Material nonlinearity for 3D beam

• Consideration of biaxial bending and normal force
• Contribution of the concrete between the cracks
• Consideration of different design approaches
• Automatic load determination
• Realistic evaluation of deformations and internal forces
• Consideration of non-prestressed and prestressed reinforcement

For analyses in the cracked state, the basic system of TRIMAS® and PONTI® can be enhanced by the option cracked concrete for spatial frameworks. The fully graphically interactive processing enables fast familiarisation and provides the following advantages:

• Simple input of the reinforcement in the bar cross section
• Application for DIN and EN
• Can be used for arbitrary spatial frame systems
• Analysis of spatial stability failure
• An ultimate load calculation is also possible for prestressed systems
• Economic component design via use of surplus capacities
• Evaluation of realistic deformations
