Definition of the parametric rib plate

A parametric rib plate can be defined exclusively using Matrix Frame ProductTable, by selecting the Shape property as:
 

 

  • Multi rib plate

    A list of the parameters required for the definition of a Multi rib plate is defined as follows:

    Simplification of the Multi rib plate input definition can be achieved by neglecting the parameters indicated in the figure above. 
     

    Note: The effective flange width is considered in accordance with NEN-EN 1992-1-1#5.3.2.1 only when the floor element cross-section is defined as a Multi rib plate.

     

  • T-rib

    A list of parameters for defining a T-rib plate is defined as follows:
