Thank you all for the assistance.

guys i need you help again, i need to do Non-linear simulation of plate model of Beam, regarding limited tensile strength of concrete and concrete cracking.

hello guys thanks alot for your replies it waa a great help, @BAretrued; so in case of nonlinearity what will be the method for calculating moment from stess?? thanks

Reference point or reference axis? i mean refernce point means from center or top or bottom but when u say reference axis i am kinna confuse because which axis i need to take i already know but for that lever arm for example if ai am checking moment at the bottom of beam then does it means my...

okay one question, what will be my lever arm in this plate case? i mean for example i am checking stress box close to bottom for +ve moment then is my Y is from center of that particular box to bottom or from the centroid of the beam?

1) the loads are verticle not axial, 2) division of section means meshing? that i have already done as am doing FEM 3) finding stress on each little area means, meshing again? okay i have stress in every square, 4) Reference axis?, considering that this plate model is for beam therefore by...

this is the plate model of a beam incorporating connection where we have interaction of different materials like, column, beam, screed, and reinforcement at connection and we need to study the moment occuring at this point of -ve moment when we define all properties respectively and compare this...

Hallo everyone, I have run Beam as 2D plate on SAP2000, and have got the output as attached file. which gives me stress but i need to calculate the amount of moment at peak points so how can i calculate Moment from this stress at the point? Regards...

Yes ofc its FEM,

thanks BUGGAR, could u explain what do u mean by small? do u mean instead of taking the whole length of beam i could just take half of it? is that what you mean? Thanks for your reply,

well, i didnt post the detail because i thought its irrelevent, but as you asked so here is the detail :) attach is a file that shows section, now its a section of connection in Precast structure, and i need to make this section with full length of beam as aa 2d plate and check the -ve moments...

hello friends, i have a question, i have to do 2d plate analysis for contineous beam, for which i am looking for following information, 1) could any one suggest me good reading material regarding 2d plates? more specifically for beams if possible, 2) does the third dimension in case of beam 2d...
