GENTLEMEN:
THERE IS CONCRETE WALL PLANTED ON CONCRETE BEAM IN ONE OF THE MODELING I AM DOING NOW. I HAVE NOTICED THAT THE MOMENT ON THE BEAM SUPPORTING THE WALL IS SMALL VALUE AND NOT PARABOLIC.SHAPE.
I TRIED ONCE AGAIN ON A PLANE WALL ( ON 2D) AND I FACED THE SAME PROBLEM. WHEN I INCREASE THE I33 FACTOR OF THE BEAM THE MOMENT SHAPE WILL BE BETTER BUT STILL NOT CORRECT. AND I AM A WORRY THAT THE INCREASE OF THE BEAM STIFFENER MAY AFFECT THEN RESULTS OF THE 3D MODEL.
I NEED YOUR ADVISE PLEASE.
