  • WD = 50 LB/ft, WL = 60 lb/ft,
  • F’C = 4 ksi, Fy = 60 ksi,
  • hf = 6", B15 x 12

Steps:

  • Unit kft-F
  • New model = grid
    • X = 7, Y = 2, Z = 1; spacing
    • X = 10,
    • Y = 25

Define:

  • Define > Material,
    • Concrete, modify.
    • Fy = fys = 60ksi,
    • f’c = 4ksi
  • Define > frame section.
    • Add rectangular, name B15 * 12. Reinforcement,
    • Beam clear cover top = bottom = 2.5”
    • Name = slab
  • Define > Area sections,
    • Asec 1 modify,
    • thickness bending = membrane = 6”.
  • Define > load cases, add live load.
  • Define > add default combo check concrete,
    • Convert to user check boxes.
  • Draw > quick draw area, draw the area.
  • Draw > quick draw frame draw beam, B15 x 12
  • Select edge paints at both ends
