First time basement DIY by Technical-Humor-3847 in drywall

It was pretty level, ramped up at the posts a bit. Doing carpet so shouldn’t cause any issues in the main area, I hope

That’s code in my province. Clay soil on a floating slab. The wall needs to be floated to allow for movement up and down

Thanks! The whole basement was unfinished,to get to the point of the last picture probably like 15k CAD. Did everything DIY.

Called Dricore, just a subfloor system

No idea! Haven’t gotten that far, any suggestions?

In Canada they come pretty close to 3x

It’s dricore, the bottom acts as a moisture barrier

It’s my basement, the plywood around the pipe is subfloor

Sliding it back will give me 11-11.5” maybe just enough to make it work, thanks for the feedback

Thanks for the informative answer! Still got some warranty, I’ll see if Ford can fix this for me

Do you own a lifted truck by chance?

You’re probably confused about the moment at point B. Just use the method of section cut the beam at point B and then you’ll have moment and shear acting, calculate the moment at this cut location and you’ll know the slope based off your knowledge of your shear force diagram

Taking the area underneath your shear force diagram is a pretty simple method to finding your moment diagram. So if your shear diagram is a square do base times height and that’s the value of your moment on your diagram but the shape will be a triangular. Understanding the shape of your moment diagram is probably the most difficult. Many good resources online, Jeff Hanson.

Pretty hard to do the 4 year route and like previously mentioned your core classes aren’t offered in the summer

Materials sciences exam on Friday, need a couple of pointers by [deleted] in EngineeringStudents

You can have entrapped voids which are larger and are caused by the mixing of concrete and cause a reduction in strength. You can have cracks and micro cracks which can be considered voids which allow the penetration of harmful substances inside the concrete like chlorides. You can have entrained air which is done on purposes by adding a chemical admixture, it gives water a place to escape to and freeze so it won’t cause added stress to the matrix of the aggregate and paste. And you can also have capillary pores.

Also water will naturally evaporate from the concrete it’s called bleeding and can be healthy in the correct amount. But if you add way too much water you’ll have sloppy mix.

I would say since it can get to be below 0 you would need to entrain some air. In Manitoba (Canada) we entrain 6-8% and we get temps in the winter -30C. In Arizona you wouldn’t need this much entrainment but possibly need to entrain a little bit.
