Design and comparison of structure calculation with manual and software methods (Finite element method), GF +10 Floors – Case study

Session

Description

The purpose of this paper is the application of different methods in the design and calculation of reinforced concrete structures. This paper deals ëith the application and comparison of two methods through the case study of reinforced concrete structure with P+10 floors. Through these methods, the comparison of the results from the manual method will be made in relation to that of the finite element method which is applied in the latest software. While, through the development of the model (the sample was taken from the reinforced concrete structure with P+10) all the steps of the separate methods of verification of each element will be analysed and compared, including the slab, beams, pillars, walls, as and bringing the structure as a whole. In addition, this paper aims to show which of the methods has the least inaccuracy and the best results, where through the manual method approximations are made in the analysis and this leads us to inaccurate results, until the finite element method that are applied to the software, these shortcomings or inaccuracies will be minimized and the results achieved will be more accurate. Moreover, this research will give a real insight into the applied methods. In terms of research methodology, the primary research will be based on literature review of similar case studies, software testing, and similar manual calculations. Based on the knoëledge gained, we will have a clearer picture of the complexity of each of the applied methods, but also the differences in results between them. Such a study is considered necessary as it is missing in the literature of general studies.
