SRC Design Results

 

 

 

Check the reinforcing information and design results of SRC members by numerical components and contours.

 

 

 

From the Main Menu select Design > SRC Design Result.

 

 

Load Cases/Combinations

 

Select the desired load case, load combination or envelope.

 

Click to the right to enter, add or modify load combinations (refer to Load Cases/Combinations).

 

 

 

Ratio by Components

 

Select the desired component of the design results from the following:

 

Axial: Axial stress ratio component

 

Shear-y : Shear stress ratio component in the direction of the

strong axis

 

Shear-z : Shear stress ratio component in the direction of the weak

axis

 

Bend-y : Bending stress ratio component due to moment about the

strong axis

 

Bend-z : Bending stress ratio component due to moment about the weak axis

 

Combined : Maximum combined stress ratio component

 

 

Type of Display

 

Select the types of displays among Contour, Legend and Values.

 

Contour

Display the design results by contours.

Ranges: Assign the contour ranges.

 

: Assign the coloring ranges for contour lines. The user may assign specific colors for specific ranges.

 

Note
Contour Range Max/Min values can be larger than the max/min output values.  If the Contour Range values exceed the output values, they are entered at Rank 0 and Rank 11.

 

Number of Colors : Assign the number of colors for the contour (select among 6, 12, 18 & 24 colors)
 

Gradient Fill : Display the color gradient (shading) in the contour.
 

Draw Contour Lines : Display the contour lines by colors.
 

Colors : Assign or alter the colors of the contour.

 

Color Tables : Assign the type of Colors.

 

: Control the color of each range in the contour.

 

Reverse Contour: Check on to reverse the sequence of color variation in the

contour.

 

Contour Line : Assign the color for contour boundaries.

 

Element Edge: Assign the color of element edges to appear in the contour.

Legend

Organize and display various references related to analysis results either to the right or left of the working window.

Legend Position: Select the position of the legend in the output window

 

Rank Value Type: Values for Legend (Exponential or fixed values)

Values

Display the selected design result components by means of numerical values.

 

The font and color of the numbers can be controlled in Display Option.

 

Note

When checking the Design Result on the screen, if the design result exceeds the limit value, the text is marked in red color.

Decimal Points: Specify decimal points of the displayed numbers

Exp.: Option to express numerical values in exponents
 

Min & Max: Display the minimum and maximum values

Abs Max: Display the absolute maximum value

Max: Display only the maximum value

Min: Display only the minimum value
 

Limit Scale(%): Set the screen limits for displaying design results relative to the maximum or minimum value

 

Note
The default Decimal Points can be controlled in "Preferences".

 

 

Reinforcement

Reinforcing results are produced. (Refer to Note.)

 

Rebar: Reinforcing bar diameter and spacing

 

Area: Required reinforcing steel area

 

Type of Display: Select the type of displays among Contour, Legend and Values.

 

Column Section Size: Display of column section sizes can be scaled.

 

Value Option: Specify the number of decimal points for displayed values.

 

Note. Display of reinforcement
From the V600 of MIDAS/Gen, reinforcing information such as rebar diameter, rebar spacing and required reinforcing steel area can be checked in 'Concrete / SRC Design Result'.

 

1) Design results of column

 

2) 'Rebar' display of column

 

3) Reinforcing steel 'Area' display of column

 

The following outlines the reinforcing information in Figs. 2) & 3):

 

a. (Uc): Ratio of axial stress of the column (N/(fc' X Ag))

 

b. (As-corner): Number of corner rebars & rebar area

 

Ex.) 4-#7 = 4 X 0.6 = 2.4 in2

 

c & d. (Asy, Asz): Reinforcing on a single side    

 

e. (Asv): Tie (shear) reinforcing spacing of column, Sc       

 

Based on the reinforcing information noted at b, c & d above, the total number of rebars then becomes,

 

b+ ((c - 2) + (d - 2)) X 2 = 4 + ((2 - 2) + (2 - 2)) X 2 = 4

 

The number of rebars on one side (Asz)=2

 

 4-2-#7 (See A in Fig. 1)

 

 

 Output Section Location(Beam)

Check RC member design results by sectional locations. It can be used only when "Values" of "Type of Display" is selected.

 

I, Center, J: Represent the RC beam member's sectional locations. The user can not select the locations. It is automatically selected following the selection of "Max" or "All".

 

Max: Maximum values appear at every RC beam member.

 

All: Values appear at each location of RC beam members.

 

 

 : Apply the displayed rebar information to the selected elements.

 

 : Close the dialog bar.
