Assign a Stress-Strain model to A165_60 by clicking the three-dots and selecting Edit

Select Stress/Strain model as Bilinear Steel

And click Save

Define a custom Concrete material manually as Fc_3_1/2ksi_NoStiffness.

The purpose of defining such a material is to calculate certain bridge components without considering weight.

Copy and paste the data below for the Fc_3_2ksi_NoStiffness.

Code Block
languagexml
Fc_3_2ksi_NoStiffness	0.0004	0.0000	0.0002	149.9904	6.0000	concrete	Mander Concrete

Define a new material manually as RigidMaterial

Copy and paste the data below for the RigidMaterial.

Code Block
languagexml
RigidMat	4307.0000	0.2000	1794.5830	0.0000	6.5000	steel	Bilinear Steel
