Reinforced concrete structures
00:06
must be designed according to local codes,
00:09
there are many code specific parameters already loaded into ARS
00:14
A.
00:15
You can calculate the required reinforcement in a reinforced concrete structure
00:20
according to the applicable code
00:23
to calculate analysis of the reinforcement of slabs and walls.
00:28
You must first define the code parameters
00:31
for the panels
00:34
from the text menu. Select design
00:36
required reinforcement of slabs walls, options
00:40
code parameters
00:43
in the reinforcement type list.
00:45
Ensure the RC floor is selected.
00:48
Now
00:49
click within the panels field to activate it
00:52
and then
00:53
from the object inspector window,
00:56
right? Click floors
00:57
and click. Select all
01:00
the drawing area updates with all the floors highlighted as being selected.
01:06
Click again in the panels field
01:09
and the field updates with the numbers associated with all the floors.
01:14
Before applying the reinforcement
01:16
from the list of reinforcement types. Select RC floor.
01:22
This opens the parameters, dialogue of the reinforcement type,
01:27
open each tab in this dialogue
01:30
to verify that the assignments are correct
01:33
when finished,
01:34
close the dialogue
01:36
and back in the slab shell reinforcement. Dialogue,
01:40
click apply
01:42
the properties assigned to each panel in a structure can be verified
01:47
from the text menu, select view tables
01:51
from the table's dialogue, select slabs and shells and then click, OK.
01:57
A table displaying the reinforcement type
01:60
for each panel displays.
02:02
Close the table.
02:05
Now it's time to begin calculations of reinforcements
02:08
from the text menu
02:10
select design
02:12
require reinforcement of slabs walls, options
02:16
calculations
02:18
from the slab and shell reinforcement calculation dialogue
02:22
ensure the appropriate limit states
02:25
and deflection verification methods are selected
02:28
click, calculate
02:30
the time it takes to process the calculations depends on the structure
02:35
and number of combinations that were applied.
02:38
Once the calculations are complete,
02:40
close the dialogue
02:43
to view the results of the calculations
02:46
from the text menu,
02:47
select design required reinforcement of slabs walls, options
02:53
reinforcement maps,
02:55
this displays the reinforcements dialogue,
02:58
open the reinforcements tab
03:01
and in the X negative column
03:04
select area. A
03:06
click apply
03:08
the drawing area displays
03:10
mapping the results of the calculation.
03:13
Now in the X plus column,
03:16
select area A
03:18
and click apply
03:20
again
03:20
the drawing area updates with the results.
03:24
Next in the X plus tab,
03:26
select number of bars and click. Apply to view the results
03:32
to display cracking results.
03:34
Open the SLS tap
03:37
in the X plus column.
03:39
Select cracking A
03:42
and then click, apply
03:44
the drawing area. Displays the results
03:48
select cracking A again
03:50
this time in the column Y plus
03:53
again, apply the change and view the updated results.
03:58
Next,
03:59
select the first option for deflection you and click. Apply
04:05
the model updates to show deflection mapping
04:08
close the dialogue,
04:10
calculating the reinforcement of slabs and panels and viewing the results
04:16
allows you to see a variety of analytics for
