I'm doing stress analysis for a proposed concrete framed building in Qatar which has several movement joints, and I'm wondering what temperature variation to model. should this be min peak to max peak, min average to max average ? there are also max sun radiation temperatures published which are 84 degrees C (183 degree F) !!! I was thinking of designing for a 40 degree C range (104 degree F)... does this sound about right ?
