Computer design of steel framed buildingsFoo, Frankie L. C. January 1985 (has links)
The art of structural design lies in the selection of the most suitable structural system for a given structure. The arrangement of beams, girders, trusses and columns to support gravity design loads determines the economy and functional suitability of a building. Much of the cost of a steel framed building is in the floor system. Due to the lack of suitable optimization schemes, numerous trial designs might be necessary to ensure that the most economical system has been selected.
Therefore, a computer program is developed as a design aid to make such studies practical in a design office.
The program, developed on a mini-computer, is capable of designing structural components of steel framed buildings. These components include gravity columns and floor framing members such as simply supported beams and girders, cantilevers, beams and girders with overhangs,
trusses and stub-girders. The program is based on the requirements
of CSA Standard CAN3-S16.1-M78, "Steel Structures for Buildings-Limit States Design". In addition to its ability to select steel sections, quantity take-off and cost estimates features are incorporated
in the program. / Applied Science, Faculty of / Civil Engineering, Department of / Graduate

Factors affecting the accuracy of quantity surveyors pre-tender price forecasts in South AfricaPearl, Robert Gilfillan 14 April 2020 (has links)
The primary purpose of this dissertation is to identify the factors which affect the accuracy of South African quantity surveyors' pre-tender price forecasts. Prices submitted by bidders at the tender submission stage of project development are utilised as the best practical measure for establishing the degree of accuracy achieved. A large number of design price forecasting techniques are available to estimators. Many of the techniques used in the early stages of design are applicable for providing budget
amounts for design control purposes, whilst others are more· appropriate for forecasting anticipated tender sums. Features of price forecasting requiring attention at all stages of design development are identified as: (i) the influence of uncertainty inherent in the process, (ii) data / information availability and management, and (iii) the utilization of tendering data by means of 'feedback' systems. The factors affecting the accuracy of price forecasts are examined by means of a literature study, opinion surveys of estimators and empirical research on the results of estimate /tender comparisons. The relevance of the question of pre-tender price forecasts is demonstrated by the results of the study which indicates that the accuracy and reliability of South African quantity surveyors' estimates produced at the tender stage is inferior to that generally found overseas and do not meet the expectations of architects and clients. The conclusions drawn from this study indicate a distinct potential for improvement in
early design stage price management.
