SAP2000 Tutorials - CE463 - Lab3

This document discusses three structural analysis examples modeled in SAP2000: 1) A steel truss with various member releases analyzed under different load cases. 2) A concrete beam analyzed under various load combinations including dead, live, and factored loads. 3) Additional truss examples with different load cases. The document instructs to analyze internal forces, deflections, and moment diagrams for each example.

Top and Bottom chord section double tee 2L5x5x7/16 Braces section rectangular 7x25 mm2, New features: Edit Divide, Releases - Run three analyses, perfect welding in all joints, hinges in all joints, only braces are hinged. - Compare the three cases - What is the maximum deflexion in each case? - What are the maximum internal forces in these cases? Select elements, Assign > Frame > Releases/Partial Fixity

2. Load Combination
Dead Load = WD = 10 kN/m and PD = 60kN Live Load = L1 = 15 kN/m Live Load = L2 = 15 kN/m Units kN, m, C Material Concrete 2 Section 300x650mm Self-Weight included in Dead Load WD PD

New features: Load Combination, Tabular Output. Consider the following combinations: 1.4 D 1.25 D + 1.5 L1 1.25 D + 1.5 L2 1.25 D + 1.5 (L1 + L2) 0.9 D + 1.5 L1 0.9 D + 1.5 L2 0.9 D + 1.5 (L1 + L2) - Which one gives the Maximum Positive Moment and which one gives the Maximum Negative Moment? - Why do you think it is important to consider the combination 0.9 L since it is smaller than 1.5 L? - Plot the envelope for these seven combinations. 3. Additional Examples Another detailed Truss http://www.ce.memphis.edu/7111/projects/SAP_2000/SAP_2000_trusses.html

Plot moment diagram for each case alone, for a unit linear combination of all and finally an envelope of the linear combination.
