Analytical verification example

Fig. A1-1The simple plate system outlined above (edge lengths = 1 m, acute angle = 30 degrees) was investigated with a surface load in the z-direction of p = -0.7 \mathrm{kN/m^2} was investigated, taking into account an isotropic material (steel) with a modulus of elasticity of 210*10³ \mathrm{MN/m^2} and a Poisson’s ratio of 0.3. The thickness is 10 mm, and the plate is hinged at all four corners in the vertical direction.The problem is to find the maximum principal stress on the underside of the plate at point m (the centre of the plate).

Systemic validation example

E1.1Task descriptionA wall panel in an interior space is subjected to a uniformly distributed load at the top and bottom. The wall has an opening and is supported at both ends by two columns.The internal forces relevant to the design shall be determined in accordance with first-order theory.The following materials are used:C25/30 concreteB500B reinforcing steelE1.2SystemAbb.

Numerical verification example

In the following example, the stresses in the sections of a wall are determined under a constant load. The purpose of this example is to check whether the software programmes used are capable of calculating the stresses in accordance with section theory.The wall slab under consideration has a length of l = 5.52 m, a height of h = 1.20 m and a thickness of d = 0.1 m. The wall slab is supported at two points: Point A is supported both horizontally and vertically, whilst point B is supported only vertically. The support stresses are denoted by f1, f2 and f3. A constant uniform load of p = 20 kN/m…
