So we received a very thick folder after the draft from the main contractor for the building application was prepared with the static calculation and the reinforcement plans.
First, the structural calculation of the house and then the instructions: This much steel must go in these directions so that the house does not break apart. Pages of paper with many thin lines for the reinforcement mats, etc.
It has to be done anyway for the craftsmen on site, so we got a copy right away. I mean, I once had to calculate some simple trusses in my studies, but that didn’t help me much, more than understanding approaches from the drawings. But I would take a look there for your questions to see if I can find matches between theory and practice.
Something like that could be requested from the main contractor; after all, you paid for it, I think.
