6. SLABS

CHAPTER 6 "SLABS" 16 - Finally, assign each vertex of the equivalent rectangle (which symbolized by a triangle) at points in the physical model to make the reduction of the length of the sides of the mathematician to the physical ones, so that the loads of the equivalent plate will be distributed to the actual lengths of the physical members. The matching is done by first selecting the vertex of the mathematical model and then pointing the mouse at its new position. The process is repeated for the remaining 3 vertices of the mathematical model without cancelling with the right mouse button. OBSERVATIONS: When matching the sides of the mathematical and physical model, you do not need select the columns. If the sides of the mathematical model appear in the same colour as the dots of the physical members before the sides are matched, then they do not need to be matched unless you wish to make changes. 2.5 Support conditions
