Sentence examples for most designed codes from inspiring English sources
It is the requirement of most designed codes that the calculated safety factor of a member should be greater than a specified safety factor, a value at least larger than one, in order to ensure the safety of the designed structure.
To achieve a relatively consistent probability of failure for structural elements, most design codes apply reliability based code calibration process.
However, although strength grades well in excess of 690 MPa are possible with modern metallurgical processes, these are not compliant with most design codes of practice.
Most design codes consider the static and fatigue resistance of composite steel concrete structures with separate verifications for ultimate limit state and the limit state of fatigue.
Most design codes do not pay much attention to such deformations and adopt a simple linear analysis for the calculation of deflections.
Most design codes stipulate the method for temperature prediction of the steel/concrete composite beam in fire through empirical formulation or tabulation.
The discussion is focussed on the determination of the spring stiffness of the stiffened element, a problem which has not yet been addressed in most design codes.
Most design codes (Model Code 90, ACI-318-2008 and Eurocode 2-2004) suggest that the effect of a geometrical imperfection ought to be taken into account in the most unfavorable direction when designing slender reinforced concrete columns.
Ultimate limit state requirements for plastic design stipulated in most design codes are based on the assumption that structures using this design method are ductile enough to sustain plastic deformation without premature failure.
In such type of structure, the connections often need reinforcement to resist the tensile capacity of the bracing to comply with the capacity design procedure recommended by most design codes.
The "shear-friction theory" has been developed considering shear failure as pure slippage, and not in combination with a tension crack, and it has been adopted in most design codes worldwide.
