Concrete beam settings

In some cases, depend on model configuration, we can get very small values of bending moments and small distances between moment zero points. When such values are used for detection of deep beams and for reduced section lever arm calculation results can be not realistic. For practical calculations such small values can be skipped without losing precision in results.

 

Concrete beam settings

 

To make it possible in Customize tab in Options/Concrete/Beam it is implemented possibility to manage tolerances for deep beam calculations:

  • ignore deep beams if lov is less than: <0.010>
  • detect zero position with tolerance My [kNm]: <1.000>
