Inquiry about Robot Structural Analysis for Precast Concrete Design

[husam_al-jawhar]

Hi all,

I am planning to design a precast concrete structure and am interested in using Robot Structural Analysis for the project.

Could you please clarify Robot's capabilities for analyzing and designing precast concrete elements?

Specifically, I'd like to know:

Can Robot handle the specific considerations of precast concrete members, such as connections?
Are there any limitations to using Robot for precast concrete design compared to cast-in-place structures?
Are there any additional resources available, such as tutorials or documentation, for using Robot with precast concrete?
Thank you for your time and assistance.

Hi @husam_al-jawhar,

However, Robot was used in the Total Precast Concrete High-Rise Building Design Example (https://www.cpci.ca/en/resources/hrb_free/)  by Canadian Precast Prestressed Concrete Institute
