recently I've been working on a stadium. about the stadium ,some pictures are diaplayed blow:
to build a model , first of all ,you should read the artitecture blueprint. a good artitect will offer you a blueprint with a lot of useful
information. use the grid to locate the structure members. use the floor plan to determine the section and type of members. From
the the profile and cutaway we can determine the height of memeber. for special bulidings like spatial structure , complex tall buildings , high-rise
and slender structure , usually we should combine these blueprint to get a complete view of the structure.
the axis is a little complex, I use the method indicated by the picture below to locate these columns.
next we decide which element to simulate the member ,usually the frame for the column and the beam , the shell for the slab .
in sap2000 we usually don't use membrane to simulate the floor as we do in etabs , cause the membrane element is not powerful as the the membrane element in etabs .
for the stand slab ,we usually don't bulid it in the model , instead we can take it as dead load and apply them on the cant beam,
however ,we should manify the I33 of the cant beam considering the restriction from the slab.
the simulation of cable and support is also crucial , I may discuss about it in my later work diary .
discussions are welcome.
