Static loading
Longitudinal Force from Live Load (BK): Longitudinal force component due to horizontal live load Wind Load on Live Load (WL): Wind load acting simultaneously with the traffic live load Ground Water Pressure (WP) : Hydraulic or water pressure The unit load case types are as follows: Note that the names of the unit load cases listed below can differ from the notation given in the codes. Select the relevant load case from the load cases list at the bottom of the dialog box and click. When deleting previously defined load cases Select the relevant load case from the load cases list at the bottom of the dialog box, then modify the entries and click. Type: Select the load type from the list of static unit load cases.ĭescription: Enter a short description of the load case. The analysis results can be checked for separate load cases automatically assigned to the construction stage analysis results. The above load cases are used to check the input in the preprocessing mode and combined in the Construction Load during the analysis. Wet Concrete: The weight of Wet Concrete when FCM or MSS/FSM Wizard is used Self Weight: Self weight of elements used in Construction Stage AnalysisįT: Self weight of Form Traveler when FCM Wizard is used The Load Type of each individual load is automatically defined as Construction Stage Load. When Bridge Wizard is used to analyze the construction stage of a bridge structure, the following static load cases are automatically generated based on the characteristics of the loads used. When defining or adding new static load cases The messages generated in the process of analysis are automatically compiled in the 'fn.out' file.įrom the Main Menu Select Load > Static Load > Static Load Cases.Ĭlick to the right of the Load Case Name field in the dialog boxes of various functions purposed to specify static loads to define or modify static unit load conditions. Upon completing the analysis successfully, use the various post-processing functions of the Results menu in conjunction with load cases and combinations to analyze the analysis results. Messages indicating the progress or the completion of analysis will appear in the message window at the bottom of the screen.ħ. Select the Analysis> Perform Analysis menu or click Perform Analysis to carry out the analysis.Ħ. If the analysis is to reflect the P-Delta effect, use the Analysis> P-Delta Analysis Control menu to specify the number of repetitions and permitted tolerance for convergence followed by entering the load cases and factors applied to formulate the geometric stiffness matrix.ĥ. Using the Analysis> Main Control Data menu, input the number of repetitions and permitted tolerance for convergence.Ĥ. If geometric nonlinear elements are included in the analysis model, create load cases based on the previously created load combinations through Load> Create Load Cases Using Load Combinations. Enter the loads using the various static load input functions of Load Menu.ģ. Enter the load cases using the Load>Static Load Cases menu.Ģ. The procedure for carrying out a static analysis using midas Civil is as follows:ġ. When Bridge Wizard is used to analyze the construction stage of a bridge structure, static loads are automatically generated based on the characteristics of loads. Apply this feature to assign the load cases necessary to form the geometric stiffness matrix in the P-Delta or buckling analysis. The analysis results can be interactively combined in " Combinations". Static analysis is carried out for each static load case entered by this function. Define static load cases, or modify or delete previously defined load cases.
