Design of core wall by using robot

[Anonymous]

Kindly, I need the methodolgy of using robot for design of core wall

Assuming you want to calculate reinforcement there are two options:

1. Use RC Panels Reinforcement module

2. Use RC Wall reinforcement module (currently available codes are BAEL, EC2 and ACI).

Is shear wall design for EC2 now enabled in Robot?

[Artur.Kosakowski]

Yes, it is for French NAD.

Hello Artur

"Assuming you want to calculate reinforcement there are two options:

   - How will I view the reinforcement maps for the walls?

1. Use RC Panels Reinforcement module

   - How will I view the reinforcement maps for the walls?

The same as for panels \ slabs required reinforcement module \ maps.

I think I might have asked this question before, but does one  group the core walls by stories or is the core wall group the whole stack (i.e. over multiplie stories)?

[Rafal.Gaweda]

As far as I understood you correctly - define core walls as a whole stack (but each wall not as a one panel - several panels from story to story level)

Thanks, If I understand correctly, the core wall is defined by selecting all the panels making up the core wall (eg. C-, or L- shaped) over multiple levels and defining all these as 1 core wall

Exactly !

Hi,

there I intent to use ROBOT result to deign core wall manually.

my question:

about the value of the moment WMX &WMY based in which coordinate should be considered.

OR shall I considered big value for major axis for the wall?

as I got some un explanation value

Hi,
Is there a way in robot to provide reinforcement for a whole corewall, not for each wall of it separately?

No, there is no such option in Robot.

Hi @Anonymous

about the value of the moment WMX &WMY based in which coordinate should be considered.

The results for core walls are in the global coordinate system.

Hello!

ROBOT isn't giving me reactions for this core wall. It is the only core wall group where there's no result shown.

HI @DaneRei.Abranilla 

Share zipped model for verification.

Hello!

I think this has been resolved. What I did was attach the core wall to the slab above by reducing the opening size so there's a very slim wall pier connecting the two.
