10B. DIMENSIONING PART 2/4

CHAPTER 10B 'DIMENSIONING' 104 5.3.1.1.2 Issue The issue is produced section by section, presenting the results of each plate in sequence. The first page is for the EVALUATION of the existing slab and includes both the slab data and the controls. The second page is about the ENHANCEMENT data and finally the third page shows the results of the controls. It is worth noting that in addition to the result on adequacy or not, the prints have incorporated OBSERVATIONS and ERRORS. Below are the results of an inadequate plate reinforced by considering Concrete Sheathing and alternatively IOP Plate . 5.3.1.1.3 Comments The OBSERVATIONS on the second page record data entry errors while the third page lists broader issues that the engineer should take into account during design or construction. The list of OBSERVATIONS is as follows: MANDYAS O.S. 1. There is a zero value for the length of the impingement. 2. There is an incorrect value for the Arms Zone Start or End coordinate. 3. There is a zero value of reinforcement spacing. 4. There is a zero value of sheath reinforcement diameter. 5. There is a zero value in the parameters for anchor action. 6. Reinforcement shall be placed in the transverse direction of the plate. 7. The loads of the sleeves shall be assigned to the beams. 8. The complete anchoring of the sleeve reinforcement must be ensured. IOP / CARPENTER'S TIRE 1. There is an incorrect value for the Arms Zone Start or End coordinate. 2. There is a zero value of reinforcement spacing. 3. There is a zero value for the number of reinforcement layers. 4. There is a zero value for the reinforcement strip width. 5. There is an incorrect reinforcement lane spacing value. 6. The distance between the strips shall not exceed 3 times the thickness of the element. 7. There is a zero reinforcement anchorage value. 8. There are parts of the reinforcement that are in an area under compression. 9. The number of layers of fibre-reinforced polymer should not exceed 3. 10. The number of layers of steel plate should not exceed 5. 11. The thickness of the laminates should not 4 mm. or 2% of the width of the laminate.
