Grillage Modeling: Proportions & Arrangements
For any grillage modeling, there are two fundamental aspects to be taken into account: Proportions & Arrangements
Proportions : The element's lengths of the grillage should be similar, i.e., the longitudinal and transversal girders' distances should…
Lane Load Details Window Worst Roadway
I am using a floating lane layout on a simple span 5 steel girder bridge.
Once I run the analysis I want to verify that all Roadways are being considered.
I am using the "Lane Load Details" window to check this. However, when selecting the "Mz…
Modeler Axes
In RM Bridge at the Modeler component the Axie elements usually represent the Axis of a road alignment; but, in more geometrically complex models, an Axis could also be the transversal support lines or any other local reference axis that is needed. One…
RM Bridge: Modeler axis FAQ: Complex transversal supports or girders
RM Bridge allows users to model any complex transversal supports or diaphragm thru the use of several Modeler axes. As usual, each Axis will create the necessary elements to compose the grillage; though, the user can easily make it more versatile using…
