requist helping for design and anlysis column pocket foundation

[srmdnadems]

according to the image , I need your help for design and anlysis  column pocket foundation by using robot ? I want to do this by using finite elment with robot , please help me ?

You may try to use the RC Spread footing module of RSA

and how can difide it to finite element please ? it is very important for me , because i need to use robot instead of ansys 16.

[Artur.Kosakowski]

Let me understand what you really need first. How would you design it in Ansys or by hand? What kind of results do you want to obtain? 

[srmdnadems]

I am very sorry for my late response ,

According for the image top, I need to use finite element as this method. 

[Artur.Kosakowski]

In Robot you can also use (e.g. extruded) solids to model a column and a packet foundation however as contact elements are not available you would need to replace them with compression only bar elements.

do you mean I can not divide the column pocket to element as ansys ? whit is the alternative when someone using robot please ?

[Artur.Kosakowski]

If you mean generate mesh for solids then you can. See e.g.:

yes my friend, you now exactly understand me, I need do that and give me ability to apply an axial load on a column with a particular load with eccentricity ?, and find the effect it on the column and the pocket, how can carry out that  with a clear video tutorial please ? 

[srmdnadems]

hi Mr. I am waiting you to response about my inqury, where can find a help information about your video above ? that what I need from you please.

[Artur.Kosakowski]

Could you tell me what have you already defined based on the already provided information and where you get stacked please? 

[srmdnadems]

I have a column in pocket, I have one column which is immersed in a concrete pocket that will determine the dimension later , dimension of column will be 400 mm x 500 mm , then I will apply 300 kNm moment nd 100 kN vertical load on column .With is process, an eccentricity will be generated, I need to anlyse this system by using finite elemint like first below vedio :

So you know how to extrude a column and you should also know how in a similar way create a foundation 

I'm attching a sample model that you may use as a reference.

I have seen your file about pocket foundation , you are impressive me completely , how did you do that please ? your file is what I need , but may I want to change some detail about the dimention, thank you very much, and I need how to do that Mr. Kosakowski ? because the supervisor and the experts may ask me about how to do the , so I need the details please. 

[srmdnadems]

thank you Mr.Kosakowski from my heart , and I need please to know how can you achevie the atached file ? I am waiting and thank you again for the file , you are a great man indeed.
