MWFRS Wind Loads
MWFRS pertains to a structural frame or an assemblage of structural elements working together to transfer wind loads acting on the entire structure to the ground. The system typically receives wind loading from more than one surface.
Unit Converter Spread Sheet
A unit conversion expresses the same property as a different unit of measurement. For instance, time can be expressed in minutes instead of hours, while distance can be converted from miles to kilometers, or feet, or any other measure of length.

Torsional Analysis of Steel Member
Torsional Analysis of Steel Member refers to the twisting of a structural member that is loaded by couples (torque) that produce rotation about the member’s longitudinal axis. In other words, the member is loaded in such a way that the stress resultant is a couple about the longitudinal axis and the response is a twisting motion about

Moment Connection Design for Beam to Weak Axis Column
A Moment Connection in structural engineering is a joint that allows the transfer of bending moment forces between a column and beam (or any other two members). If a child member (a beam) has some internal moment, the connection should be able to transmit the load due to that moment.

Gusset Plate
A gusset plate is a thin metal object, typically made of steel, that is used to affix independent members of a structure to each other or to a beam to aid alignment. Gusset plates are used in joint, bend or otherwise disjointed structural locations that require additional support to withstand stresses.
