Book A Finite Element Approach to Reinforced Concrete Slab Design

Download or read book A Finite Element Approach to Reinforced Concrete Slab Design written by James B. Deaton and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of this study was the development of a procedure in GT STRUDL to design reinforced concrete flat plate systems based on the results of finite element analysis. The current state-of-practice of reinforced concrete flat plate design was reviewed, including the ACI direct design and equivalent frame techniques, the yield line method, and the strip design method. The principles of these methods along with a critical evaluation of their applicability and limitations were presented as motivation for a finite element based design procedure. Additionally, the current state-of-the-art of flat plate design based on finite element results was presented, along with various flat plate modeling techniques. Design methodologies studied included the Wood and Armer approach, based on element stress resultants, and the resultant force approach, based on element forces. A flat plate design procedure based on the element force approach was embodied in the DESIGN SLAB command, which was implemented in GT STRUDL. The DESIGN SLAB command provides the user the ability to design a slab section by specifying a cut definition and several optional design parameters. The procedure determines all nodes and elements along the cut, computes the resultant moment design envelope acting on the cross-section, and designs the slab for flexure in accordance with provisions of ACI 318-02. Design examples presented include single-panel flat plate systems with various support conditions as well as multi-panel systems with regular and irregular column spacing. These examples allowed for critical comparison with results from experimental studies and currently applied design methods in order to determine the applicability of the implemented procedure. The DESIGN SLAB command was shown to produce design moments in agreement with experimental data as well as conventional design techniques for regular configurations. The examples additionally showed that when cuts were not oriented orthogonally to the directions of principle bending, resulting designs based on element forces could significantly under-reinforce the cross-section due to significant torsional effects.

Book Structural Response of Reinforced Concrete Flat Slab Exposed To Heat

Download or read book Structural Response of Reinforced Concrete Flat Slab Exposed To Heat written by Mehrafarid Ghoreishi and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past century, fire protection design approaches have been traditionally based on prescriptive fire resistance ratings achieved from standard tests. Standard approaches do not consider a wide range of typical structural conditions such as size, restrain conditions and loadings that are encountered in real practice. On the other hand, fire resistance behaviour of a single structural member is different from that of complete structure because of factors such as continuity, interaction between members and moment redistribution which are present in the whole structure. In the past few decades, there has been significant progress in structural fire safety analysis and design. However, such analysis relies on simplified methods and experimental data related to structural components, not of the complete structure. There has been very limited attention given on fire safety evaluation at the whole structure level. Two-way concrete flat slabs provide a number of benefits for office buildings and apartments – for example, reducing formwork, flexibility of partitions, relatively high ceiling, and prompt erection. The fire resistance of concrete flat slab structures is affected by many factors including concrete cover, cross section of the structural elements and the material properties of concrete and reinforcing steel bars which is not essentially constant during fire exposure. Concrete has fairly excellent fire resistance properties; however, the strength of concrete reduces as temperature rises. There is a lack of studies, both analytical and experimental, on flat plate concrete slabs in the literature. This thesis presents a review of the available experimental and numerical studies on structural systems under fire, and identifies the research gaps in this area. Ultimate punching and moment capacity of concrete flat slab systems are studied numerically and experimentally. The numerical study includes the investigation of the effects of different parameters such as concrete and reinforced steel bars behaviour and the structural behaviour of two-way slab at elevated temperature. The fire performance of a concrete flat plate slab at elevated temperature is complicated. The existing concrete codes cannot predict the capacity under fire exposure and detail investigation is needed to predict fire resistance of flat slabs. Structural concrete design for fire is still in the developing stage in various parts of the world. There is a lack of experimental studies, mainly because of the difficulties associated with a setup for high temperature and high cost of experiments. The main work of this study is the experimental and numerical analysis of slab prototype under combined elevated temperatures and gravity loading. Thermal exposure may cause sudden failure of the concrete slab structures. An experimental program conducted on six concrete, slab-column assemblies are presented to investigate their performance in high and ambient temperature. A numerical model is also presented and compared against test results. One of the main costs is the additional specification or protection required to provide adequate safety in the event of a fire. Current structural fire protection systems focus on limiting the rate of temperature rise of formwork and concrete cover. This work addresses the parameters that can affect the slab behaviour under fire exposure to prevent collapse. Fire protection by fire barrier or structural modifications is concerned with safeguarding the occupants in the building where the fire may occur. Structural modification should be investigated in detail because some of them have direct effect where others do not have significant effects.

Book A Segment Design Method for Reinforced Concrete Slabs  microform

Download or read book A Segment Design Method for Reinforced Concrete Slabs microform written by William J. Kerr and published by National Library of Canada. This book was released on 1982 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis presents a lower bound segment method for the design of reinforced concrete flat slabs. The investigation focused on the development of the methodology and recommendations for the use of the procedure to aid the designer in producing safe and serviceable slab designs. A brief look at previous lower bound design methods for slabs is included and the results summarized. The procedure consists of dividing the slab into rectangular segments bounded by lines of zero shear. For various support conditions boundary moments are applied to satisfy equilibrium and moment compatibility between segments. For each segment type, solutions obtained from an elastic finite element analysis were used to evaluate the internal distribution of moments corresponding to different boundary moment configurations. Three design examples are presented to introduce the method and to show its applicability to regular and irregular slab problems. The resulting moment fields are compared to elastic solutions.

Book Metaheuristic Approaches for Optimum Design of Reinforced Concrete Structures  Emerging Research and Opportunities

Download or read book Metaheuristic Approaches for Optimum Design of Reinforced Concrete Structures Emerging Research and Opportunities written by Kayabekir, Aylin Ece and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2020-03-20 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reinforced concrete structures are one of the major structural types and must adhere to design regulation codes. It is ideal to find the best design (section dimension, material type, and amount of reinforcement) with the minimum cost providing the design constraints (design formulation considering loading of structure). Metaheuristic methods inspired by natural phenomena can consider design constraints by combining the analyses of formulation of reinforced concrete structures with an iterative numerical algorithm using several convergence options of random generation of candidate design solutions. Metaheuristic Approaches for Optimum Design of Reinforced Concrete Structures: Emerging Research and Opportunities is a pivotal reference source that focuses on several metaheuristic algorithms and the design of several types of structural members. Additionally, retrofit applications and seismic design issues are considered for readers in earthquake zones. Highlighting a wide range of topics including algorithms, design variables, and retrofit design, this book is ideally designed for architects, engineers, urban designers, government officials, policymakers, researchers, academicians, and students.
