you make one for bridge for me. thank you, very informative video, and educational.

Amazing, i'm gonna be studying architecture in the fall so this is all very important for me to learn early.

Everyone in the comments is an engineer, I’m just a stoner 😂

Thanks, I was wondering last night, what if it was a residential block and ALL the tenants place their heaviest loads on one corner of the building and left the other side empty. Won't it eventually slant and break if left for long periods?

what is the best software in analyzing a building?

Worst thing.. You charge very less. 😂

Do structural engineers need to take dynamics?

Good bro

Thankyou Sir
What software you recommend/use for structural engineering load estimation & simulations

promo sm

Sir, what do you think about the buildings thats collapse on turkey earthquake ?

Best video engineer

Thanks

I recall a question a principal at a structural firm in Lagos Nigeria asked me. The moron spent more time trying to understand how I did the calculation than the duration of the interview.

Great

As A Civil Engineering student at my 5th year, This 10 mins video about Structural engineering was more informative and constructive..
Thank you for those interesting informations .

Don’t do civil engineering, you’re basically doing everything for the architect.

thanks sir

Hey sir I think the loads from the slabs will be transfered to the beams first before into the columns? But anyway good explanation 👌🏻

The best video I've seen. It's amazing how clearly you explain it all. Thank you, Mat!

What causes the cracks around RC beam hollow areas

Not as simple and straight forward as he puts it
Before the advent of computers, analysis and design was undertaken manually

Engineered like the twin towers not to collapse and building 7 being "pulled" (controlled demolition).

Yes the truth is out there; only for thosr who want to see.

Great job Matt. Good to see you doing well.

This video tells us that structural engineering works in three fields Analysis, Design, and Drawing So it's better to learn each software from all those fields thanks mat for the wonderful video.

I'm curious to know what is included in an architect formation in the USA, I don't know if it is the same but the 1st phase of analysis that you mention doesn't work like that here in Italy! As an architecture student we are tought to design (roughly or so) the structure, even using structural engineering softwares like SAP, and THEN you go to an engineer to properly define the job. In this way you can keep everything under control, given that you won't have to apply massive changes for unespected issues. In the USA the architects don't have the structural responsability of a project and that's why or they simply "don't want to risk it"? Thanks whoever will answer!!

What about foundation and soil analysis?

My brother you should have been there when certain engineers built certain multistory buildings with supporting beam structure so low quality that they melted from a fuel fire

Sir i am completing bsc in civil Engineering. So what would be best.structure designer or a project engineer.
How long it takes to learn designing. Etabs,sapp,or how many app need.i am confused actually what to do.i really love mechnics of something. Is there any opportunity for me after my graduation for msc in usa.if there is then what's the process.
Listening you From Bangladesh 🇧🇩🇧🇩..
