1. Static Calculation: usual structural analysis

For RM Bridge inside OpenBridge Designer, at AnalyzerAnalyzer/Schedule/Stages/Schedule Actions/Static Calculation the users will find the available standard static structural analysis:

• Calc: Calculate static load
• Stress: Activate and calculate internal primary forces of tendons 
• Grout: fill in the ducts of internal tendons and establish composite cross-sections by adhesion 
• TStop: ‘freeze’ creep, shrinkage, and relaxation for given elements 
• Creep: C&S -  Creep, Shrinkage and Relaxation calculation 
• UpdEmod: Temporarily update the young’s modulus for all materials with an Emod(t) 
• CabSag: Manual definition of multiplication factors for virtual young's moduli (Ernst-Moduli E*) for individual cables to take non-linearity due to sagging 
• Infl: Calculate influence lines for given traffic lanes.
• LiveSet: Influence line evaluation for non-linear analysis. A load train position is calculated according to the influence line for the given structure point. The result is a load arrangement of the load train stored into a load set.
• LiveL: Influence line evaluation of a load train moving along a lane. The influence line has to be calculated from lane definitions with the action ++Infl before.
• TempVar Process temperature points (collected by an attribute set) for non-linear temperature loading. A load set is created with this action that represents the temperature load (temperature loading according to AASHTO and BS)
• Buckle: Calculation of buckling eigenmodes and buckling factors for a reference load case.
• Failure: Increase the loadfactor in a given range until buckling of the structure occurs (full geometrically non-linear analysis ).
• ReloadLc/ReloadSup: Cracked concrete - Reload considering cracked tension zones. The internal forces of the given load case are redistributed in the cross sections planes for cracked tension zones.
• ReloadLc/ReloadSup: Cracked concrete - Reload considering cracked tension zones. The internal forces of the given superposition file are redistributed in the cross sections planes for cracked tension zones.
• OpenTcl: Open and run a TCL module from the TCL-Script library.
• RunTcl: Run an existing TCL-script file.
• Restart: Calculates the new constant load case factors for variable load cases from AddConstraints
• Store: Store the calculation for later restart at the label
• PushOver: Non-linear calculation action using a load-stepping procedure
