slab support

[saclovitzky]

Hello,

I have a one-way slab supported at both ends.

One support side needs to partially run to a 400x400 RC Col,it means that the slab needs  a cut-out to accommodate the rc column.

In this regard, EQA is needed(150x15) to partially support the slab via the rc column.

If I allow RSAP to run the analysis, the angle support is attracting so much load. Is there any releases to divert the loads and just simply move towards its sides(so that it is properly transferred to the supports just beside it.)

Pls. see attached screenshot and file. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Hi @saclovitzky

You can use a linear release:

Thanks Artur but where did you get the elastic coefficient = 100, what does it mean?

Hi @saclovitzky

I just indicated the kind of the release you asked for. The value is just 'any' as I have no knowledge of your structure.
