    1 Abstract

    The target of this project is the calculation and check of the redistribution of bending moment My(moment around the local y-axis). Moment Mz (moment around the local z-axis) is not redistributed.The redistribution means decreasing bending moments above supports and increasing bendingmoments in mid-spans where distribution of moments remains in equilibrium with the applied loads.

    The user can select four methods for the calculation of redistributed bending moment My:

    method according to EN 1992-1-1, clause 5.5, moment resistance (redistributed bending moment = moment of resistance),

    user method.

    After the calculation of redistributed bending moment according to the above-mentioned methods,the user can check the value of redistributed bending moment according to EN 1992-1-1, clause 5.5(4)or 5.6.2(2). The moment can be redistributed, only if:

    a new type of member - continuous beam - is defined,

    additional data for redistribution are defined on continuous beam,

    a combination for redistribution is prepared.

    The following steps for the calculation and check of redistributed bending moment have to beperformed:

    Definition of new type of member - continuous beam (chapter 2)

    Selection of combination or construction stages for which redistribution will be calculated(chapter 3)

    Definition or change of input parameters in concrete setup (chapter 4)

    Definition of additional data for redistribution on continuous beam (type of method, selection ofsupport...), chapter 5

    Calculation of redistributed bending moment for selected member and selected method(chapter 7)

    Check of redistribution bending moment in ULS checks (chapter 8)

    Limitations:

    Supported direction: only bending moment My(around the local y-axis)Supported code: only EN 1992-1-1Supported member: straight continuous beamSupported cross-sections: all cross-sections

    2 Definition of continuous beam

    Bending moment can be redistributed only if continuous beam is defined. Continuous beam can bedefined via item Continuous beam(tree Structure > Model data).

    After clicking on this item the user selects the type of continuous beam:

    standard only one option is available.

    Then the user allocates the existing 1D members (by selection in graphical window) to continuous

    beam. The allocation of 1D members can be changed in the properties of Continuous beam via actionbuttons Select Allocationand Remove inactive entities from allocation.

    Note:

    the continuous beam cannot be copied,

    graphical presentation and label for continuous beam can be set in dialog View parameterssetting > Model > Other model data > Continuous beam.

    3 Combination and construction stages

    The user has to define for which combination or construction stages the redistribution should becalculated.

    3.1 Changes in combinations

    There is a new check box Redistribution of bending momentsin the manager of combinations andin the dialog for editing of combination. This check box is active only for ULS combination and in casethat:

    concrete material is defined in project,

    code EN 1992-1-1 is selected,

    continuous beam is defined in project.

    The check box Redistribution of bending moments can be parameterized via parameter Boolean.

    3.2 Changes in construction stages

    There is a new check box Redistribution of moment in properties of each construction stage. If thischeck box is ON, then:

    the redistributed moment will be calculated for all ULS combinations from the selectedconstruction stage (the check box Redistribution of bending moment in properties of eachULS combination will be ON)

    supports for selected construction stage can be taken into account for redistribution.

    The check box Redistribution of moment can be parameterized via parameter Boolean.

    3.3 Generation of redistributed combination

    A new load case is generated and added to each combination with switching ON check boxRedistribution of bending moment. This load case contains moment reduction in each result-section.Using one of the methods described below, the program calculates moment reduction above support.For the calculation of redistributed bending moments in all sections, the program uses the followingprocedure:

    moment reductions are recalculated in sections (a linear distribution is assumed along the lengthof span),

    loop for all sections in span: run cross-section solver, calculate stress, integrate forces in phasesof cross-sections and the tendons,

    test the material of beams (only concrete + internal tendons in cross-sections can be calculated),

    E modulus increase over time (ageing, E modulus changes, ) is respected in calculations offorces in phases of cross-sections.

    fill in new LC by moment reduction (forces in phases of cross-sections and tendons).

    The load case with moment reduction can be presented in the services Internal forces on beam(treeResults > Beams) and Internal forces(tree Concrete > 1D member), where a new item Load cases -moment reductionis available in combo box Type of loads.

    ForType of loads = Load cases - moment reductiona new combo box Load cases - momentreductionis active with the list of all load cases with moment reduction for all combinations for whichRedistribution of bending moment isON. The name of load case is derived from the name of thesource redistributed combination, for example name of LC for combination F1-MAX is F1-MAX/1. Thenumber behind the name of the combination means the number of the load case, because forenvelope combination several load cases with moment reduction can be generated.

    Basic principles for the generation of redistributed combination are:

    The redistributed combination can be created only for ULS combination depending on the typeof calculation (analysis):

    for TDAand Construction stages analysisthe combinations are generated automatically .Thecheck box Redistribution of bending momentis ON for all ULS combinations inconstruction/serviceability stage in which the check box Redistribution of momentis on.

    for other type of analysis the check box Redistribution of bending momenthas to be switchedON directly by the user in the dialog for the definition of combination.

    for linear combination only one load case with moment reduction is generated

    for envelope combination the following procedure is used

    o the envelope combination is exploded to linear combinations in the background,

    o for the selected member (only a member with redistribution data defined) and envelopecombination the dangerous combinations from linear combinations are created,

    o for each dangerous combination a new load case with moment reduction is created andfilled in,

    o the new created load cases are stored.

    the envelope combination is found from all dangerous combinations with load case momentreduction directly in the current result/concrete service

    the contents of the redistributed combination can be presented only using the Combination key

    if formula is not satisfied, then program gives warning 61 (The member isconsidered to be in compression) and calculation is not ok and the beam shouldbe calculated as a column. The user must switch the type of member to columnmanually

    Calculation of redistributed bending moment according to EN 1992-1-1:

    if formula is satisfied, then redistributed moment may be calculated if formula is not satisfied, then program gives error 851 (The member is not

    predominantly subject to flexure) and redistributed bending moment is notcalculated

    if formula is satisfied, then check is OK if formula is not satisfied, then program gives error 851 (The member is notpredominantly subject to flexure) and check is not ok

    o if check box is OFF, the previous formula is checked only :

    in calculation of redistributed bending moment according to EN 1992-1-1 in check of redistribution according to chapter 5.5(4),

    It is linear elastic analysis with limited redistribution calculated according to EN 1992-1-1, clause 5.5.The moment reduction above support is calculated according to formula

    M = ( 1 - )Mlin

    and it follows that redistributed bending moment is calculated from formula

    Mred= Mlin-M= Mlin- ( 1 - )Mlin= Mlin

    where

    M is moment reduction above support

    Mlin is elastic bending moment from linear analysis

    Mred is redistributed bending moment

    is a ratio of redistributed bending moment to the elastic bending momentcalculated according to formulas 5.10a and 5.10 b in EN 1992-1-1

    the ratio of redistributed bending moment to the elastic bending moment is lower than 1

    if the limitations are not fulfilled, then the moment is not redistributed and the program gives awarning or error

    Note:

    the lowest quality of concrete of all phases of the cross-section is used for calculation of value (values fckand cu2) for calculation of cross-section with more phases

    the value k6 (class A) is used for calculation of value for cross-section with only prestressedreinforcement

    the lowest quality of all reinforcement (k6 for class A) is used for calculation of value for cross-section with different classes of reinforcement

    the depth of neutral axis at the ULS is calculated for redistributed bending moment that iscalculated after second step of iterative calculation, because calculation of redistributed bendingmoment leads to an iterative calculation. Full iteration is not used because the calculation wouldtake a lot of time.

    7.2 Method according to French DTU, clause 3.2.2.5

    For calculation of moment reduction according to French DTU clause 3.2.2.5c is used. Redistribution isestimated on the basis of a localized rotation above the support equal to 0.003 rad. The momentreduction, redistributed towards the neighbouring spans, can be calculated in the 1st approximation as:

    p

    l

    L

    EI

    L

    EIM

    3300075,0

    where

    M is moment reduction above support

    EIl is flexural stiffness of the left span of continuous beam at the support

    Ll is length of the left span of continuous beam at the support (the value ispresented in properties of continuous beam, see chapter 2)

    EIp is flexural stiffness of the right span of continuous beam at the support

    Lp is length of the right span of continuous beam at the support (the value ispresented in properties of continuous beam, see chapter 2)

    For usual floor beam stiffness, this value leads generally to a moment reduction around a 10th of theelastic moment of the neighbouring spans.

    7.3 Method - moment of resistance

    The redistributed bending moment above support equals the moment of resistance of the cross-section. Moment of resistance is determined from the interaction diagram for the method Mu (momentof resistance is calculated as an intersection of parallel line with axis of MRdcrossing the point[NEd;MEd,y;MEd,z] ) and interaction diagram ). The axis MRd is resultant of vectors MRd,yand MRd,z

    Interaction diagram Linear bending moment

    Redistributed bending moment

    Note: The line for calculation of intersection with interaction diagram is parallel with line My in this

    case, because moment Mz is zero.

    The redistributed bending moment and moment reduction are calculated according to procedure below

    Mred= MRd,min(Vu,min) if Mlin(V) < 0 kNmMred= MRd,max(Vu,max) if Mlin(V) 0 kNm

    M = Mlin- Mred

    where

    M is moment reduction above support

    Mlin is elastic bending moment from linear analysis

    Mred is redistributed bending moment

    MRd,min(Vu,min)

    is minimum value of moment of resistance determined from interactiondiagram of the cross-section. The value in brackets is symbol used in theprogram

    MRd,max(Vu,max)

    is maximum value of moment of resistance determined from interactiondiagram of the cross-section. The value in brackets is symbol used in theprogram

    11 Examples

    11.1 Example 1

    Six non-prestressed continuous beams with two spans, with same load, but with different number ofupper bars above support and different method for redistribution of bending moment

    B1: upper bars above support =716, method according to EN 1992-1-1, 5.5(4) B2: upper bars above support =716, method Moment of resistance

    B3: upper bars above support =716, user input, delta Mr= 30kNm

    B4: upper bars above support =616, method according to EN 1992-1-1, 5.5(4)

    B5: upper bars above support =616, method Moment of resistance

    B6: upper bars above support =616, user input, delta Mr= 30kNm

    The redistributed bending moment was calculated for three different methods and for two numbers ofupper bars above support, see table below

    User input (Abs,Delta Mr= 30 kNm) -210,4 (B3) -210,4 (B6)

    Note:

    the method according to EN 1992-1-1, clause 5.5(4)

    o for upper reinforcement 616 the moment was not redistributed (is the same as the linear

    elastic moment) because equilibrium was not found the method Moment of resistance

    o for upper reinforcement 716 redistributed bending moment is bigger than the linearelastic bending moment, therefore this redistribution is not usable

    o support at the end of the member (left side of support is checked, if Mleft 0)

    the User method

    o the redistributed bending moment is independent on reinforcement

    The detailed evaluation will be done only for configurations in the table below
