punching capacity of slab without shear reinforcement

Hi,

Verification problem 2 - punching capacity of slab without shear reinf. cant get the right results.

In verification problem 1 - everything was ok.

I tried to apply the forces in the node from a node with rigid links to column placement - get get the right results still.

Can u please help me what am I doing wrong?

You have different RC code used in your model. I'm attaching the modified file.

Thank you,

if I understand correctly,

the model was OK, but the code was set to user.

For calculating shear resistance Finnish code SFS-En 1992-1-1 must be used?

 

Thanx again

Correct

 

 but the code was set to user.

 

EN 1992-1-1:2004 AC:2008

You can use different code but in such case the slab punching capacity may be different that the one from the reference example which is calculated for SFS-EN 1992-1-1

Hi I downloaded the Robot model which Artur provided and tried to run it on my machine but I get a different punching shear result,  as shown below. It appears that the deadload from the slab (4mx4mx0.24x24.5 = 94kN) is being added to the 192kN point load. Why is the punching now calculated for 286kN? Is the rigid membrane still working correctly? I have attached the Robot model.

I think my problem above may be an example of ROBOT seeming to remember previoulsy calculated values and when you think you have re-run the design, you haven't and ROBOT is just presenting the values it previously calculated! 

 

Whenever I am trying to learn something new in ROBOT this becomes an annoying problem.  I find that to resolve it you need to play around with the model (i.e change some input, re-run the anlysis and then change the input back to original and then re-run).  

 

Is there any way to "purge " previous results, so ROBOT stops showing old values as results?

 

Regards,

Jon

Try to select save without results file type and give the file a new name.

 

BTW: Does the following complain sound familiar?  "I have calculated all my project and now I want to make small change to a tiny part of it but I don't want to lose my results that are not going to be influenced by this change" Smiley Wink
