8B. ANALYSIS PART 2

CHAPTER 8B 'ANALYSIS' 128 In SCADA θy or dy is 0. What is shown is : It has no sloping anionic elastic branch so θy=dy=0 but you do NOT show the value of θu or du on the diagram. It was preferred to show, for better overview, the boundaries of the B and C performance stations. OBSERVATION: Note that the printout now includes (for concrete & M.I.P.) ONLY those elements that have developed a plastic joint at one or both ends up to the step corresponding to performance level C. That is, those which in all steps do NOT develop a plastic joint at any of their ends and those which do, but at a step larger than the step corresponding to the C level of performance are NOT printed. OBSERVATION: For M.I.P.: If the indication is "No" the fact that the ratio is <1. The reason is that its indication in 3D is a red square which means that it failed in tension. This is the reason why there is no number under "No" indicating the type of failure.
