The second section then explains the fundamental principles of the finite element calculation and highlights the necessity for consideration of specific elements. Furthermore, the reader is instructed on how to correctly interpret and evaluate these complex results. As this work concerns the stiffening of reinforced concrete components, the material behavior is discussed and adjusted in accordance with both linear and nonlinear behavior.
Subsequently, the project at Friedrichstrasse 14 will be discussed in greater detail. The structure was designed with a skeleton framework and reinforced concrete walls. All horizontal loads are allocated to these and evaluated to ascertain their capacity to withstand the requisite resistance. The behavior of the concrete in terms of tensile stresses is subjected to explicit examination, as is the question of whether design according to the linear static analysis is sufficient.
The results yield a guide that is intended to facilitate the utilization of the Dlubal RFEM 6 software for the design of bracing in six buildings of the same type, thereby ensuring its efficacy.
