In structural engineering, a shear wall is a vertical element of a system that is designed to resist in-plane lateral forces, typically wind and seismic loads. A shear wall resists loads parallel to the plane of the wall.
Shear Wall is a rigid vertical diaphragm capable of transferring lateral forces from exterior walls, floors, and roofs to the ground foundation in a direction parallel to their planes.
A stair flight is a run of stairs or steps between landings. A staircase or stairway is one or more flights of stairs leading from one floor to another, and includes landings, newel posts, handrails, balustrades and additional parts.
Flight is a continuous series of steps in one direction, separated by horizontal platforms or winders.
Landing, is the horizontal platform provided at the top-of a flight. If the landing is of a rectangular shape, having a length equal to twice the width of the stairs, the landing is called Half Space Landing.
Corbel is a short cantilever projecting out from a column, a wall, or the side of a beam.
ACI 318 restricts the term “corbel” to a member having span-to-depth ratio which is less than or equal to 1.0. Corbels are widely used in precast concrete construction.

Welded connections are connections whose components are joined together primarily by welds.
Welds can be classified according to:
Web buckling occurs when intensity of vertical compressive stress near centre of section becomes greater than the critical buckling stress for the web acting as a column.
The steel sections manufactured in rolling mills and used as structural members are known as rolled structural steel sections. The steel sections are named according to their cross sectional shapes. … Such steel sections are known as regular steel sections.
A slab-on-grade foundationis a structural engineering practice in which the concrete slab that will serve as the foundation for a building or other structure is formed from a mold that is set into the ground.
Slab on grade is also known as a floating slab foundation.
The effective depth of the beam is the distance from the tension steel to the edge of the compression fiber.
Meaning if you have a 400 mm deep beam with T20 tension reinforcement and a cover of 40 mm the effective depth is 400 – 40 – 10 = 350.
