EXAMPLE 1. NEW BUILDING DESIGN FROM REINFORCED CONCRETE

EXAMPLE 1: 'REINFORCED CONCRETE CONSTRUCTION STUDY' 30 2.7 How to simulate the basement walls: There are several methods for simulating the walls of the basement. In this example, the method "Beams in columns" was used. A basic prerequisite for substantial modifications to the physical model is the deletion of the mathematical model. For the 1° level (basement roof), from the "Toolssection>> " Model " select the command " Convert beams to columns ". In the dialog box select one of two options and enter the appropriate number. First you draw the mathematical model of the beams that will be converted into basement walls. Then you select the command and left click on the level 1 beams to be modified and automatically the program converts them into successive columns. Level 1: You can repeat the same procedure on the foundation level or copy these new columns of level 1 th to level 0 using "Copy" command. First delete the corresponding connecting beams from level 0. Then, call the command and select the objects you want to copy. The selection can be done either individually, by window, by polygon, etc. You then press the right mouse button to indicate the end of the selection and point to a feature point (line end, pole top, beam end, etc.). Go to level 0 and set the corresponding point for copying the objects. The modelling is completed by creating the mathematical model and connecting the nodes of the columns with rigid rods.
