Challenge

Reinforcement Detailing of Beams from ETABS output

The ETABS file for a G+4 building is provided. Run the analysis and design the RCC Moment ResistingFrame. The following challenge deals specifically with two continuous beams in the 1st floor.

1) 3 span continuous beam along grid A
2) 7 span continuous beam along grid 3.

ANS:

AIM:

  • To carryout the analysis of the given Etabs model and to design the RCC moment resisting frame.
  • To provide the detailing of longitudinal and shear reinforcement for two continuous beams.
  • To provide the reasons of failure of middle span along grid A.

Introdution:

  • In this challange two beam detailing is done.
  • 3 span continous beam along the grid 3.
  • 7 span continous beam along the grid 3.

Then inorder to calculate the maximum shear force in any of the spans of the continuous beam, IS13920-2016, clause 6.3.3 (b) is followed which states that.

shear force capacity of a beam shall be more than larger of,

  • Factor shear force as per linear structural analysis.
  • Factor gravity shear force plus equilibrium shear force plastic hinge are formed at both ends of the beam.

Procedure:

Download the attachement given in challanges.

open E-TABS software.

open the download file.

  • After that again go to analysis and carry out the analysis of the model by choosing Run analysis option.
  • After analysis have been completed go to concrete frame design drop down and carry out the design of the beam by choosing start design/ check option.
  • After completion, reinforcement values are obtained from display design info option in Concrete frame design dropdown.

  • Now, we need to carry out the detailing of grid A and grid 3 continuous beams.
  • Initially detailing is done for grid A.
  • The maximum value of reinforcement at top is 2045mm^2 and at bottom is 1945mm^2.
  • Hence, provide 2 no.s of 32mm dia bars at top and bottom i.e 1608mm^2.
  • Then, we will have to provide additional one 25mm dia bar to satisfy the remaining.
  • Cover provided is 30mm.
  • The shear reinforcement is provided as 10mm dia bars @ 50mm c/c throughout the beam.
  • Now, detailing is carried out for grid 3:
  • The maximum value of reinforcement at top is 1940mm^2 and at bottom is 1501mm^2
  • Hence, provide 2 no.s of 32mm dia bars at top and bottom i.e 1608mm^2
  • Then, we will have to provide additional one 25mm dia bar to satisfy the remaining(only at the top`
  • Cover provided is 30mm.
  • The shear reinforcement is provided as 10mm dia bars @ 100mm c/c throughout the beam.
  • Go to concrete frame design
  • Drop down the cursor button and click on Design Display information.
  • In that select shear reinforcing option.
  • apply and click ok

2.The beam along the mid span why it fails at span.

HERE WE CAN SEE O/S means over cross section.

right click on that beam .

go to details.

and see the shear details.

O/S -45 shear stress due to shear force and torsion togethar exceedss maximum allowed.

shaer stress is 415.577 kn is maximum.

where as torsion is 0.0014kn-m in nominal.

Shear reinforcement of beam at grid -3

TOP REINFORCEMENT DETAILS AT GRID 3.

BOTTOM REINFORCEMENTDETAILS AT GRID 3.

click on define option.

click on load combination.

add new combination.

add dead ,live brickwall, floor finish as 1.2 .

and then clock ok

check the results for deformed shapes.

click on deformed shapes .

NOW COMING TO FINAL RESULT:

HENCE SHEAR REBAR CAN BE TAKEN AS 245KN IS OKAY. AS PER IS13920.
