Morning All,
Apologies for the probably basic questions which follow. I'm learning as I go along. I have a few problems when trying to run reinforcement analysis:
1) Referring to screenshot, the bottom of the stairs simply provides a small amount of dead weight on the garage slab. They are cast seperately. I've provided a linear edge pin at the stair slab base where it touches down on the garage slab. However the RC slab analysis is still quoting a huge 2156mm^2 reinforcement requirement. Any idea what I've done wrong?
2) in the reinforcement results, I can't see all the text in the remarks column, theres no way to stretch the column wide enough to read the text?
3) on some 300x600 RC columns I have no errors but warning remarks. ... represents the chopped off text "...ternal calculation nodes. The calculations of reinforcement may be incorrect". I've got no idea what the warning is going on about or how to fix it. Any ideas? If it's (I'm guessing) a clash between RC wall/slabs FE mesh nodes and RC columns is there a way of fixing this fairly painlessly?
4) when running calculation, I get a warning "required types are not ascribed to SLS combinations". However I have set up serviceability and ULS load combinations. I've attached my model in case someone can spot what I've missed.
5) I also have a spike in reinforcement of approx 1500mm^2 in the left hand corner where the garage roof slab meets the front central wall. Is there any way of releasing this corner? In practise there wont be a moment connection at the corner, the reinforcement will be lapped at the flat faces only.
Many thanks, any feedback is greatly appreciated. Robot model is attached here:
