VERiFiCATiON MANUAL | SOFiSTiK 2014 Contents Introduction SOFiSTiK 2014 | VERiFiCATiON MANUAL 1 About this Manual 1 About this Manual The primary objective of this manual is to verify the capabilities of SOFiSTiK by means of nontrivial problems which are bound to reference solutions. To this end, this manual contains a compilation of a number of selected computational benchmarks, each benchmark focusing on a specific (mechanical) topic. The obtained results from the SOFiSTiK analysis are contrasted with corresponding reference solutions 1 . The tasks covered by SOFiSTiK, address a broad scope of engineering applications and it is therefore not possible to validate all specific features with known reference solutions in terms of this Verification Manual. An attempt has been made though, to include most significant features of the software with re- spect to common problems of general static and dynamic analysis of structures (cf. Part II, Benchmarks Examples). Design examples, treating Design Code related tasks, are provided in Part III of this Verification Manual. 1.1 Layout and Organization of a Benchmark For the description of each Benchmark, a standard format is employed, where the following topics are always treated: • Problem Description • Reference Solution • Model and Results • Conclusion • Literature First, the problem description is given, where the target of the benchmark is stated, followed by the reference solution, where usually a closed-form analytical solution is presented, when available. The next section is the description of the model, where its properties, the loading configuration, the analysis method and assumptions, further information on the finite element model, are presented in detail. Finally, the results are discussed and evaluated with respect to the reference solution and a final conclusion for the response of the software to the specific problem is drawn. Last but not least, the textbooks and references used for the verification examples are listed, which are usually well known and come from widely acclaimed engineering literature sources. 1.2 Finding the Benchmark of interest There are several ways of locating a Benchmark that is of interest for the user. For each example a description table is provided in the beginning of the document, where all corresponding categories, that are treated by the specific benchmark, are tabulated, as well as the name of the corresponding input file. Such a description table with some example entries, follows next. 1 Where available, analytical solutions serve as reference. Where this is not feasible, numerical or empirical solutions are referred to. In any case, the origin of the reference solution is explicitly stated. SOFiSTiK 2014 | VERiFiCATiON MANUAL 3 About this Manual Overview Element Type(s): C2D Analysis Type(s): STAT, MNL Procedure(s): LSTP Topic(s): SOIL Module(s): TALPA Input file(s): passive earth pressure.dat As it can be seen, the available categories are the element type, the analysis type, the procedure, the topics and the modules. For each category that is provided in the description table, a hyperlink is created, linking each example to the global categories tables. In this manner, the user has a direct overview of the attributes involved in each problem, and at the same time is able to browse by category through the Verification Manual focusing only on the one of his interest. Table 1.1 provides an overview of all the categories options that are available.

It is currently used by more than 10000 customers worldwide. SOFiSTiK is a multipurpose tool with extensive capabilities which fall into a wide spectrum of engineering analyses such as static and dynamic structural analysis, modal and buckling eigenvalue problems, nonlinearities and higher order effects, geotechnics and tunnel analysis, heat transfer and fire analysis, as well as numerous types of other applications. 3.1.2 Innovation and Reliability As a provider of cutting-edge engineering software, confidence in robustness and reliability of the prod- uct is an issue of outstanding relevance for SOFiSTiK. To some degree, however, innovation and reliabil- ity are conflicting targets, since every change introduces new possible sources of uncertainty and error. To meet both demands on a sustainable basis, SOFiSTiK has installed a comprehensive quality assur- ance system. The involved organizational procedures and instruments are documented in the following Sections. 3.2 Organisation 3.2.1 Software Release Schedule The SOFiSTiK software release schedule is characterized by a two-year major release cycle. The first customer shipment (FCS) of a SOFiSTiK major release is preceded by an extensive BETA testing period. In this phase - after having passed all internal test procedures (Section 3.2.4: Software Release Procedure) - the new product is adopted for authentic engineering projects both by SOFiSTiK and by selected customers. For a two-year transition period, subsequent major releases are fully supported in parallel, as shown in Fig. 3.1. 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 BETA FCS SOFiSTiK 2010 Start of Transition Phase Discontinuation of Maintenance BETA SOFiSTiK 2012 BETA SOFiSTiK 2014 Figure 3.1: SOFiSTiK Release Schedule The major release cycle is supplemented by a two-month service pack cycle. Service packs are quality assured, which means they have passed both the continuous testing procedures and the functional tests (Section 3.2.2: SQA Modules - Classification). They are available for download via the SOFiSTiK update tool SONAR. Software updates for the current version (service packs) include bug-fixes and minor new features only; major new developments with increased potential regarding side- effects are reserved for major releases SOFiSTiK 2014 | VERiFiCATiON MANUAL 13 SOFiSTiK SQA Policy with an obligatory extensive testing period. 3.2.2 SQA Modules - Classification Figure 3.2 depicts the ”three pillars” of the SOFiSTiK SQA procedure. Preventive and analytic provisions can be differentiated. Preventive provisions essentially concern the organization of the development process. They aim at minimizing human errors by a high degree of automatism and by avoiding error-prone stress situations. These provisions comprise: • A thoroughly planned feature map and release schedule. • Strict phase differentiation: Prior to any software release (also for service packs), the development phase is followed up by a consolidation phase . This phase is characterized by extensive functional testing. No new features are implemented, only test feedback is incorporated. For major releases, an additional BETA test phase is scheduled. • Fully automated build and publishing mechanisms. Analytic provisions provide for the actual testing of the software products. Continuous Testing directly accompanies the development process: Automated and modular regression tests assure feedback at a very early stage of the development (Section 3.3.3: Continuous Testing). Functional Testing is carried out in particular during the consolidation phases. These tests essentially involve manual testing; they focus on comprehensive workflow tests and product oriented semantic tests. SQA (Software Quality Assurance) Development Process Phase differentiation, build- and publishing mechanism Organizational Provision (preventive) Continuous Testing Automated, modular and continuous regression testing Instruments (analytic) Functional Testing Focus: workflow tests, product oriented semantic tests Figure 3.2: SQA Modules 3.2.3 Responsibilities The consistent implementation of quality assurance procedures is responsibly coordinated by the man- aging board executive for products. The development divisions are in authority for: • The establishment, maintenance and checking of continuous testing procedures. • The implementation of corresponding feedback. 14 VERiFiCATiON MANUAL | SOFiSTiK 2014 SOFiSTiK SQA Policy The product management is responsible for: • The coordination and execution of functional testing. • The integration of customer feedback into the QA process. As a corporate activity is carried out: • Continuous review of processes. • The identification of supplemental objectives. • Identification and implementation of possible optimizations.

Approval of individual products is accomplished by the respective person in charge; the overall approval is in authority of the managing board executive for products.

Detailed feedback to the customer is provided via this system. Possible bug fixes or enhancements of the software are documented with version number and date in corresponding log files. These log files are published via RSS-feed to our customers. In this way, announcement of available software updates (service-pack or hotfix) is featured proactively. Moreover, information is provided independent of and prior to the actual software update procedure. Further sources of information are the electronic newsletter/ newsfeeds and the internet forum (www.sofistik.de / www.sofistik.com). 3.3.2 Tracking System (internal) For SOFiSTiK-internal management and coordination of the software development process - both re- garding implementation of features and the fixing of detected bugs - a web-based tracking system is adopted. 3.3.3 Continuous Integration – Continuous Testing As mentioned above, the production chain is characterized by a high degree of automation. An important concern is the realization of prompt feedback cycles featuring an immediate response regarding quality of the current development state. 16 VERiFiCATiON MANUAL | SOFiSTiK 2014 SOFiSTiK SQA Policy Automated Continuous Integration procedure Automated Continuous Testing procedure Development/ PM Assessing feedback Committing modifications Figure 3.5: Feedback cycle: Continuous Integration – Continuous Testing Continuous integration denotes the automated process, assuring that all executed and committed mod- ifications of the program’s code basis are directly integrated via rebuild into the internal testing environ- ment. Upon completion of the integration, the continuous testing procedure is triggered automatically. This procedure executes a standardized testing scenario using the newly updated software. Test results are prepared in form of compact test protocols allowing for quick assessment. The executed tests are so-called regression tests. Regression tests examine by means of associated reference solutions wether the conducted modifications of the code basis cause undesired performance in other already tested parts of the program. Together, continuous integration and continuous testing form the basis for a quality control that directly accompanies the development process. This way, possibly required corrections can be initiated prompt- ly. SOFiSTiK has successfully implemented this procedure. Currently, the continuous test database comprises more than 3000 tests. 3.4 Additional Provisions 3.4.1 Training As a special service to our customers, SOFiSTiK provides for comprehensive and individually tailored training to support a qualified and responsible use of the software. This is complemented by offering a variety of thematic workshops which are dedicated to specific engineering topics. It is the credo of SOFiSTiK that a high-quality product can only be created and maintained by highly qual- ified personnel. Continuing education of the staff members is required by SOFiSTiK and it is supported by an education program which involves both in- house trainings and provisions of external trainings on a regular basis.

Determine the vertical deflection at the free node 8. P P P Figure 4.1: Problem Description 4.2 Reference Solution The problem of determining the displacements of trusses can be treated in various ways. Popular among engineers, is to apply energy methods, e.g. the method of virtual work or Castigliano’s theorem, to solve problems involving slope and deflection, that are based on the conservation of energy principle, and are more suitable for structures with complicated geometry such as trusses. Further information on this topic can be found in numerous engineering books, dealing with structural analysis [1]. 4.3 Model and Results The general properties of the model [2] are defined in Table 4.1. The total width of the truss is 60 ƒ t, consisting of four spaces of 15 ƒ t each, and the total height is 15 ƒ t. The load is applied equally at the three free nodes at the bottom of the truss. The results are presented in Table 4.2 and compared to the reference example [2]. Fig. 4.2 shows the deflections and the deformed shape of the structure.

Each coupling condition is tested on a pair of beams coupled with each other through structural points, as shown in Fig. 5.1. Four different cases are considered and the deflections of the beams are determined and compared to the analytical solution. A A Figure 5.1: Problem Description 5.2 Reference Solution In this example the problem of coupling structural points is treated. Through the definition of kinematic coupling conditions between structural points the constraint of one or multiple degrees of freedom is allowed. The displacement values of the given structural point A are defined according to the respective displacement values of the referenced (or master-) node A. Various cases are possible in SOFiSTiK for the coupling conditions. With the exception of the three conditions KPX, KPY and KPZ, which only couple the corresponding displacement. e.g.   =  o , all other coupling conditions satisfy the mechanical equilibrium conditions by taking the real distances between the two connected points into account, e.g. the conditions KPPX, KPPY, KPPZ correspond to the following expressions respectively [3] [4]:   =  o + ϕ yo (z − z o ) − ϕ zo (y − y o ) (5.1) SOFiSTiK 2014 | VERiFiCATiON MANUAL 23 BE2: Kinematic Coupling Conditions  y =  yo + ϕ zo ( −  o ) − ϕ o (z − z o ) (5.2)  z =  zo + ϕ o (y − y o ) − ϕ yo ( −  o ) (5.3) Mechanically they act like infinitely stiff structural members. A number of additional literals are provided in SOFiSTiK which allow to define a combination of coupling relations. For example, a rigid connection with hinged conditions at the reference node is described by KP = KPPX + KPPY + KPPZ (5.4) whereas KF = KP + KMX + KMY + KMZ = KPPX + KPPY + KPPZ + KMX + KMY + KMZ (5.5) describes mechanically a rigid connection with clamped support at the reference node. Further informa- tion on the topic are provided in SOFiSTiK manual of module SOFiMSHC [3]. 5.3 Model and Results The general properties of the model are defined in Table 5.1. All beams are of 4 m length and consist of a standard rectangular cross-section and a standard concrete material. The structural points A and A have a distance of 2 m in the axial direction. Four coupling conditions are considered : • KPPX, where only the displacement in the global x direction is connected • LPX, where only the displacement in the structural point’s local x direction is connected • KP, where the displacements in x, y and z direction are connected • KF, where the displacements and the rotations in x, y and z direction are connected All cases are tested for four loadcases, i.e. a horizontal P y , a longitudinal P  , a vertical P z and a rotational M  .

If for example, we consider a coupling of only the displacement in the y direction, then a rotation of ϕ z = 3 y / (2 bem ) will also result as the effect of a prescribed displacement of value  y at the beam tip A .

Determine the maximum bending stress σ in the middle portion of the beam and the deflection δ at the middle of the beam. q q | ←−  −→| | ←−  −→| ←−  −→ Figure 6.1: Beam structure 6.2 Reference Solution The magnitude of the stresses at a cross-section is defined by the magnitude of the shearing force and bending moment at that cross-section. Under pure bending, the maximum tensile and compressive stresses occur in the outermost fibers. For any cross-section, which has its centroid at the middle of the depth h, and for a linear elastic material behaviour, the maximum stresses occur for z = ±h/ 2 [5]: σ m = Mh 2 and σ mn = − Mh 2 , (6.1) in which , is the moment of inertia of the cross-section with respect to the neutral axis and Mthe bending moment. For a beam overhanging equally at both supports with a uniformly distributed load applied at the overhangs (Fig. 6.1), assuming Bernoulli beam theory, the deflection at the middle of the beam is: δ = q 2  2 16E = M 2 8E , (6.2) where q is the value of the uniformly distributed load,  the length of the overhangs,  the length of the middle span and M the bending moment at the middle of the beam. SOFiSTiK 2014 | VERiFiCATiON MANUAL 29 BE3: Beam Stresses and Deflections 6.3 Model and Results The model is analysed for two different cross-sections, a rectangular and a general I-beamcross-section. The properties are defined in Table 6.1. The results are presented in Table 6.2. As to be expected, the analysis yields the same results for the maximum bending stress and deflection at the middle of the beam for the two models. Figure 6.2 shows the distribution of the stresses along the cross-sections for the two analysed examples. Figure 6.3 shows the deformed structure with the nodal displacements.

Determine the maximum deflection δ m , the slope θ at the left-hand end and the maximum bending moment M m . In addition, compare these three quantities for the case of the unstiffned tie rod (N = 0). | ←−  −→| N N P Figure 7.1: Tie Rod 7.2 Reference Solution The combination of direct axial force and lateral load applied at a beam influences the reaction of the structure. Assuming that the lateral force acts in one of the principal planes of the beam and that the axial force is centrally applied by two equal and opposite forces, the expressions for the deflections can be derived from the differential equations of the deflection curve of the beam [6]. Under tension, the maximum deflections of a laterally loaded beam decrease whereas under compression they increase. The moments of the structure are influenced accordingly. For the simple problem of a beam with hinged ends, loaded by a single force P at the middle, the maximum deflection at the middle is: δ m = P 3 48E , (7.1) where  is the lenght of the beam and E its flexural rigidity. The slope θ at both ends is: θ = ± P 2 16E . (7.2) SOFiSTiK 2014 | VERiFiCATiON MANUAL 33 BE4: Tie Rod with Lateral Loading The maximum value of the bending moment at the middle is: M m = P 4 . (7.3) When now the structure (Fig. 7.1) is submitted to the action of tensile forces N in addition to the initial lateral load P, the deflection at the middle becomes [6]: δ m = P 3 48E ·  − tanh  1 3  3 , (7.4) where  2 = N 2 / 4E. The first factor in Eq. (7.4) represents the deflection produced by the lateral load P acting alone. The second factor indicates in what proportion the deflection produced by P is magnified by the axial tensile force N, respectively. When N is small, it approaches unity, which indicates that under this condition the effect on the deflection of the axial force is negligible. The expressions for the moment and the slopes can be derived accordingly [6]. 7.3 Model and Results The properties of the model are defined in Table 7.1 and the results are presented in Table 7.2. Fig. 7.2 shows the deformed structure under tension and lateral loading.

The case of a tie rod is examined and the maximum deflections and moment are derived. It has been shown that the behaviour of a beam under the combination of direct axial force and lateral load can be adequately captured. 7.5 Literature [6] S. Timoshenko.

M z M z z  y h 2 h 1 | ←−  −→| Figure 8.1: Model Properties 8.2 Reference Solution According to the discussion in Benchmark Example no. 3, it follows that the maximum tensile and compressive stresses in a beam in pure bending are proportional to the distances of the most remote fibers from the neutral axis of the cross-section. When the centroid of the cross-section is not at the middle of the depth, as, for instance, in the case of a T-beam, let h 1 and h 2 denote the distances from the neutral axis to the outermost fibers in the downward and upward directions (Fig. 8.1) respectively. Then for a bending moment M z , we obtain the maximum tensile and compressive stresses [5]: σ m = M z h 1  z and σ mn = − M z h 2  z . (8.1) 8.3 Model and Results The properties of the model are defined in Table 8.1. Distances from the centroid to the top and bottom of the beam are calculated as 14 cm and 6 cm respectively.

Determine the angle of twist ϕ at the midspan. | ←−  −→| m T Figure 9.1: An I-bar with Uniformly Distributed Torque 9.2 Reference Solution In mechanics, torsion is the twisting of a structure due to an applied torque. There are two types of torsion: St. Venant torsion and warping torsion. St. Venant torsion exists always when an element is twisted, whereas the warping torsion occurs additionally under specific conditions. The warping of a section depends on the section geometry which means that there exist warping-free, such as circular, and warping-restrained sections. St. Venant torsion is based on the assumption that either the cross- section is warping-free or that the warping is not constrained. If at least one of these conditions is not met then the warping torsion appears [6]. y z ϕ T Figure 9.2: Circular Shaft A member undergoing torsion will rotate about its shear center through an angle of ϕ. Consider a circular shaft that is attached to a fixed support at one end. If a torque T is applied to the other end, the shaft SOFiSTiK 2014 | VERiFiCATiON MANUAL 39 BE6: Warping Torsion Bar will twist, with its free end rotating through an angle ϕ called the angle of twist [8]: ϕ = TL G T , (9.1) where G is the shear modulus and  T the torsional moment of inertia. For a circular shaft subjected to torsion, each cross-section rotates along the shaft as a solid rigid slab (warping-free cross-section). The torsional moment resisted by the cross-section is: T = G T dϕ d , (9.2) For most cross-sections, e.g. non-circular, this rotation of the cross-section is accompanied by warping. Then the total torsional moment resisted by the cross-section becomes the sum of the pure torsion and warping torsion [9]. The stresses induced on the member is then classified into three categories: torsional shear stress, warping shear stress and warping normal stress. For example, when a bar of an I-cross-section is subjected to torsion, then the flanges of the cross-section experience bending in the flange planes. This means that torsion induces bending about the strong axis of the flanges. When the tendency for the cross-section to warp freely is prevented or restrained, it causes stresses to develop. The torque that the cross-section carries by bending is: T = EC M d 3 ϕ d 3 (9.3) where EC M , is the warping torsion stiffness. Furthermore, in warping torsion theory the bimoment is defined as an auxiliary quantity. The objective is to introduce a degree of freedom for beam elements that represents the torque due to restrained warping. The bimoment M ω is defined as: M ω = EC M d 2 ϕ d 2 (9.4) It should be noted, that the bimoment itself is not measurable, however it serves as a convenient param- eter to quantify this prevention of warping.  m T y (a) m T () m T M T (b) M T + M T ´d d  m T = m 0 + m 1   (c)  d m 1 m 0 Figure 9.3: The Warping Torsion Problem Fig. 9.3 (a) shows the warping torsion problem of a bar subjected to a distributed external torque. The differential equation governing the warping torsion problem, for a constant cross-section, becomes [10]: 40 VERiFiCATiON MANUAL | SOFiSTiK 2014 BE6: Warping Torsion Bar EC M d 4 ϕ d 4 − G T d 2 ϕ d 2 = m T , (9.5) where m T the distributed torque along the bar. The natural boundary conditions are: M ω = EC M d 2 ϕ d 2 , z = 0 or l (9.6) and −EC M d 3 ϕ d 3 + G T dϕ d = M T , z = 0 or l (9.7) where M T is the concentrated end torque and M ω the bimoment. Introducing λ, the so called decay factor, in the above equation, and a simplified notation for the derivatives of ϕ, we obtain: ϕ − λ 2 ϕ = m T EC M . (9.8) The solution of the warping torsion equation depends on the type of the torsional load and the kinematic boundary conditions, especially the amount of prevention of the warping. The complete solution system of Eq. 9.8, for the load type given in Fig. 9.3 (c), is thus: ϕ = C 1 λ 2 snh λ + C 2 λ 2 cosh λ + C 3  + C 4 − 1 2G T (m 0 + 1 3 m 1   ) 2 (9.9) ϕ = C 1 λ cosh λ + C 2 λ snh λ + C 3 − 1 2G T (2m 0 + m 1   ) (9.10) ϕ = C 1 snh λ + C 2 cosh λ − 1 G T (m 0 + m 1   ) (9.11) ϕ = C 1 λcosh λ + C 2 λsnh λ − m 1 G T  (9.12) The values of the constants C 1 to C 4 can be derived with respect to the kinematic boundary conditions of the problem. For the case of warping-free sections, where C M = 0, the differential equation is shortened, leading to the St. Venant torsion problem. 9.3 Model and Results The properties of the analysed model, are defined in Table 9.1. The corresponding results are presented in Table 9.2. Figure 9.4 shows the deformed shape of the structure and the angle of twist.

The beam is subjected to a total vertical load, applied at the tip of the cantilever, which should cause the tip to deflect significantly. The determination of the non-dimensional tip deflections ratios are determined. | ←−  −→| P Figure 10.1: Model Properties 10.2 Reference Solution The classical problem of deflection of a cantilever beam of linear elastic material, under the action of an external vertical concentrated load at the free end, is analysed (Fig. 10.2). The solution for large deflection of a cantilever beam cannot be obtained from elementary beam theory since basic assumptions are no longer valid. The elementary theory includes specific simplifications e.g. in the consideration of curvature derivatives, and provides no correction for the shortening of the moment arm as the loaded end of the beam deflects. For large finite loads, it gives deflections greater than the length of the beam [11]. P Δ δ L Figure 10.2: Problem Definition SOFiSTiK 2014 | VERiFiCATiON MANUAL 43 BE7: Large Deflection of Cantilever Beams I The mathematical treatment of the equilibrium of cantilever beams does not involve great difficulty. Nev- ertheless, unless small deflections are considered, an analytical solution does not exist, since for large deflections a differential equation with nonlinear terms must be solved. The problem is said to involve geometrical nonlinearity [12]. Therefore in order to account for this nonlinear term, third order theory is performed, where the equilibrium is established at the deformed configuration (geometrically nonlinear analysis). 10.3 Model and Results A circular pipe with cross-section of outer diameter 0.2 m and wall thickness 0.01 m is used, so that the beam is moderately slender. This type of problem becomes considerably more difficult numerically as the slenderness ratio increases [13]. The finite element model consists of twenty elements. The properties of the model are defined in Table 10.1. Table 10.1: Model Properties Material Properties Geometric Properties Loading E = 100 MP  = 10 m P = 269.35 N D = 0.2 m t = 0.01 m As an alternative, the structure is analysed with quad plane elements with a cross-section of the same stiffness as the circular, in order to achieve the same results and compare the behaviour of the two types of elements. The quad cross-section has a width of 0.3mand a thickness of 0.10261m, and therefore the same moment of inertia  = 2.701 m −5 as the one of the circular cross-section. Results for both models are presented in Table 10.2. Figure 10.3 shows the deflection of the beam for the two analysed models. Figure 10.4 presents the results, in terms of the motion of the tip of the cantilever, where they are compared to the exact solution for the inextensible beam, as given by Bisshopp and Drucker [11].

The concentrated moment causes the beam to wind around itself, i.e. deflect upwards and bend towards the built-in end. The analytical solution can be derived from the fundamental Bernoulli-Euler theory, which states that the curvature of the beam at any point is proportional to the bending moment at that point [14]. For the case of pure bending, the beam will bend into a circular arc of curvature R R = E M , (11.1) and will wind n times around itself [13] ML E = 2πn, (11.2) where  is the moment of inertia, E the Elasticity modulus and M the concentrated moment applied at the tip.

The analytical solution for the moment of inertia  y with respect to y axis is [5]:  y = _ A z 2 dA, (12.1) SOFiSTiK 2014 | VERiFiCATiON MANUAL 51 BE9: Verification of Beam and Section Types I in which each element of area dA is multiplied by the square of its distance from the z-axis and the integration is extended over the cross-sectional area A of the beam (Fig. 12.2). The torsional moment  T is more complicated to compute and depends on the cross-sections geometry. For circular cross- sections is:  T = _ A r 2 dA, (12.2) For thick-walled non-circular cross-sections, it depends on the warping function. Tabulated formulas are given in all relevant handbooks for the most common geometries [15]. For closed thin-walled non-circular cross-sections  T is [10]:  T = 4A 2 m n =1 s  t  , (12.3) and for open thin-walled non-circular cross-sections is:  T = 1 3 n =1 s  t 3  , (12.4) where A m is the area enclosed from the center line of the wall (Fig. 12.2), and t  , s  the dimensions of the parts from which the cross-section consists of. For the specific case of an I-cross-section, another approximate formula can be utilised, as defined by Petersen [10]:  T = 2 1 3 b t 3 _ 1 − 0.630 t b _ + 1 3 (h − 2t) s 3 + 2 α D 4 , (12.5) where s, t and D are described in Fig. 12.2 and α is extracted from the corresponding diagram, given in [10], w.r.t. the cross-section properties. For the same cross-section but according to Gensichen,  T is accordingly computed as:  T = 2 1 3 b t 3 _ 1 − 0.630 t b _ + 1 3 (h − 2t) s 3 + 0.29 s t _ _ _ s 2 _ 2 + t 2 t _ _ 4 (12.6) y r dA z A m h D t s b Figure 12.2: Cross-Sectional Properties 52 VERiFiCATiON MANUAL | SOFiSTiK 2014 BE9: Verification of Beam and Section Types I 12.3 Model and Results The properties of the different cross-sections, analysed in this example, are defined in Table 12.1.

For the case of the I-beam, it is observed in Table 12.2, that the absolute errors fluctuate between 3.44 % and 0.91 %, according to which approximate reference result are compared to. The reference values for the open sections I, L, C, T-beam, denoted with an asterisk, are computed with respect to the thin-walled theory reference solution (Eq. 12.4). Therefore for the calculated values with -POLY, which do not correspond to the thin-walled theory, deviations appear. If we now make a convergence study, for the case of the I-beam, decreasing the thickness of the cross-section and comparing it to the thin-walled reference solution, we will observe that the deviation is vanishing as we approach even thinner members. This is presented in Fig. 12.4 for an I-beam, where the absolute difference of the calculated from the reference value is depicted for decreasing thickness values. C SC C SC C SC C SC Figure 12.3: Rolled Steel Shapes For the case of open thin-walled non-circular cross-sections, modelled with -PLAT, we can observe that  T matches exactly the reference solution. For closed thin-walled non-circular cross-sections though, some deviations arise. If we take a closer look at the case of the square box, at first glance it appears to be not accurate enough, since the calculated value is 741.00 cm 4 and the reference is 729.00 cm 4 . The difference between them is 741.00 - 729.00 = 12 cm 4 , which corresponds to the reference value 54 VERiFiCATiON MANUAL | SOFiSTiK 2014 BE9: Verification of Beam and Section Types I of the open square box. This is due to the fact, that the reference solution for this type of sections given by Eq. 12.3, corresponds to the thin-walled theory and assumes a constant distribution of shear stresses over the thickness of the cross-section. However, SOFiSTiK assumes a generalised thin-walled theory, where the shear stresses due to torsion, are distributed linearly across the thickness, as shown in Fig. 12.5, and thus holds:  T genersed thn−ed theory =  T cosed,SOFSTK =  T cosed,thn−ed theory +  T open,thn−ed theory , (12.7) Eq. 12.7 is satisfied exactly for the square box cross-section and it can be visualised in Fig. 12.6 by the purple line for decreasing thicknesses, whereas the blue line denotes the deviation of the  T genersed thn−ed theory from the  T cosed,thn−ed theory . 5 5.5 6 6.5 7 7.5 8 8.5 9 9.5 10 0 2 · 10 −2 4 · 10 −2 6 · 10 −2 8 · 10 −2 0.1 0.12 0.14 0.16 0.18 0.2 Thickness [mm] __  T , r e ƒ −  T , c   c __ [ c m 4 ] Figure 12.4: Convergence of I-beam For the same cross-section, but now modelled with -POLY, it is evident that the difference from the reference solution is larger, reaching the value of 5.90 %, as presented by the green line. This is due to the fact that except from the difference in the stresses consideration, as explained above, the thin-walled assumption is also engaged. If we do a convergence study for this cross-section, and compared it to the one modelled with -PLAT, represented by the red line, we will observe that as the thickness decreases the deviation curves gradually coincide. For the case of the standard tabulated rolled steel shapes, depicted in Fig. 12.3, we can observe that the differences deviate between 0.46 to 0.00 % for the  y and between 9.51 to 0.76 % for the  T , according to the reference source. Thus, it is evident once more, that the calculation of the  T is a complicated matter.

Thin-walled Theory Figure 12.6: Convergence of Square Box From the results in Table 12.1, we can see that for the definition of general cross-sections the use of -POLY option gives the exact values for  y . For the definition of thin-walled cross-sections the use of -PLAT gives very good results for  T whereas for the determination of  y some deviations appear. This is due to the fact that in order for the cross-section to be connected for shear, some parts of the plates overlap at the connections giving an additional moment of inertia around the y-axis. This can be seen at Fig. 12.7 for the I beam. It can be avoided if the -PLAT option is used without overlapping of parts but in combination with -WELD in order to ensure the proper connection of the plates. This can be seen from the results for the I- and L-beam which are analysed for the three options -POLY, -PLAT, -PLAT and -WELD. 56 VERiFiCATiON MANUAL | SOFiSTiK 2014 BE9: Verification of Beam and Section Types I C SC C SC C SC -PLAT -PLAT and -WELD -POLY Figure 12.7: Definition types of I-beam 12.4 Conclusion This example presents the different cross-sections and their properties according to their definition in AQUA.

For the first case the fiber beam is used (TALPA), where the cross-section is discretised into single fibers and directly integrates the continuum mechanical material reaction into beam theory, and physically nonlinear analysis is performed. For the second case the standard beam elements are used and the model is analysed with STAR2 where a nonlinear stress and strain evaluation determination is performed. For the third case, the quad elements are used and a nonlinear analysis is done with ASE. The results are presented in Table 14.2 for the three cases.

From the above results, it is evident that both beam element formulations adequately reproduce the intended behaviour. Fig. 14.3 shows the distribution of stresses for the case of the fiber beam with M/M yed = 0.99, 1.0 and 1.5. For the quad element, the stress appears to exceed the limit value of 420 MP. This is due to the fact that, as the plasticity involves at the cross-section, plastic strains also appear in the lateral direction. This causes a biaxial stress state, which is not neglected by the quad formulation, as shown in Fig. 14.4 for M/M yed = 1.0 and 1.48.

The tip of the cantilever is offsetted in y-direction by Δ y = / 200 = 2.5 cm, creating a geometrical imperfection. The beam is loaded with a transverse force P z and an axial force P  . The imperfection acts as a lever arm for the loading, causing a torsional moment. The torsional moment at the support with respect to the local and global coordinate system is determined.

According to the equilib- rium of moments at the deformed system, with respect to the global -axis, the torsional moment at the support M  gob is: M  gob = P z ( y + Δ y ) − P y  z , (15.1) whereas by the local -axis the torsional moment M  oc is: M  oc = P z  y + P  ( Δ y  )  z , (15.2) where  is the length of the beam, Δ y the initial geometrical imperfection and P  is negative for compres- sion.

Determine the critical buckling load. [18] P P y   P y  / 2 Figure 16.1: Problem Description 16.2 Reference Solution The problemof lateral buckling of bars is examined here. The case of a bar with hinged ends is very often encountered in practical applications and is called the ƒ ndment case of buckling of a prismatic bar. For the case of an axially compressed bar there is a certain critical value of the compressive force at which large lateral deflection may be produced by the slightest lateral load. For a prismatical bar with hinged ends (Fig. 16.1) this critical compressive force is [6]: P cr = π 2 E (β) 2 = π 2 E  2 , (16.1) SOFiSTiK 2014 | VERiFiCATiON MANUAL 71 BE13: Buckling of a Bar with Hinged Ends I where  is the full length of the bar, E its flexural rigidity and β the effective length coefficient, whose value depends on the conditions of end support of the bar. For the fundamental case, β = 1. If the load P is less than its critical value the bar remains straight and undergoes only axial compression. This straight form of elastic equilibrium is stable, i.e., if a lateral force is applied and a small deflection is produced this deflection disappears when the lateral load is removed and the bar becomes straight again. By increasing P up to the critical load causes the column to be in a state of unstable equilibrium, which means, that the introduction of the slightest lateral force will cause the column to undergo large lateral deflection and eventually fail by buckling. 16.3 Model and Results Only the upper half of the bar is modelled because of symmetry (Fig. 16.1). The boundary conditions thus become free-fixed for the half symmetry model. A total of 20 elements are used to capture the buckling mode. The properties of the model are defined in Table 16.1.

For a prismatic bar, the critical load is [6]: P cr = π 2 E (β) 2 . (17.1) From the above equation it is evident, that the critical load does not depend upon the strength of the material but only upon the dimensions of the structure and the modulus of elasticity of the material. Two equal slender axially compressed bars, will buckle at the same compressive force, if they consist of the SOFiSTiK 2014 | VERiFiCATiON MANUAL 75 BE14: Buckling of a Bar with Hinged Ends II same flexural rigidity and material with the same Young’s modulus. 17.3 Model and Results Only the upper half of the bar is modelled because of symmetry (Fig. 17.1). The boundary conditions thus become free-fixed for the half symmetry model. A total of 20 elements are used to capture the buckling mode. The properties of the model are defined in Table 17.1.

The analysed model fulfils the above prerequisites. The flexural buckling load is: P bck z = π 2 E z s 2 z γ M , (18.1) whereas the torsional buckling load is: SOFiSTiK 2014 | VERiFiCATiON MANUAL 77 BE15: Flexural and Torsional Buckling P bck θ = 1  2 m γ M _ G T + π 2 EC M s 2 θ _ , (18.2) where E z the flexural rigidity, C M the warping modulus, γ M a safety factor, G the shear modulus,  T the torsional moment and  M is the polar radius of gyration calculated as following:  M =  y +  z A .

Using the symmetry of the equivalent system the model can be reduced to half as shown at Fig. 20.1. Due to the bending moments, the load application on the upper flange of the beam (z p ) and the imper- fection, the beam is at risk for lateral torsional buckling.

In order to account for this effect, second order theory has to be utilised. The total torsional moment M T is given as a sum of the different torsional parts, the primary, secondary and third respectively: M  = M T = M T1 + M T2 + M T3 , (21.1) SOFiSTiK 2014 | VERiFiCATiON MANUAL 85 BE18: Three-storey Column under Large Compressive Force and Torsional Moment where M T1 = G T ϕ , (21.2) M T2 = − E C M ϕ , (21.3) M T3 = N 2 p ϕ , (21.4) and the warping moment M ω = − E C M ϕ .

From the formulation of the equilibrium conditions at the twisted element, the torsional moment part M T3 results, which covers the contribution of the axial force in the total torsional moment. Therefore second order theory is utilised here, in order to account for the torsional effect of the axial force, as well as the warping torsion arising from the application of the torsional moment and the axial force at the intermediary nodes of the beam. The total torsional moment M T is given as a sum of the different torsional parts, the primary, secondary and third respectively: M  = M T = M T1 + M T2 + M T3 , (22.1) where M T1 = G T ϕ , (22.2) M T2 = − E C M ϕ , (22.3) SOFiSTiK 2014 | VERiFiCATiON MANUAL 89 BE19: Two-span Beam with Warping Torsion and Compressive Force M T3 = N 2 p ϕ , (22.4) and the warping moment M ω = − E C M ϕ .

The horizontal passive earth pressure is determined and is compared to the value obtained for the case of the soil mass externally forced to its limiting strength. B Soil H W a l l Figure 23.1: Problem Description 23.2 Reference Solution When a retaining wall is forced against a soil mass, lateral passive earth pressure is exerted from the soil to the wall. In order to describe the horizontal component of the pressure the soil will exert, an earth pressure coefficient K ph according to Coulomb theory is used: K ph = cos 2 (ϕ − α) _ 1 − _ sn(ϕ+δ p) · sn(ϕ+β) cos(α+δ p) · cos(α+β) _ 2 cos 2 α , (23.1) where the parameters α, ϕ, δ p and β are defined in Fig. 23.2. The wall friction angle is denoted by δ p and the soil friction angle by ϕ. The horizontal passive earth pressure resultant is [15]: E ph = 1 2 γ H 2 K ph . (23.2) In order to account for the development of irreversible strains in the soil, under the action of the passive load, a plasticity model has to be utilised. Whether plasticity occurs in a calculation, can be evaluated with a yield function ƒ , where the condition ƒ = 0 stands for the plastic yielding. This condition can be represented as a surface in principal stress space. In this Benchmark, the Mohr-Coulomb model is SOFiSTiK 2014 | VERiFiCATiON MANUAL 93 BE20: Passive Earth Pressure I adopted, which represents an elastic perfectly-plastic behaviour. A perfectly-plastic model corresponds to a fixed yield surface, i.e. a yield surface that is fully defined by model parameters and is not affected by plastic straining. Moreover, for stress state within the yield surface, the behaviour is purely elastic and all strains are reversible. Hence, the Mohr-Coulomb model requires the input of a total of five parameters, the Young’s modulus E and Poisson’s ratio ν for the definition of the elasticity, and three for the plasticity, the friction angle ϕ, the cohesion c and the dilatancy angle ψ. The dilatancy angle is involved in the plastic potential function and controls the evolution of plastic volumetric strain increments [24]. ƒ = σ 1 − 1 − snϕ 1 + snϕ · σ 3 − 2c cosϕ 1 + snϕ , (23.3) Q β H ϕ α δ p E p ϑ p Figure 23.2: Passive Earth Pressure by Coulomb The yield function for the Mohr-Coulomb model [24] is defined by Eq. 23.3, where σ 1 and σ 3 are the principal stresses, and its yield surface is shown in Fig. 23.3. −σ 1 −σ 3 −σ 2 Figure 23.3: Mohr-Coulomb Yield Surface in Principal Stress Space 23.3 Model and Results The properties of the model are defined in Table 23.1.

The problem consists of a soil mass retained by a wall as shown in Fig. 24.1. The horizontal passive earth pressure is determined and is compared to the value obtained for the case of the soil mass externally forced to its limiting strength. B Soil H W a l l Figure 24.1: Problem Description 24.2 Reference Solution When a retaining wall is forced against a soil mass, lateral passive earth pressure is exerted from the soil to the wall. In order to describe the horizontal component of the pressure the soil will exert, an earth pressure coefficient K ph according to Coulomb theory is used: K ph = cos 2 (ϕ − α) _ 1 − _ sn(ϕ+δ p) · sn(ϕ+β) cos(α+δ p) · cos(α+β) _ 2 cos 2 α , (24.1) where the parameters α, ϕ, δ p and β are defined in Fig. 24.2. The wall friction angle is denoted by δ p and the soil friction angle by ϕ. The horizontal passive earth pressure resultant is [15]: E ph = 1 2 γ H 2 K ph . (24.2) In order to account for the development of irreversible strains in the soil, under the action of the passive load, a plasticity model has to be used. In this Benchmark the hardening plasticity soil model is adopted, which is an extended elastoplastic material with an optimized hardening rule [24]. In contrast to the Mohr- Coulomb model (Be. 20), which is an elastic-perfectly-plastic model, the yield surface of a hardening SOFiSTiK 2014 | VERiFiCATiON MANUAL 97 BE21: Passive Earth Pressure II plasticity model is not fixed but it can expand due to plastic straining. Its hardening rule is based on a hyperbolic stress-strain relationship, derived from triaxial testing. Hardening is limited by the material ’s strength, represented by the classic Mohr-Coulomb failure criterion. Additionally, the model accounts for the stress dependent stiffness, it captures the loading state and can therefore account for the different stiffness in primary loading and un-/reloading paths. The important features of the model are [24]: • the deviatoric hardening based on hyperbolic stress-strain relationship: input parameter E 50,reƒ , R ƒ • the Mohr-Coulomb failure criterion: input parameter ϕ, c, ψ • the stress dependent stiffness: input parameter m, P reƒ • the loading dependent stiffness: input parameter μ, E r • the optional limitation of tensile stress: input parameter ƒ t • the modelling of the contractant behaviour and stiffness during primary compression (oedometric testing): input parameter E s,reƒ • the preservation of a realistic stress ratio: input parameter k 0 Q β H ϕ α δ p E p ϑ p Figure 24.2: Passive Earth Pressure by Coulomb The yield surface (Fig. 24.3) for the hardening plasticity model is bounded by the Mohr-Coulomb failure criterion, while the oedometric properties create a cap yield surface, closing the elastic region in the direction of the p-axis. −σ 1 −σ 3 −σ 2 Mohr-Coulomb yield surface p σ 1 − σ 3 M o h r - C o u l o m b f a i l u r e l i n e Figure 24.3: Yield Surface Properties 98 VERiFiCATiON MANUAL | SOFiSTiK 2014 BE21: Passive Earth Pressure II 24.3 Model and Results The properties of the model are defined in Table 24.1. The hardening plasticity model (GRAN) is used for the modelling of the soil behaviour in order for a more realistic representation in comparison to the elastic-perfectly-plastic Mohr-Coulomb model (Benchmark 20). The load is defined as a unit support displacement in the -direction and is increased gradually until a limit value. It is applied at node 405, which is kinematically coupled with the wall nodes as shown in Fig. 24.4, and therefore corresponds to a uniformly applied load at the wall nodes. Maximum displacement is recorded for each loading increment, and the curve of horizontal passive earth pressure-displacement (Fig. 24.5) is plotted against the reference solution according to Coulomb theory. 405 Figure 24.4: Finite Element Model Table 24.1: Model Properties Material Properties Geometric Properties Loading Wall Soil Wall Soil E = 30000 MP E = 300 MP B = 0.1 m B = 30 m W  = 1 mm ν = 0.18 μ = 0.20 H = 0.8 m H = 6 m γ = 24 kN/ m 3 γ = 19 kN/ m 3 c = 1 kN/ m 2 ϕ = 38 ◦ ψ = 6 ◦ E s,reƒ = 75 MP E 50,reƒ = 75 MP m = 0.55 R ƒ = 0.9 P reƒ = 0.1 MP δ p = ϕ / 3, γ boyncy = 9 kN/ m 3 From the comparison of the curves with respect to the two different plasticity models and the refer- ence solution, it can be observed that both approach the limit value accurately. Their basic difference lies on the accounting of the hardening effect, a more realistic approach, which corresponds to higher deformations for the limit value, as it can be observed by the hardening plasticity curve in Fig. 24.5.

The material is assumed to be linearly elastic-perfectly plastic with a failure surface defined by the Mohr-Coulomb criterion and with zero volume change during plastic flow. The calculation of the ground reaction line is performed and compared to the analytical solution according to Hoek [25] [26]. p o p o p  Figure 25.1: Problem Description 25.2 Reference Solution The stability of deep underground excavations depends upon the strength of the rock mass surrounding the excavations and upon the stresses induced in this rock. These induced stresses are a function of the shape of the excavations and the in-situ stresses which existed before the creation of the excavations [25]. When tunnelling in rock, it should be examined how the rock mass, surrounding the tunnel, deforms and how the support system acts to control this deformation. In order to explore this effect, an analytical solution for a circular tunnel will be utilised, which is based on the assumption of a hydrostatic in-situ state. Furthermore, the surrounding rock mass is assumed to follow an elastic-perfectly-plastic material behaviour with zero volume change during plastic flow. Therefore the Mohr-Coulomb failure criterion is adopted, in order to model the progressive plastic failure of the rock mass surrounding the tunnel. The onset of plastic failure, is thus expressed as: SOFiSTiK 2014 | VERiFiCATiON MANUAL 103 BE22: Tunneling - Ground Reaction Line σ 1 = σ cm + kσ 3 , (25.1) where σ 1 is the axial stress where failure occurs, σ 3 the confining stress and σ cm the uniaxial compres- sive strength of the rock mass defined by: σ cm = 2c cosϕ 1 − snϕ . (25.2) The parameters c and ϕ correspond to the cohesion and angle of friction of the rock mass, respectively. The tunnel behaviour on the other hand, is evaluated in terms of the internal support pressure. A circular tunnel of radius r o subjected to hydrostatic stresses p o and a uniform internal support pressure p  , as shown in Fig. 25.2, is assumed. p o p o p  r p r  Figure 25.2: Plastic zone surrounding a circular tunnel As a measure of failure, the critical support pressure p cr is defined: p cr = 2p o − σ cm 1 + k , (25.3) where k is the coefficient of passive earth pressure defined by: k = 1 + snϕ 1 − snϕ . (25.4) If the internal support pressure p  is greater than p cr , the behaviour of the surrounding rock mass remains elastic and the inward elastic displacement of the tunnel wall is:  e = r o (1 + ν) E (p o − p  ), (25.5) where E is the Young’s modulus and ν the Poisson’s ratio. If p  is less than p cr , failure occurs and the total inward radial displacement of the walls of the tunnel becomes: 104 VERiFiCATiON MANUAL | SOFiSTiK 2014 BE22: Tunneling - Ground Reaction Line  p = r o (1 + ν) E _ 2(1 + ν) (p o − p cr ) _ r p r o _ 2 − (1 − 2ν) (p o − p  ) _ , (25.6) and the plastic zone around the tunnel forms with a radius r p defined by: r p = r o _ 2(p o (k − 1) + σ cm ) (1 + k) ((k − 1) p  + σ cm ) _ 1 (k−1) (25.7) 25.3 Model and Results The properties of the model are defined in Table 25.1. The Mohr-Coulomb plasticity model is used for the modelling of the rock behaviour. The load is defined as a unit supporting pressure, uniform along the whole line of the circular hole, following the real curved geometry. The ground reaction line is calculated, which depicts the inward oriented deformation along the circumference of the opening that is to be expected in dependence of the acting support pressure.

In the simplest model of a SDOF system, as shown in Fig. 26.2 in its idealized form, these properties are concentrated in a single physical element. For this system the elastic resistance to displacement is provided by the spring of stiffness k, while the energy-loss mechanism by the damper c. The mass m is included in the rigid body, which is is able to move only in simple translation, and thus the single displacement coordinate (t) completely describes its position [27]. (t) p(t) m c k Figure 26.2: Problem Description SOFiSTiK 2014 | VERiFiCATiON MANUAL 107 BE23: Undamped Free Vibration of a SDOF System The motion of a linear SDOF system, subjected to an external force p(t) is governed by [27] [28]: m¨  + c˙  + k = p(t) (26.1) Setting p(t) = 0, gives the differential equation governing the free vibration of the system m¨  + c˙  + k = 0 (26.2) For a system without damping (c =0), Eq. 26.2 specialises to m¨  + k = 0 (26.3) Free vibration is initiated by disturbing the system from its static equilibrium position by imparting the mass some displacement (0) and/or velocity ( ˙ 0) at time zero.

Subjected also to initial conditions, (0) and ( ˙ 0), the total solution to Eq. 29.2 is: (t) = (0) cos ω n t + _ ˙ (0) ω n − p o k ω p / ω n 1 − (ω p / ω n ) 2 _ sn ω n t . _¸ . trnsent + p o k 1 1 − (ω p / ω n ) 2 sn ω p t . _¸ . stedystte (29.3) SOFiSTiK 2014 | VERiFiCATiON MANUAL 117 BE26: Response of a SDOF System to Harmonic Excitation Eq. 29.3 shows, that u(t) contains two distinct vibration components, first the term sn ω p t gives a vibration at the exciting frequency and second the terms sn ω n t and cos ω n t give a vibration at the natural frequency of the system. The first term is the steady state vibration, corresponding to the applied force and the latter is the transient vibration, depending on the initial conditions. It exists even if the initial conditions vanish, in which case it becomes (t) = p o k 1 1 − (ω p / ω n ) 2 _ sn ω p t − ω p ω n sn ω n t _ (29.4) For the case of a damped SDOF system, the total solution is given by (t) = e −ξω n t [A cos ω D t + B sn ω D t] . _¸ . trnsent + C sn ω p t + Dcos ω p t . _¸ . stedystte (29.5) The coefficients C and D are determined from the particular solution of the differential equation of motion (Eq. 29.1), whereas A and B are determined in terms of the initial conditions.

For the undamped system, the steady state response amplitude tends towards infinity as we approach unity and the peak values build up linearly, as shown in Fig. 29.2. For the damped case though, they build up in accordance to ( st / 2ξ)e −ξω n t and towards a steady state level, as shown in Fig. 29.2. The static deformation  st = p o / k, corresponds to the displacement which would be produced by the load p o if applied statically, and serves as a measure of amplitude.

The response of the system is determined and compared to the exact reference solution. (t) p(t) m c k Figure 30.1: Problem Description p(t) t Figure 30.2: Arbitrary Impulsive Loading 30.2 Reference Solution Another special case of dynamic loading of the SDOF system is the impulsive load. Such a load consists of a single principal impulse of arbitrary form, as illustrated in Fig. 30.2, and generally is of relatively short duration. Damping has much less importance in controlling the maximum response of a structure to impulsive loads than for periodic or harmonic loads because the maximum response to a particular impulsive load will be reached in a very short time, before the damping forces can absorb much energy SOFiSTiK 2014 | VERiFiCATiON MANUAL 121 BE27: Response of a SDOF System to Impulsive Loading from the structure [27]. Therefore the undamped response to impulsive loads will be considered in this Benchmark. p(t) p 0 t t 1 (a) Half sine wave p(t) p 0 t t 1 (b) Rectangular Figure 30.3: Examined Impulse Loading The response to an impulse loading is always divided into two phases, the first corresponds to the forced vibration phase in the interval during which the load acts and the second corresponds to the free vibration phase which follows. Let us consider the case, where the structure is subjected to a single half sine wave loading as shown in Fig. 30.3(a). Assuming that the system starts from rest, the undamped response ratio time history R(t) = (t)/ (p 0 / k), is given by the simple harmonic load expression R(t) = 1 1 − β 2 _ sn ω p t − β sn ω n t _ (30.1) where β =ω p / ω n , p o is the amplitude value of the force and ω p its frequency. Introducing the non dimensional time parameter α = t/ t 1 so that ω p t = πα and ω n t = πα/ β, we can rewrite the equation accordingly R(α) = 1 1 − β 2 _ sn πα − β sn πα β _ 0 ≤ α ≤ 1 (30.2) where t 1 the duration of the impulse and β ≡ T/ 2t 1 . This equation is valid only for phase  correspond- ing to 0 ≤ α ≤ 1. While it is very important to understand the complete time history behaviour as shown in Fig. 30.4, the engineer is usually only interested in the maximum value of response as represented by Points a, b, c, d, and e. If a maximum value occurs in Phase , the value of α at which it occurs can be determined by differentiating Eq. 30.2 with respect to α and equating to zero d R(α) d α = 0 (30.3) solving for α yields the α values for the maxima α = 2βn β + 1 n = 0, 1, 2, ... 0 ≤ α ≤ 1 (30.4) For phase  where t ≥ t 1 and the free vibration occurs, the value of α is not necessary and the maximum response is given by 122 VERiFiCATiON MANUAL | SOFiSTiK 2014 BE27: Response of a SDOF System to Impulsive Loading R m = _ −2β 1 − β 2 _ cos π 2β α ≥ 1 (30.5) Accordingly for the case of a rectangular impulse loading Fig. 30.3(b), the general response ratio solution for at rest initial conditions and for phase  is given by R(α) = 1 − cos 2π t 1 T α 0 ≤ α ≤ 1 (30.6) The maximum response ratio R m is given again in terms of α and can be determined in the same manner by differentiating Eq. 30.6 with respect to α and equating to zero, yielding α = βn n = 0, 1, 2, ... 0 ≤ α ≤ 1 (30.7) For phase , the maximum response of the free vibrating system is given by R m = 2 sn π t 1 T α ≥ 1 (30.8) Special attention has to be given in the case of β = 1 where the expression of the response ratio becomes indeterminate and the L’ Hospital’s rule has to be utilised. R(t) t Figure 30.4: Response Ratios due to Half Sine Pulse 30.3 Model and Results In the expressions derived before, the maximum response produced in an undamped SDOF structure by each type of impulsive loading depends only on the ratio of the impulse duration to the natural period of the structure t 1 / T. Thus, it is useful to plot the maximum value of response ratio Rm as a function of t 1 / T for various forms of impulsive loading. Such plots are commonly known as displacement-response spectra and are derived here, for two forms of loading, a rectangular and a half sine wave impulse. SOFiSTiK 2014 | VERiFiCATiON MANUAL 123 BE27: Response of a SDOF System to Impulsive Loading Generally plots like these can be used to predict with adequate accuracy the maximum effect to be expected from a given type of impulsive loading acting on a simple structure.

It is a rather important topic due to the fact that most of the holes drilled through rock are of circular section. The classical Kirsch solution can be used to find the radial and tangential displacement fields and stress distributions, for a cylindrical hole in an infinite isotropic elastic medium under plane strain conditions. The stresses σ r and σ θ for a point at polar coordinates (r, θ) outside the cylindrical opening of radius α are given by [30]: σ r = p 1 + p 2 2 _ 1 − α 2 r 2 _ + p 1 − p 2 2 _ 1 − 4α 2 r 2 + 3α 4 r 4 _ cos 2θ (31.1) σ θ = p 1 + p 2 2 _ 1 + α 2 r 2 _ − p 1 − p 2 2 _ 1 + 3α 4 r 4 _ cos 2θ (31.2) The radial outward displacement  r , assuming conditions of plane strain, is given by: SOFiSTiK 2014 | VERiFiCATiON MANUAL 125 BE28: Cylindrical Hole in an Infinite Elastic Medium  r = p 1 + p 2 4G α 2 r + p 1 − p 2 4G α 2 r _ 4(1 − ν) − α 2 r 2 _ cos 2θ (31.3) where G is the shear modulus, ν the Poisson ratio and p 1 , p 2 , θ, r are defined in Fig. 31.2 σ r σ θ θ  r  θ r p 1 p 2 Figure 31.2: Cyllindrical Hole in an Infinite Elastic Medium 31.3 Model and Results The properties of the model are defined in Table 31.1.

The material is assumed to be linearly elastic and perfectly plastic with a failure surface defined by the Mohr-Coulomb criterion. The stresses and the displacements are verified. P o P o P  Figure 32.1: Problem Description 32.2 Reference Solution Consider a hollow cylinder with inner radius  and outer radius r, under plane strain conditions, with a uniform pressure applied to its outer surface. If this pressure is slowly increased from 0 to some value P o , at first the cylinder will everywhere be in the elastic zone. As Po increases further, the yielding will start, the yielded zone will grow radially outward, and the cylinder will consist of an inner annular region that has yielded and an outer annulus that is still in its elastic state [30]. A specialised problem is now the calculation of the stresses outside a cylindrical hole in an infinite elastic-perfectly-plastic medium, here with a failure surface defined by the Mohr-Coulomb criterion. Assume that the rock mass is initially under hydrostatic stress P o and then a circular hole of radius  is drilled into the rock, so that the stress at r =  is reduced to some value P  . The yield zone radius R o is given analytically by the theoretical model based on the solution of Salencon [31] SOFiSTiK 2014 | VERiFiCATiON MANUAL 129 BE29: Cylindrical Hole in an Infinite Mohr-Coulomb Medium R o = α _ 2 K p + 1 P o + q K p −1 P  + q K p −1 _ 1 Kp−1 (32.1) where α is the radius of the hole, P o the initial in-situ stress, P  the internal pressure and K p , q are given by K p = 1 + sn ϕ 1 − sn ϕ (32.2) q = 2c tn(45 + ϕ/ 2) (32.3) The parameters c and ϕ correspond to the cohesion and angle of friction of the medium respectively. For sufficiently small values of P o , where P o ¡ P  holds, the medium will be in its elastic state, and the stresses will be given by [30] [32] σ r = P o − (P o − σ re ) _ R o r _ 2 (32.4) σ θ = P o + (P o − σ re ) _ R o r _ 2 (32.5) where r is the distance from the field point to the center of the hole and σ re is the radial stress at the elastic-plastic interface σ re = 1 K p + 1 (2P o − q) (32.6) For P o > P  , the rock will fail within some annular region surrounding the borehole. The stresses in the yielded zone will be given by σ r = − q K p − 1 + _ P  + q K p − 1 _ _ r α _ K p −1 (32.7) σ r = − q K p − 1 + K p _ P  + q K p − 1 _ _ r α _ K p −1 (32.8) 32.3 Model and Results The properties of the model are defined in Table 32.1.

A simple two-node truss, as shown in Fig. 34.1, is examined in terms of the limit load and snap-through behaviour. H P L Figure 34.1: Problem Description 34.2 Reference Solution In this problem a truss is pin-jointed to a rigid surface at one end and subjected to a transverse vertical point force at the other end as shown in Fig. 34.1. The loaded end is restrained to move only vertically and the truss in inclined with respect to the horizontal. This problem is effectively a symmetrical half of a two-bar structure and is utilised here in order to demonstrate the snap-through behaviour and limit points. The analytical solution assuming a shallow strut is given by [34] [14] P = EAH 3 2L 3 _ 2 H + 3 2 H 2 +  3 H 3 _ (34.1) where the parameters H and L are shown in Fig. 34.1. The reference solution is plotted in Fig. 34.2.The load-displacement curve rises until it reaches a limit point A. If we continue further, the next point will be B, where the bar is horizontal and the vertical load reduces to zero. Further increments cause the bar to deflect below the horizontal axis until the second limit point is reached at point C. Note that after point B, the load reverses its sign and acts upwards. After point C, the bar continues its motion downwards until it reaches point D, where the vertical load is zero. Note that under load-control approach, snap-through behaviour occurs after the first limit point A, where the bar suddenly jumps from point A to point E without any increase in the load. By switching from load- control to displacement-control, i.e. the displacement rather than the load is applied in small increments, the solution is able to progress beyond the limit point A, where further displacements cause the load to SOFiSTiK 2014 | VERiFiCATiON MANUAL 137 BE31: Snap-Through Behaviour of a Truss reduce as the bar reaches a horizontal position at B. Figure 34.2: Analytical Load-Displacement Curve 34.3 Model and Results The properties of the model are defined in Table 34.1. In the load-control approach, the load is applied in significantly small increments in order to be able to capture point A. In the displacement-control, the displacement increments are of 1 mm. The load-displacement curve for both approaches is presented in Fig. 34.3 and compared to the analytical solution. If we solve Eq. 34.1 with respect to the limit points, we observe that at point A the displacement is 10.57 mm and the corresponding critical loading is P cr = 9.6225 N.

The value of the load obtained before the snap-through occurs, corresponding to point A, is P = 9.62 N, with a displacement of 10.415 mm, which is in very good agreement with the theoretical critical value P cr . Furthermore, we can observe that the more suitable solution strategy, for such a simple system, for obtaining the load-deflection response is to adopt the displacement control approach, which clearly as shown in Fig. 34.3, has no difficulty with the local limit point at A and traces the complete equilibrium path. 138 VERiFiCATiON MANUAL | SOFiSTiK 2014 BE31: Snap-Through Behaviour of a Truss Figure 34.3: Calculated Load-Displacement Curve 34.4 Conclusion This example verifies the determination of the limit load and snap-through behaviour of a simple truss.

Therefore test case 7 is employed as presented in Annex CC of the standard DIN EN 1992-1-2/NA:2010-03 [35].

In this case the influence of temperature exposure on the development of restraining forces in steel is investigated. To illustrate the development of the restraining forces, consider a steel bar fixed at both ends and exposed to fire. As the bar is heated it tries to expand. However, the fixture prevents expansion in the longitudinal direction. Thus, the fixture exerts restraining forces on the bar. Since the bar is prevented from longitudinal expansion, it is possible to expand in the other directions. 38.3 Model and Results The properties of the model are defined in Table 38.1. A beam with cross-sectional dimensions b/ h = 100/ 100 mm,  = 1000 mm and fixed at both ends, as depicted in Fig. 38.1, is examined here. The material of the cross-section is structural steel with a fictive yield strength of ƒ yk(20 ◦ C) = 650 N/ mm 2 and thermo-mechanical properties according to EN 1993-1-2. The model is exposed to different tem- peratures.

This is due to the fact that, as the plasticity involves at the cross-section, plastic strains appear also in the lateral direction. This causes a biaxial stress state (σ  = 0), which is not neglected by the quad formulation, as shown in Fig. 38.2, and has an effect on both the stresses and moments in the y direction. Figure 38.2: Nonlinear Stresses for Temperature 220 ◦ C at Bottom Quad Layer 38.4 Conclusion This example verifies the development of restraining forces in steel due to temperature exposure. It has been shown that the calculation results are in very good agreement with the reference results for both the QUAD layer element and the FIBER beam element. 38.5 Literature [35] DIN EN 1991-1-2/NA: Eurocode 1: Actions on structures, Part 1-2/NA: Actions on structures ex- posed to fire.

The elastic demand and capacity diagrams are assumed to be know. S d S dp S  S p El. Demand Diagram Performance Point Capacity Diagram Demand Diagram Figure 39.1: Determination of the performance point PP (S dp , S p ) 39.2 Reference Solution The reference solution is provided in [36], 8.3.3.3 ”Performance Point Calculation by Capacity Spectrum Method - Procedure A”. Assuming that the elastic demand diagram (5% elastic response spectrum in ADRS format 1 ) and the capacity diagram are known, it is possible to determine the performance point PP (S dp , S p ) (Fig. 39.1). The procedure comprises of a series of trial calculations (trial performance points PP t (S dp,t , S p,t )), in which the equivalent inelastic single degree of freedom system (SDOF), represented by the capacity diagram, is transformed to an equivalent elastic SDOF system whose response in form of the perfor- mance point PP is then calculated from the reduced elastic response spectrum (demand diagram). The computation stops when the performance point PP is within a tolerance of a trial performance point PP t . The ATC-40 Procedure A is a semi-analytical procedure since it involves graphical bilinear idealization of the capacity diagram. Detailed description of this step-by-step procedure can be found in [36]. 1 ADRS = Spectral Acceleration S  - Spectral Displacement S d format SOFiSTiK 2014 | VERiFiCATiON MANUAL 159 BE36: Pushover Analysis: Performance Point Calculation by ATC-40 Procedure 39.3 Model and Results In order to verify the analysis procedure for the determination of the performance point, a test case has been set up in such a way that it comprises of a SDOF with a unit mass and a non-linear spring element. It is obvious that for such an element the quantities governing the transformation from the original system to the equivalent inelastic SDOF system must be equal to one, i.e. ϕ cnod = 1 ;  = 1 ; m = 1 , (39.1) where ϕ cnod is the eigenvector value at control node,  is the modal participation factor and m is the generalized modal mass. Writing now the equations which govern the conversion of the pushover curve to capacity diagram, we obtain [37] S d =  cnod ϕ cnod ·  =  cnod , (39.2a) S  = V b  2 · m = V b , (39.2b) where V b is the base shear and  cnod is the control node displacement. Since the original system is a SDOF system, V b and  cnod are nothing else but the force in spring P and the displacement of the unit mass , respectively. It follows further that the force-displacement work law assigned to the spring element corresponds to the capacity diagram in ADRS format, with the force P and displacement  equal to S  and S d , respectively. The capacity diagram used in the reference example is defined by four points, whose coordinates are listed in the Table 39.1. According to the analysis above, these points can be used to define the force- displacement work law P −  of the non-linear spring element (Fig.39.2).

Small differences can mainly be attributed to the approximate nature of the graphical procedure for the bilinear idealization of the capacity used in the reference solution, while the procedure implemented in SOFiLOAD is refrained from such approximation and computes the hysteretic energy directly from the area underneath the capacity curve and the coordinates of the performance point [37]. Apart from that, the performance point displacement tolerance used in SOFiLOAD is lower than the one used in the reference solution (1% compared to 5%). 39.4 Conclusion Excellent agreement between the reference and the results computed by SOFiSTiK verifies that the procedure for the calculation of the performance point according to ATC-40 is adequately implemented. 39.5 Literature [36] ATC-40.

As a reference solution, a general formulation concept is adopted, where through the application of series functions, uniform formulas can be derived to describe the beam behaviour of varying cross-section. In this concept, the cross-section properties can vary according to a polynomial of arbitrary degree, the normal force, with respect to second order theory, is assumed constant, the imperfections or predeformations as well as the temperature loads are taken into account and the deformations due to moments and normal forces are treated. Further SOFiSTiK 2014 | VERiFiCATiON MANUAL 163 BE37: Beam Calculation of Varying Cross-Section according to Second Order Theory information on the reference solution can be found in Rubin (1991) [38]. 40.3 Model and Results The general properties of the model [38] are defined in Table 40.1 and the cross-sections in Table 40.2. A general linear material is used and a linearly varying, thin-walled I-beam profile for the cross-section. The shear deformations are neglected. A safety factor of 1.35 is used for the dead weight, giving a total normal force of N = −0.5 − 0.0203 = −0.5203 MN. An imperfection of linear distribution with maximum value of 60 mm at node E is applied, as well as one of quadratic distribution with maximum value of −48 mm at the middle. The temperature load is given as a difference of temperature of 25 ◦ C, between the left and the right side of the beam. The height of the cross-section is taken as the height of the web only. Second order theory is utilised and the structure is analysed both with ASE and STAR2.

The results, calculated both with ASE and STAR2, converge to the same solution as the number of elements increas- es. Their deviation arises from the fact that ASE uses an exponential interpolation based on area and inertia as well as numerical integration of the stiffness, while STAR2 uses the geometric mean value of the stiffness. The first is slightly too stiff, the latter is too soft and therefore resulting on the safe side. With a total of twenty four beam elements, the results are reproduced adequately. However, the obtained solution deviates from the reference. The reason for that is the fact, that for second order effects, Rubin has taken an unfavourable constant normal force of −520.3 kN for the whole column. If that effect is accounted for, the results obtained with twenty four elements are: Table 40.4: Results with Constant Normal Force Number of ϕ E  E M A Elements [mrd] [mm] [MNm] - Ref.

Forces and moments, tending to cause instability of the mass, are compared to those tending to resist instabil- ity. Most procedures assume a two-dimensional cross-section and plane strain conditions for analysis. Successive assumptions are made regarding the potential slip surface until the most critical surface, i.e. lowest factor of safety, is found. If the shear resistance of the soil along the slip surface exceeds that necessary to provide equilibrium, the mass is stable. If the shear resistance is insufficient, the mass is unstable. The stability of the mass depends on its weight, the external forces acting on it, the shear strengths and pore water pressures along the slip surface, and the strength of any internal reinforcement crossing potential slip surfaces. The factor of safety is defined with respect to the shear strength of the soil as the ratio of the available shear strength to the shear strength required for equilibrium [39]: FS = be sher strength eqbrmsher stress (41.1) SOFiSTiK 2014 | VERiFiCATiON MANUAL 167 BE38: Calculation of Slope Stability by Phi-C Reduction The stability analysis according to Fellenius, i.e. ph − c reduction, is based on the investigation of the material’s shear strength in the limit state of the system, i.e. the shear strength that leads to failure of the system. In this method, the forces on the sides of the slice are neglected and the forces that operate are only the weight, the normal stress and shear stress on the base of the slice [40]. On the other hand, the Bishop’s Method is based on the assumption that the interslice forces are horizontal and the slip surface is circular. Forces are summed in the vertical direction. The resulting equilibrium equation is combined with the Mohr-Coulomb equation and the definition of the factor of safety to determine the forces on the base of the slice [39]. In SOFiSTiK, the safety factors according to ph −c reduction are defined as the ratio between available shear strength and shear strength in the limit state of the system [41]: η ϕ = tn ϕ np tn ϕ t (41.2) η c = c np c t (41.3) where c is the cohesion and ϕ the friction angle. The ph − c reduction stability analysis is based on an incremental reduction of the shear strength adopting a synchronized increase of the safety factors η = η ph = η c . The reached safety η at system failure represents the computational safety against stability failure. 41.3 Model and Results The properties of the model [42] are presented in Table 41.1. The embankment has a slope of 1 : 2, a height of 4.5 m and a width of 9.0 m. The initial stresses are generated using gravity loading. Then the embankment is subjected to the ph − c reduction. Plane strain conditions are assumed.

The reference safety factor is given by Bishop’s slip circle method as 1.56 [42]. The calculated factor of safety is in very good agreement with the reference solution. 41.4 Conclusion This example verifies the stability of a soil mass and the determination of the factor of safety. The results, obtained with the ph − c reduction method, are compared to the widely acclaimed Bishop’ method and is shown that the behaviour of the model is captured accurately. 41.5 Literature [39] USACE Engineering and Design: Slope Stability.

For the linear case, the structure is subjected to the uniform load only, whereas for the nonlinear case, all defined loads including the imperfection are considered.

For the nonlinear case, in order to account for the effect of the normal force and the imperfections on the determination of the resulting forces and moments, second order theory has to be used. The moments at nodes 1 − 4 are determined in dependency of the column characteristic ratio ε =  c _ N/ E c , giving the influence of the normal force N = F + q/ 2 with respect to the column properties, length  c and bending stiffness E c . Further information on the analytical formulas can be found in Schneider [43]. 43.3 Model and Results The properties of the model are defined in Table 43.1. The frame has an initial geometrical imperfection at the columns of linear distribution ψ 0 = 1/ 200, with a maximum value of 25 mm at nodes 3 and 4.

This problem is one of the most severe tests for both inextensional bending and complex membrane states of stress [46] . SOFiSTiK 2014 | VERiFiCATiON MANUAL 179 BE41: Linear Pinched Cylinder 44.3 Model and Results The properties of the model are defined in Table 44.1. The geometric parameters and the material are all dimensionless. The compressive point load p = 1.0 is applied radially and in opposite directions at the middle nodes of the cylinder, as shown in Fig. 44.1. Using symmetry, only one-eighth of the cylinder needs to be modeled, as shown in Fig. 44.2. For the simplified model only one fourth of the load p∗ is applied at the the upper middle node, as it can be visualised in Fig. 44.2. The end of the cylinder is supported by a rigid diaphragm [47], while at the two edges of the cylinder, parallel to the - and y- axis, symmetry support conditions are employed. In the plane of middle of the cylinder, the displacements in the longitudial direction, as well as the rotations around - and y- axis are fixed. The example allows the verification of the calculation of thin shells with increasingly refined regular meshes.

A constant area load p = 1000 kN/ m 2 is applied, as shown in Fig. 45.1.

Plane stress conditions are assumed, with two degrees of freedom,   ,  y , per node, and a line load p = 200.0 kN/ m is applied at both vertical ends. The length of the panel is considered to be large enough in order to avoid any disturbances in the area of the hole, due to the loaded ends.

This element is called conforming, because the displacements and the rotations between elements do not have any jumps. The results at the gravity centre of the element represent the actual internal force variation fairly well, while the results at the corners are relatively useless, especially the ones at the edges or at the corners of a region. On the other hand the non-conforming elements, are based one the idea of describing more stress states through additional functions that their value is zero SOFiSTiK 2014 | VERiFiCATiON MANUAL 189 BE43: Panel with Circular Hole at all nodes. As a rule, these functions lead to a substantial improvement of the results, however, they violate the continuity of displacements between elements and thus they are called non-conforming. 46.4 Conclusion The example allows the verification of the calculation of plane stress problems and the convergence be- haviour of quadrilateral elements. For both types of elements, the calculated results convergence rather fast to the predetermined precise analytical solution, within acceptable tolerance range. Furthermore, it is evident that the unstructured mesh, which is a more often choice in practice, gives results which are in very good agreement with the analytical solution. 46.5 Literature [50] VDI 6201 Beispiel: Softwaregest ¨ utze Tragwerksberechnung - Beispiel Scheibe mit kreisf ¨ ormigem Loch - Konvergenztest f ¨ ur Scheibenelemente, Kategorie 1: Mechanische Grundlagen.

The soil layer is subjected to an uniform loading of the intensity p 0 acting on the surface. Base of the soil is rigidly fixed while the sides are laterally constrained. Only the soil surface is allowed to drain. Geometry, load and boundary conditions are depicted in Fig. 48.1. The soil material is elastic, isotropic and saturated with water.

The solution assumes that the soil is saturated with water, the soil and water are non-deformable, the volume change takes place only on the account of the water drainage and the Darcy’s filtration law applies. Then the differential equation of the one-dimensional process of consolidation for the excess water pressure p e can be written as [55]: ∂p e ∂t = c  ∂ 2 p e ∂z 2 , (48.1) where: c  = k · E s / γ  coefficient of consolidation, SOFiSTiK 2014 | VERiFiCATiON MANUAL 195 BE45: One-Dimensional Soil Consolidation E s stiffness modulus, k coefficient of permeability, γ  unit weight of water, h soil thickness, z = h − y elevation.

The material nonlinear behaviour of the beam is examined and compared to test results.   P b h Figure 49.1: Problem Description 49.2 Reference Solution Materially nonlinear analysis is utilised more and more for the structural design in concrete construction. It is often overlooked that for such analysis, both in-depth knowledge of the computational algorithms as well as the behavior of the concrete in cracked condition, are required. The following simple example will serve for verification of material nonlinear calculations of reinforced concrete beams. It will also highlight the unavoidable variations in practice. Therefore, the individual test results are given below and not only the mean values. The load-displacement curves of seven identical concrete beams, which were prefabricated almost at the same time and under the same controlled conditions, are graphed below. As a reference solution, these load-displacement curves of the test beams are used. 49.3 Model and Results The properties of the model [56] are defined in Table 49.1. The simply supported beam is shown in Fig. 49.1, as well as the dimensions and the reinforcement of the beams. The total length of the span is  tot = 3.0 m. The square rectangular cross-section with edge lengths of 20 cm is reinforced by four longitudinal bars of 10 mm and stirrups of 6-15 cm. For this example the stirrups are not influential and can be neglected. The load is applied at the midspan and the beam is loaded to failure. Self weight is accounted for. The material properties of the concrete, B 35 or equivalently a C 35, were determined on a total of twelve cylinders 150/ 300, and are given in Table 49.1. The concrete cover of the longitudinal reinforcement is c , = 2.4 cm. The reinforcing steel is a BST 500 S, following a SOFiSTiK 2014 | VERiFiCATiON MANUAL 199 BE46: Material Nonlinear Analysis of Reinforced Concrete Beam stress-strain law, as shown in Fig. 49.2. The results are presented in Fig. 49.4. The deflection in the middlespan is recorded and plotted versus the load. The expectance is for the numerical calculations to fall into the gray shaded area, which bounds the curves of the seven tests beams. Of particular importance, are the onset of cracking, the slope after the completion of the cracking and by the yielding of the reinforcement, as well as the limit load.

The pushover curve is identified and compared to the reference solution, as described in Chopra [57]. Figure 50.1: Problem Description 50.2 Reference Solution In this Benchmark the interest is focused in the retrieval of the pushover curve. The steps involved in this process are described schematically in Figure 50.2. Important is the definition of the pushover lateral load case pattern. The pushover analysis is performed by subjecting the structure to this monotonically increasing load pattern of lateral forces. Here the first three eigenmodes of the structure will be used. Choosing the characteristic force and displacement of the structure, a so called pushover curve of the multi-degree-of-freedom (MDOF) system can be obtained. The force, here denoted as V b , is usually base-shear, while the displacement is a displacement of the characteristic point on the structure  cnod , also called the roof displacement and the control node displacement.

The model utilised in this Benchmark consists of the benchmark structure for the SAC project, as has been described by Gupta and Krawinkler [58], Chopra and Goel [57] and FEMA [59]. “The 9-story structure, was designed by Brandow & Johnston Associates for the SAC2 Phase II Steel Project. Although not actually constructed, this structure meets seismic code and represents typical medium-rise buildings designed for the Los Angeles, California, region. The building is square in plan and rises nine floors above ground in elevation. The bays are 9.15 m on center, in both directions, with five bays each in the north-south (N-S) and east-west (E-W) directions. The buildings lateral load- resisting system is composed of steel perimeter moment-resisting frames (MRFS) with simple (simple hinged connection) framing on the farthest south E-W frame. The columns are steel wide-flange sec- tions. The levels of the 9-story building are numbered with respect to the ground level, with the ninth level being the roof. The building has a basement level, denoted B-1. The column lines employ two-tier construction, i.e., monolithic column pieces are connected every two levels beginning with the first level. Column splices, which are seismic (tension) splices to carry bending and uplift forces, are located on the first, third, fifth, and seventh levels at h s = 1.83 m above the center-line of the beam to column joint. The column bases are modeled as pinned and secured to the ground (B-1). Concrete foundation walls and surrounding soil are assumed to restrain the structure at the ground level from horizontal displace- ment. The floor system is composed of steel wide-flange beams in acting composite action with the floor slab. Each frame resists one half of the seismic mass associated with the entire structure. The seismic mass of the structure is due to various components of the structure. The model is based on centerline dimensions of the bare frame in which beams and columns extend from centerline to centerline. The strength, dimension, and shear distortion of panel zones are neglected.” [57] “Shear deformations in beam and column elements are neglected. Plastic zones in beams and columns are modeled as point hinges. The hysteretic behavior at plastic hinge locations is described by a bilinear moment-rotation diagram. All elements have 3% strain hardening. Expected rather than nominal yield strength values are used (49.2 ks for A 36 steel and 57.6 ks for A 50 steel).

The specimen is subjected to different levels of triaxial confining stresses and the results are compared to those of the experimental tests and numerical simulations, as described in Wehnert [60]. D H σ 3 σ 1 Figure 51.1: Problem Description 51.2 Reference Solution In this example two soil models are utilised, the Mohr-Coulomb (MC) and the Hardening Soil (HS) model. Further details on these two models can be found in Benchmarks 20 and 21. The choice of the appropriate model for the soil is of a significant importance. For example, MC mod- el can significantly overestimate the undrained shear strength for a normally consolidated soil. More advanced models can provide better estimate for the undrained strength than the MC model. In par- ticular, the HS model is able to represent the change of the excess pore water pressure occurring under undrained shear loading conditions, providing more realistic effective stress paths and values for undrained shear strength. However, the results of the analysis with the Hardening Soil model are very sensitive to the used model parameters and the choice of the dilatancy model. Therefore, in this example for the HS model different dilatancy formulations are tested and their influence on the result examined. A well-established stress dilatancy theory is described by Rowe [61], where the so-called mobilized SOFiSTiK 2014 | VERiFiCATiON MANUAL 209 BE48: Triaxial Consolidated Undrained (CU) Test dilatancy angle ψ m is defined as sinψ m = sinφ m − sinφ cs 1 − sinφ m sinφ cs (51.1) Therein, the critical state friction angle φ cs marks the transition between contractive (small stress ratios with φ m < φ cs ) and dilatant (higher stress ratios with φ m > φ cs ) plastic flow. The mobilized friction angle φ m in Equation 51.1 is computed according to sinφ m = σ 1 − σ 3 2c · cot φ − σ 1 − σ 3 (51.2) At failure, when φ m ≡ φ, also the dilatancy angle reaches its final value ψ m ≡ ψ. Accordingly, from Equation 51.1 the critical state friction angle can be derived as sinφ cs = sinφ − sinψ 1 − sinφsinψ (51.3) It has been recognized that in some cases the Rowe’s model for dilatancy angles (Eq. 51.1) can over- estimate the contractive behavior of the soil at low mobilized friction angles, φ m < φ cs . As a remedy, several researchers have developed modified formulations based on the original Rowe’s model. Some of these models which are implemented in SOFiSTiK are described below. One of the models which does not require additional input parameters is the model according to Soreide [62] which modifies the Rowe’s formulation by using the scaling factor sinφ m / sinφ sinψ m = sinφ m − sinφ cs 1 − sinφ m sinφ cs · sinφ m sinφ . (51.4) Wehnert [60] proposed a model based on a lower cut-off value ψ 0 for the modification of the Rowe’s formulation from Eq. 51.1 at low mobilized friction angles sinψ m = _ _ _ _ _ sinψ 0 ; 0 < ψ m ≤ ψ Roe m sinφ m − sinφ cs 1 − sinφ m sinφ cs ; ψ Roe m < ψ m ≤ ψ . (51.5) This dilatancy model obviously requires a specification of an additional parameter, ψ 0 . 210 VERiFiCATiON MANUAL | SOFiSTiK 2014 BE48: Triaxial Consolidated Undrained (CU) Test 5 15 25 φ = 35 -20 -10 0 ψ = 10 20 ψ 0 φ cs φ m [ ◦ ] ψ m [ ◦ ] Rowe Soreide Wehnert, ψ 0 = −3 ◦ Constant Figure 51.2: Comparison of models for mobilized dilatancy angle ψ m implemented in SOFiSTiK for φ = 35 ◦ and ψ = 10 ◦ 51.3 Model and Results The properties of the model are presented in Table 51.1. Two material models are considered: the Mohr- Coulomb and the Hardening Soil, which is combined with the different dilatancy models as described by the formulations presented in Section 51.2. For the model according to Wehnert (Eq. 51.5) additional parameter, dilatancy ψ 0 at low stress ratios, is used. The undrained calculation is conducted in the form of effective stresses with effective shear parameters (c , φ ) and stiffness parameters. Skempton’s parameter B ≈ 0.9832 (corresponding undrained Poisson’s ratio is ν  = 0.495) is considered to describe the incompressibility of the pore water and saturated soil [60]. The analysis is carried out using an axisymmetric model. Two confining stress levels are considered, σ c = 200 and 300 kP. The undrained triaxial test on loose Hostun-RF sand is used as a reference. More information about the Hostun-RF sand can be found in Wehnert [60].

Figures 51.3 - 51.8, also include the results of the numerical simulations and of the experimental tests from Wehnert [60] (Wehnert, Exp. 1 and Exp. 2). On a p − q diagram, apart from the effective stress paths (ESP), the total stress paths (TSP) as well as the Mohr-Coulomb SOFiSTiK 2014 | VERiFiCATiON MANUAL 211 BE48: Triaxial Consolidated Undrained (CU) Test failure condition (MC failure) based on the used shear parameters, c and φ , are displayed. First the numerical simulation results by Wehnert [60] are compared to the results from the laboratory tests (Exp. 1 and Exp. 2). Although the oedometer and the drained triaxial tests (see also Benchmark 49) show good agreement with the results from the laboratory tests, the results from the undrained triaxial tests show deviation from the experimental results (see Figs. 51.3 - 51.8) 1 . The difference comes mainly as a result of the used dilatancy model (Eq. 51.5) and the choice of the model parameters, i.e. the peak dilatancy angle ψ and the lower cut-off dilatancy angle ψ 0 . Comparing the results of the development of the deviatoric stress q and the excess pore water pressure p e between the experiment and the calculation, one can notice a considerable difference, both for the confining stress level of 200 kP as well as for the level of 300 kP (Figs. 51.4, 51.5, 51.7 and 51.8). As explained in [60], the test sample with confining stress of 200 kP behaves significantly more dilatant than the sample with the confining stress of 300 kP. Since only one material model has been used to model the soil, only one peak dilatancy angle can be used to represent the dilatancy effects of both test cases. This peak dilatancy angle of ψ = 2 ◦ represents therefore a compromise, leading to a underestimation of the results for a test with a smaller confining stress level and to overestimation of the results with larger confining stress level at higher mobilized friction angels. Further differences arise from the chosen dilatancy model and the used lower cut-off dilatancy angle ψ 0 = −4 ◦2 . Due to the presence of the negative mobilized dilatancy angle (ψ m < 0) at low stress levels, the soil has the tendency to decrease its volume (contraction) under increase of the deviatoric stress q (shear). However, since the soil is under undrained conditions, the volumetric strains cannot develop, and as a result the excess pore pressure increases under shear. The increase of the excess pore pressure means that the effective stresses will reduce (ESP lines curve to the left in the p− q plot, Figs. 51.3 and 51.6). With the increase of the stress level, the contractive behavior turns to dilatant, meaning that the negative rate of excess pore pressures (pore water under-pressure) will arise, excess pore pressures decrease and hence the effective stresses increase. This transition from contractant to dilatant behavior occurs when the mobilized friction angle φ m becomes larger than the phase transition angle φ ƒ which is approximately equal to the critical state friction angle φ cs (see Fig. 51.2). As further noted by Wehnert [60], due to the fact that mobilized dilatancy angle at low stress levels is slightly heigher and kept constant (ψ m = ψ 0 for 0 ≤ ψ m ≤ ψ Roe m , Eq. 51.5), the pore water under-pressures are overestimated. Next the SOFiSTiK results obtained using the same soil model and dilatancy formulation as in [60] (HS- Wehnert) can be compared with the reference numerical simulation results (Wehnert). They show good agreement. Finally, in other to illustrate the effect that the chosen dilatancy model can have on the results of the undrained soil, the results of the computation using the hardening soil model with different dilatancy formulations from Section 51.2 are included. 1 Note also that the experimental test results for different samples of the same soil deviate significantly from each other. 2 The used value ψ 0 = −4 ◦ is much higher than the values obtained from experimental tests, which range from −13 ◦ to −21 ◦ . The reason for choosing this higher value is due to the fact that the experimental test used to obtain the dilatancy parameters involve not only shear but also some normal stress application to the test samples [60]. 212 VERiFiCATiON MANUAL | SOFiSTiK 2014 BE48: Triaxial Consolidated Undrained (CU) Test 51.3.1 Hostun-RF Sand, σ c = 200 kN/ m 2 0 50 100 150 200 250 300 0 50 100 150 200 250 300 350 400 p, p [kN/ m 2 ] q [ k N / m 2 ] MC failure TSP ESP, MC ESP, HS-Rowe ESP, HS-Cons ESP, HS-Soreide ESP, HS-Wehnert ESP, Wehnert [60] ESP, Exp. 1 [60] ESP, Exp. 2 [60] Figure 51.3: Effective stress path curve (q-p) 0 5 10 15 0 50 100 150 200 250 300 350 400 ϵ 1 [%] q [ k N / m 2 ] MC HS-Rowe HS-Cons HS-Soreide HS-Wehnert Wehnert [60] Exp.1 [60] Exp.2 [60] Figure 51.4: Deviatoric stress - axial strain curve (q-ϵ 1 ) SOFiSTiK 2014 | VERiFiCATiON MANUAL 213 BE48: Triaxial Consolidated Undrained (CU) Test 0 5 10 15 0 50 100 150 200 ϵ 1 [%] p  e [ k N / m 2 ] MC HS-Rowe HS-Cons HS-Soreide HS-Wehnert Wehnert [60] Exp. 1 [60] Exp. 2 [60] Figure 51.5: Excess porewater pressure - axial strain curve (p e -ϵ 1 ) 51.3.2 Hostun-RF Sand, σ c = 300 kN/ m 2 0 50 100 150 200 250 300 350 400 450 0 50 100 150 200 250 300 350 400 p, p [kN/ m 2 ] q [ k N / m 2 ] MC failure TSP ESP, MC ESP, HS-Rowe ESP, HS-Cons ESP, HS-Soreide ESP, HS-Wehnert ESP, Wehnert [60] ESP, Exp. 1 [60] Figure 51.6: Effective stress path curve (q-p) 214 VERiFiCATiON MANUAL | SOFiSTiK 2014 BE48: Triaxial Consolidated Undrained (CU) Test 0 5 10 15 20 0 50 100 150 200 250 300 350 400 450 ϵ 1 [%] q [ k N / m 2 ] MC HS-Rowe HS-Cons HS-Soreide HS-Wehnert Wehnert [60] Exp.1 [60] Figure 51.7: Deviatoric stress - axial strain curve (q-ϵ 1 ) 0 5 10 15 0 50 100 150 200 250 300 ϵ 1 [%] p  e [ k N / m 2 ] MC HS-Rowe HS-Cons HS-Soreide HS-Wehnert Wehnert [60] Exp. 1 [60] Figure 51.8: Excess porewater pressure - axial strain curve (p e -ϵ 1 ) SOFiSTiK 2014 | VERiFiCATiON MANUAL 215 BE48: Triaxial Consolidated Undrained (CU) Test 0 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 −30 −20 −10 0 φ m [ ◦ ] ψ m [ ◦ ] HS-Rowe HS-Cons HS-Soreide HS-Wehnert Figure 51.9: Mobilised dilatancy angle - friction angle curve (ψ m -φ m ) 51.4 Conclusion This example concerning the consolidated undrained triaxial test of a loose sand soil verifies that the Hardening Soil material model in combination with an appropriate choice of model parameters and dilatancy model is able to capture important behavior characteristics of the undrained soil.

Figures 52.2 - 52.7, also include the results of the numerical simulations and of the experimental tests from Wehnert [60] (Wehnert, Exp. 1 and Exp. 2). On a p − q diagram the Mohr-Coulomb failure condition (MC failure) based on the used shear parameters, c and φ , is also displayed. If we first analyse the reference curves from Wehnert [60], we will notice, that the agreement between the numerical simulation and the experimental tests is quite good. Comparing the SOFiSTiK results for the HS model with the dilatancy model acc. to Wehnert (HS- Wehnert) with the reference numerical results from Wehnert [60], we can notice that the stress paths p-q are captured exactly for both σ c -stress levels. Accordingly, the deviatoric stress q versus the axial strain ε 1 curve fits very well to the reference results. For the case of the strain curves some deviation in results is identified and it seems that the Soreide dilatancy model shows better agreement with the simulation results from Wehnert. 218 VERiFiCATiON MANUAL | SOFiSTiK 2014 BE49: Triaxial Drained Test 52.3.1 Hostun-RF Sand, σ c = 100 kN/ m 2 0 100 200 300 400 500 600 0 100 200 300 400 500 600 p, p [kN/ m 2 ] q [ k N / m 2 ] MC failure MC HS-Rowe HS-Cons HS-Soreide HS-Wehnert Wehnert Exp. 1 Figure 52.2: Effective stress path curve (q-p) 0 5 10 15 20 0 50 100 150 200 250 300 350 400 ϵ 1 [%] q [ k N / m 2 ] MC HS-Rowe HS-Cons HS-Soreide HS-Wehnert Wehnert Exp.1 Figure 52.3: Deviatoric stress - axial strain curve (q-ϵ 1 ) SOFiSTiK 2014 | VERiFiCATiON MANUAL 219 BE49: Triaxial Drained Test 0 5 10 15 20 0.000 0.200 0.400 0.600 0.800 1.000 1.200 1.400 1.600 1.800 2.000 ϵ 1 [%] ϵ  [ % ] MC HS-Rowe HS-Cons HS-Soreide HS-Wehnert Wehnert Exp. 1 Figure 52.4: Volumetric strain - axial strain curve (ϵ  -ϵ 1 ) 52.3.2 Hostun-RF Sand, σ c = 300 kN/ m 2 0 100 200 300 400 500 600 700 0 100 200 300 400 500 600 700 800 p, p [kN/ m 2 ] q [ k N / m 2 ] MC failure MC HS-Rowe HS-Cons HS-Soreide HS-Wehnert Wehnert Exp. 1 Figure 52.5: Effective stress path curve (q-p) 220 VERiFiCATiON MANUAL | SOFiSTiK 2014 BE49: Triaxial Drained Test 0 5 10 15 20 0 100 200 300 400 500 600 700 800 ϵ 1 [%] q [ k N / m 2 ] MC HS-Rowe HS-Cons HS-Soreide HS-Wehnert Wehnert Exp.1 Figure 52.6: Deviatoric stress - axial strain curve (q-ϵ 1 ) 0 5 10 15 20 0.000 0.200 0.400 0.600 0.800 1.000 1.200 1.400 1.600 1.800 ϵ 1 [%] ϵ  [ % ] MC HS-Rowe HS-Cons HS-Soreide HS-Wehnert Wehnert Exp. 1 Figure 52.7: Volumetric strain - axial strain curve (ϵ  -ϵ 1 ) SOFiSTiK 2014 | VERiFiCATiON MANUAL 221 BE49: Triaxial Drained Test 0 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 −30 −20 −10 0 φ m [ ◦ ] ψ m [ ◦ ] HS-Rowe HS-Cons HS-Soreide HS-Wehnert Figure 52.8: Mobilised dilatancy angle - friction angle curve (ψ m -φ m ) 52.4 Conclusion This example, concerning the triaxial test of a loose consolidated undrained sand soil, verifies that the results obtained by the Hardening Soil material model with a cut-off in the dilatancy are in a good agreement with the solution given by Wehnert [60]. 52.5 Literature [60] M.

The full-plane is assumed to be elastic, homogeneous, isotropic, without material damping which stretches to infinity and it is modeled with the help of the Scaled Boundary Finite Elements (SBFE). Plane-strain condition is considered. Load is in a form of a triangular impulse and applied on the cavity wall (Fig. 53.1b). Radial displacement response of the cavity wall has been computed and compared to the analytical solution. r 0 p(t) (a) Circular cavity embedded in a full- plane ¯ t = t · c s / r 0 3 1.5 0 p( ¯ t) p 0 (b) Pressure load Figure 53.1: Problem Definition 53.2 Reference Solution This problem is essentially a one dimensional problem which has an analytical solution [63]. The force- displacement relationship for this problem in frequency domain is given by P(ω) = S ∞ (ω) ·  r (ω) , (53.1) where ω = 2πƒ represents the circular frequency, P(ω) is the total force applied on the cavity wall,  r (ω) is the radial displacement and S ∞ (ω) is the dynamic-stiffness coefficient. SOFiSTiK 2014 | VERiFiCATiON MANUAL 223 BE50: A Circular Cavity Embedded in a Full-Plane Under Impulse Pressure The dynamic-stiffness coefficient for this particular problem has an analytical expression and it reads S ∞ ( 0 ) = 2πG 0 1 − 2ν · _ _ 2(1 − ν) λ − 1 − F λ − 2ν + 2(1 − ν) H (2) F+1 (λ 0 ) H (2) F (λ 0 )  0 _ _ , (53.2) where G 0 shear modulus, ν Poisson’s ratio, ρ mass density, c s = _ G/ ρ shear wave velocity, c p = c s _ (2 − 2ν)/ (1 − 2n) P-wave velocity,  0 = ωr 0 / c p dimensionless frequency, λ = 2/ (2 − α) coefficient, α non-homogeneity parameter of elasticity (α = 0 for the homo- geneous case), H (2) k the second kind Hankel function of the order k, F = _ _ (λ − 1) 2 − λ 2 ν(α + 1) − 1 1 − ν order of the Hankel function.

(53.3) The radial displacement response in frequency domain  r (ω) is obtained by first making the Fourier transformation of the total triangular impulse load P(ω) (Fig. 53.1b) and then dividing it with the dynamic- stiffness coefficient S ∞ (ω) (Eq. 53.1). Finally the displacement response is transformed in the time domain ( r (t)) using the inverse Fourier transformation. 53.3 Model and Results Material, geometry and loading properties of the model are summarized in the Table 53.1.

The elastic demand and capacity diagrams are assumed to be know. S d S dp S  S p El. Demand Diagram Performance Point Capacity Diagram Demand Diagram Figure 54.1: Determination of the performance point PP (S dp , S p ) 54.2 Reference Solution The reference solution is provided in [66]. Assuming that the elastic demand diagram (5% elastic response spectrum in ADRS format 1 ) and the capacity diagram are known, it is possible to determine the performance point PP (S dp , S p ) (Fig. 54.1). The procedure comprises of a series of trial calculations (trial performance points PP t (S dp,t , S p,t )), in which the equivalent inelastic single degree of freedom system (SDOF), represented by the capac- ity diagram, is idealized with the equivalent inelastic SDOF system with a bi-linear force-deformation relationship. The response in form of the performance point PP is then calculated from the inelastic response spectrum (demand diagram). The computation stops when the performance point PP is within a tolerance of a trial performance point PP t . Detailed description of this procedure can be found in [67], [68], [66] and [37]. In the reference example [66] the bi-linear idealization of the capacity is assumed to be independent of 1 ADRS = Spectral Acceleration S  - Spectral Displacement S d format SOFiSTiK 2014 | VERiFiCATiON MANUAL 227 BE51: Pushover Analysis: Performance Point Calculation by EC8 Procedure the performance point and it is performed at the beginning of the analysis. This eliminates the need for the iterations and the solution of the problem can be obtained in a single calculation step.

The procedure to calculated the performance point is illustrated in Fig. 54.2 and can be summarized as follows [37]: 1. Determine the period of the idealized system T ∗ = T y from the known PY (S dy , S y ): T ∗ = T y = 2π · _ _ _ S dy S y ; (54.1) 2. Calculate the elastic spectral response PE (S de , S e ) of the idealized equivalent SDOF system with the period T ∗ = T y from the given 5%-damped elastic response spectrum (Fig. 54.2); 3. Calculate the yield strength reduction factor R y : R y = S e S y ; (54.2) 4. Calculate ductility μ: μ = _ _ _ (R y − 1) · T C T ∗ + 1 for T ∗ < T C R y for T ∗ ≥ T C ; (54.3) 5. Determine the performance point PP (S dp , S p ) from the inelastic design spectrum: S dp = μ · S dy = μ · S de R y , (54.4a) S p = S e (T ∗ ) R y . (54.4b) 228 VERiFiCATiON MANUAL | SOFiSTiK 2014 BE51: Pushover Analysis: Performance Point Calculation by EC8 Procedure 54.3 Model and Results In order to verify the analysis procedure for the determination of the performance point, a test case has been set up in such a way that it comprises of a SDOF with a unit mass and a non-linear spring element. It is obvious that for such an element the quantities governing the transformation from the original system to the equivalent inelastic SDOF system must be equal to one, i.e. ϕ cnod = 1 ;  = 1 ; m = 1 , (54.5) where ϕ cnod is the eigenvector value at control node,  is the modal participation factor and m is the generalized modal mass. Writing now the equations which govern the conversion of the pushover curve to capacity diagram, we obtain [37] S d =  cnod ϕ cnod ·  =  cnod , (54.6a) S  = V b  2 · m = V b , (54.6b) where V b is the base shear and  cnod is the control node displacement. Since the original system is a SDOF system, V b and  cnod are nothing else but the force in spring P and the displacement of the unit mass , respectively. It follows further that the force-displacement work law assigned to the spring element corresponds to the capacity diagram in ADRS format, with the force P and displacement  equal to S  and S d , respectively. The bi-linear idealization of the capacity diagram used in the reference example is defined by two points, whose coordinates are listed in the Table 54.1 2 . According to the analysis above, these points can be used to define the force- displacement work law P −  of the non-linear spring element (Fig. 54.3).

The reference calculation steps are presented below and the results are given in Table 62.2. Then, the same section is designed with repsect to EN 1992-1-1:2004 [77]. The same angle θ(= 1.60) is chosen, as calculated with respect to DIN EN 1992-1-1:2004, in order to compare the results. If no θ value is input, then the calculation starts with the upper limit cot θ = 2.5 and through an optimization process the right angle is selected. In this case, the reinforcement is determined with cot θ = 2.5, giving a shear reinforcement of 7.80 cm 2 / m. Also in order to demonstrate that the correct value of V Rd,m = 734.4 kN (reference value) with repsect to DIN EN 1992-1-1:2004 is calculated in SOFiSTiK, we input a design shear force of 734.3 delivering a shear reinforcement, but when a value of 734.4 is input then AQB gives the warning of ’no shear design possible’ showing that the maximum shear resistance is exceeded.

The reference calculation steps are presented below and the results are given in Table 63.2. Table 63.1: Model Properties Material Properties Geometric Properties Loading C 30/ 37 h = 60.0 cm V Ed = 450 kN B 500A d = 53.0 cm d 1 = 7.0 cm b = 30 cm b eƒ ƒ = 180 cm h ƒ = 15 cm A s1 = 15 cm 2 The intermediate steps of calculating the required reinforcement are also validated in this example. First we calculate the design value for the shear resistance V Rd,c for members not requiring shear reinforcement. It gives a value of V Rd,c = 93.76 kN. Checking the results in AQB, we can see that SOFiSTiK outputs also V rd1,c = 93.76. Just to test this result, if we input a shear force of V Ed = 93.75 just below the value for V Rd,c , AQB will not output any value for cot θ and the minimum reinforcement will be printed (M). If we now give a value of V Ed = 93.77 just larger than V Rd,c , then AQB will start increasing cot θ and the minimum reinforcement will be printed. If we continue increasing V Ed , AQB will continue increasing cot θ until it reaches the upper limit of cot θ = 2.5 with using the minimum reinforcement. If now the minimum reinforcement is exceeded, AQB starts calculating a value for the required reinforcement. Another option to test this limit of V Rd,c = 93.76, would be to keep cot θ = 1.0 274 VERiFiCATiON MANUAL | SOFiSTiK 2014 DCE-EN7: Design of a T-section for Shear and now with V Ed = 93.77, AQB calculates a value for the required reinforcement larger than the minimum reinforcement. For the maximum value of the angle θ, hence cot θ = 1.0, the maximum value allowed for V Ed can be calculated as 642.23 kN. This can be found in AQB results as the V rd2,c = 642.23 for the case of cot θ = 1.0. Giving as an input a shear force just above this value V Ed = 642.24 triggers a warning ”Shear design not possible”. Next step is the validation of V Rd,m . When the design shear force V Ed exceeds V Rd,m then cot θ must be decreased so that V Ed = V Rd,m . The reference result for V Rd,m is 442.92 kN. Inputing a value just below that, should give a cot θ = 2.5, whereas for a value just above should give cot θ < 2.5. This can be verified easily in AQB output for V Ed = 442.91 and 442.93 kN, respectively. Also the minimum reinforcement is calculated exactly by AQB with a value of 2.63 cm 2 / m.

The content of this problem is covered by the following parts of EN 1993-1-1:2004 [78]: • Structural steel (Section 3.2 ) • Classification of cross-sections (Section 5.5) • Cross-section requirements for plastic global analysis (Section 5.6) • Resistance of cross-sections (Section 6.2) • Buckling resistance of members (Section 6.3) SOFiSTiK 2014 | VERiFiCATiON MANUAL 321 DCE-EN14: Classification of Steel Cross-sections A diagrammatic representation of the four classes of section is given in Fig. 70.2, where a cross-section is subjected to an increasing major axis bending moment until failure [79]. Class 1: Fullly plastic moment is reached Class 2: Fullly plastic moment reached but unloading occurs Class 3: Partial yielding occurs, parts of section still elastic Class 4: Local buckling causes unloading in the elastic range Curvature Bending Moment Fully Plastic Moment Figure 70.2: Idealized Moment Curvature Behaviour for Four Classes of Cross-sections 70.3 Model and Results The I-section, a UB 457x152x74, with properties as defined in Table 70.1, is to be classified for bending and compression, with respect to EN 1993-1-1:2005 [78]. For the compression case, an axial load of N = 3000 kN is applied and for the bending case a moment of M y = 500 kNm. In AQB the classification of the cross-sections is done taking into account the stress levels and the respective design request. Thus, a Class 1 cross-section can be reached, only if a nonlinear design (plastic-plastic) is requested and if the loading is such as to cause the yield stress to be exceeded. Therefore, in order to derive the higher Class possible for this cross-section, we consider these loads, which will cause higher stresses than the yield stress. The calculation steps are presented below and the results are given in Table 70.2.

The insignificant deviation at the utilisation level of the plastic moment resistance ( Util. level M y,red = 0.879) arises from the fact that in EN 1993-1-1:2005 approximate formulas are given for the contribution of the area parts of the I-section to the allowance of the shear and the axial force over the moment resistance.

The time dependent losses are calculated, considering the reduction of stress caused by the deformation of concrete due to creep and shrinkage, under the permanent loads. M y N p A p h z p Figure 74.1: Problem Description 74.2 Reference Solution This example is concerned with the calculation of creep and shrinkage on a prestressed concrete cs, subject to bending and prestress force. The content of this problem is covered by the following parts of DIN EN 1992-1-1:2004 [72]: • Creep and Shrinkage (Section 3.1.4) • Annex B: Creep and Shrinkage (Section B.1, B.2) • Time dependent losses of prestress for pre- and post-tensioning (Section 5.10.6) The time dependant losses may be calculated by considering the following two reductions of stress [72]: • due to the reduction of strain, caused by the deformation of concrete due to creep and shrinkage, under the permanent loads • the reduction of stress in the steel due to the relaxation under tension. In this Benchmark the stress loss due to creep and shrinkage will be examined. SOFiSTiK 2014 | VERiFiCATiON MANUAL 345 DCE-EN18: Creep and Shrinkage Calculation of a Rectangular Prestressed Concrete CS 74.3 Model and Results Benchmark 17 is here extended for the case of creep and shrinkage developing on a prestressed con- crete simply supported beam. The analysed system can be seen in Fig. 74.2, with properties as defined in Table 74.1. Further information about the tendon geometry and prestressing can be found in Bench- mark 17. The beam consists of a rectangular cs and is prestressed and loaded with its own weight. A calculation of the creep and shrinkage is performed in the middle of the span with respect to DIN EN 1992-1-1:2004 (German National Annex) [72], [73]. The calculation steps [75] are presented below and the results are given in Table 74.2 for the calculation with AQB. For CSM only the results of the creep coefficients and the final losses are given, since the calculation is performed in steps.
