4 Modeling Statement

Cable-stayed bridges are structur

al systems effectively composing
cables, main girders and towers
.
This bridge form has a beautiful
appearance and easily fits in with
the surrounding environment due
to the fact that various structural
systems can be created by changi
ng the tower shapes and cable ar
rangements.

There are a few ways to model your structure:
1. Nodes and Elements
2. Importing .dxf file

3. Bridge Wizards

MIDASIT
Step

18
IN IMPORTING .DXF FILES
• Polyline in .dxf file will be imported as a beam element
• Surface in .dxf file will be imported as a plate element
• Solid can not be imported
• The length unit must be identical with the unit used in AutoCAD.

MIDASIT
Step

19
IN USING BRIDGE WIZARDS:
• Material and Section Properties must be defined first.
• You may use predefined wizards for repetitive project specifications
• Here are the available bridge wizards:
• Base Structures
• Suspension Bridge
• Cable Stayed Bridge
• Incremental Launching Method Bridge
• Free Cantilever Method Bridge
• Movable Scaffolding System Bridge
• Full Staging Method Bridge
• Transverse Model
• Grillage Model
• RC Slab Bridge
• RC Frame/Box Culvert
• Steel Composite Bridge
• Prestressed Composite Bridge
• PSC Bridge
• Composite Bridge
• Steel Girder Bridge
• Rail Track Analysis Model
