  Calculate beam and column strength
Posted by: ribak - 12-30-2010, 04:48 PM - Forum: Free Discussion - Replies (5)

I am looking for a software which can calculate the moment capacity of doubly reinforced concrete beam when concrete strength, steel strength, beam cross section, number of rebars and so on are given as input.
Also, with the similar input, I also want to calculate the interaction diagram of RC column so that the capacity of existing column can be determined.

This guide is the second in a series of three giving guidance on the design of masonry structures to Eurocode 6. The first guide, Introduction to Eurocode 6 gives an introduction to design and assessment of actions using Eurocode 6 and also covers the specification and execution (workmanship) of masonry. This guide explains how to design for vertical actions and determine vertical resistance. The third guide in the series covers the design of laterally loaded masonry panels. Throughout this guide the Nationally Determined Parameters (NDPs) from the UK National Annexes (NAs) have been used. These enable Eurocode 6 to be applied in the UK.

EN 15255:2007 Energy performance of buildings - Sensible room cooling load calculation - General criteria and validation procedures

Author: CEN/TC 89 | Size: 0.53 MB | Format: PDF | Publisher: CEN | Year: 2007 | pages: 45

[Image: 24323230246046956001.png]

This European Standard sets out the level of input and output data, and prescribes the boundary conditions required for a calculation method of the sensible cooling load of a single room under constant and/or floating temperature taking into account the limit of the peak cooling load of the system. It includes a classification scheme of the calculation method and the criteria to be met by a calculation method in order to comply with this European Standard.

The purpose of this European Standard is to validate calculation methods used to:
- evaluate the maximum cooling load for equipment selection and cooling system design;
- evaluate the temperature profile when the cooling capacity of the system is reduced;
- provide data for evaluation of the optimum possibilities for load reduction;
- allow analysis of partial loads as required for system design, operation and control.

The validation procedure is used to check the room sensible heat balance model, taking into account:
- the external surface heat balance;
- the conduction through the building envelope;
- the effect of the thermal mass of the structures;
- the internal surface heat balance;
- the air heat balance;
- the heat balance solution method.

All other aspects are given either by fixed boundary conditions or by input data and are not in the focus of the model validation. It is assumed that for all these other matters e.g. embedded heating and cooling systems, prescriptive models have to be used according to existing European Standards.

Informative Annex A gives a simplified method for cooling load calculation.

  THESIS - Design of walls with linear elastic finite element methods
Posted by: parhyang - 12-30-2010, 11:18 AM - Forum: Civil Engineering MSc and PhD thesis - Replies (2)


THESIS - Design of walls with linear elastic finite element methods

Author: Marc Romans | Size: 3.94 MB | Format: PDF | Publisher: Delft University of Technology | Year: 2010 | pages: 123 | ISBN: none

[Image: 10408846584343394082.png]

Abstract

This thesis focuses on the design of reinforced concrete walls with the use of linear elastic finite element methods. Since the introduction of Eurocode EN1992, the set of design standards in which design requirements related to concrete structures are committed to paper, it is allowed to derive the required amount of reinforcement directly from the membrane forces which follow from a linear elastic finite element analysis. This method deviates however at some points considerably from common design methods. Compared to the common design methods the moment diagram is for example no longer shifted over a specific distance during the design of beams to prevent failure due to the development of inclined bending cracks. In addition, the assumed linear elastic isotropic material behavior in the finite element analyses results in the computation of load transfer mechanisms which deviate considerably from mechanisms which are expected to develop in practice. These deviations gave rise to analyze this recently approved design method in further detail, indicated by the term linear elastic finite element method (LE-FEM) henceforth.

The linear elastic finite element method is verified by considering a large number of single- and several two-span beams. The required reinforcement of these beams is determined with LE-FEM by taking all relevant provisions of the Eurocodes into account. In a subsequent step the structural behavior of the considered beams was analyzed by means of a non-linear finite element analysis, in which a similar level of reliability was taken into account as during the design process. These nonlinear analyses, which are performed in ATENA, are capable to predict the actual behavior of concrete.

Structural analyses of the considered specimen led to the following main conclusions:
· Assuming linear elastic material behavior of concrete for reinforcement design with LE-FEM of structures does not approximate concrete behavior in an accurate way.
· No direct relation is found between the limited amount of longitudinal reinforcement which reaches the supports and the observed failure mode. Concrete crushing in the compressive zone, caused by flexural deformations, turned out to be the normative failure mode.
· Reinforcement designs according to LE-FEM of the considered beams do not meet requirement related to crack control in the serviceability limit state. It is not possible to determine the stresses in the required distributed reinforcement without the application of advanced (non-linear) methods, since there is no direct relation between the applied load and stress development in individual reinforcement bars.
· Design of structures with LE-FEM which are loaded by a compressive force and contain symmetrical reinforcement, such as columns, results in an overestimation of the concrete compressive strength since eccentricities and second order effects are left out of consideration.
· Redistribution of considered two-span beams in case differential support settlements appear is insufficient to withstand settlements which are allowed by the codes.

  THESIS - Verifying the correctness of structural engineering calculations

Verifying the correctness of structural engineering calculations

Author: Douglas William Brown | Size: 1,7 MB | Format: PDF | Publisher: University of Surrey - UK | Year: 2006 | pages: 542 | ISBN: Thesis - No ISBN

[Image: 03328279219207644051.jpg]


[Image: info.png]

Approximately 50% of calculations submitted to building control departments for approval are now produced by computer. Engineers say that due to the pressure of work in the design office, checking is not as thorough as they would like. From the starting position that the data has been checked, this research develops an extensive set of models which are self checking and have each been verified with sets of automatically generated data providing extensive coverage for each model. All systems are described in sufficient detail such that they may be used by others.

The systems developed for verifying the correctness of structural engineering calculations, based on:
• the inclusion of an automatic self-check in every structural model
• the development of a parameter specification table permitting
• the automatic generation of engineered sets of test data for each model
• the automatic running of the sets of test data for a thousand runs for each model
• the automatic reporting of the results giving a statistical summary are all new to the field of structural engineering.

Verifying the correctness of structural engineering calculations considers calculations for both the structural analysis of frameworks and the structural design of components such as beams, slabs & columns, and develops a unified approach for the development of Verified Models for both types of calculation. In this thesis, verifying means establishing the truth or correctness of software models by examination or demonstration.
