10B. DIMENSIONING PART 2/4

CHAPTER 10B 'DIMENSIONING' 36 3.2.1 Selectively to selectively size the poles or walls. Select the command and then point the mouse at the post or wall you want to dimension. The program displays a coloured dot in the centre of the pole. The colour changes according to the type of failure as follows: • Red . Failure from biaxial bending. Exceeding maximum 4% reinforcement percentage. Dense Connectors. • Pink . Failure by shear/torsion or by exceeding the plasticity limit. In the results you can see the failure ratio. • Cyan . The pole was dimensioned without any problem. Initials indicating the type of failure also appear on the pole: Flexion from bending Κ Shear fracture Δ Periphrastia by periphyton ωwd A misstep of sadness ν Torsional stress fracture T Crossing of connectors Σ Exceeding % of reinforcement ρ Exceeding the rising axial ν 3.2.2 Overall to make an overall dimensioning of the poles and/or walls of the study, per floor or for the whole building. Selecting the command displays the following dialog box: where you choose whether to dimension the columns and/or the walls of the floor or the whole building.
