VERIFICATION EXAMPLES FOR SCADA Pro

Software Verification Examples for SCADA Pro 14 Results Comparison Vertical Displacements and Bending Moments along principal axis of cross section, for each load case, obtained from ScadaPro analysis, are presented in Table A2.3.1 and A2.3.2 respectively as compared with those obtained from Sap2000 and Abaqus software. Table A2.3.1. Comparison of Results for Vertical Displacements of Frame I & III. Vertical Displacement (mm) at ScadaPro Sap2000 Abaqus highest point of inclined beam (node E) 3.27 3.28 3.34 Table A2.3.2. Comparison of Results for Bending Moments of Frame I & III. Bending Moment (kNm) at ScadaPro Sap2000 Abaqus highest point of inlined beams (node E) 13.46 13.46 13.56 ends of inclined beams (nodes B, C) 26.88 26.88 26.77 base of columns (nodes A, D) 1.42 1.42 1.40 Computer Files The project file for this example is “FF3”. These files are provided as part of the ScadaPro installation. Conclusion The result comparison reflects acceptable agreement between ScadaPro software and results obtained from Sap2000 and Abaqus.
