Insert excerptGirder Erection (Complete) [SIG]Girder Erection (Complete) [SIG]nameGirderErectionCompnopaneltrueComplete construction is typically used for prestressed concrete U-girders. If the user is working on a spliced U-girder bridge project, “Girder Construction(Segmental)” can be employed to construct the segments one by one.

Girder Construction

Stage: During this stage, finite elements for girders will be constructed and their self-weight will be applied concurrently.

Girders: All selected girders will be constructed at the selected stage.

Age of Girder at Erection(Day): This information is used to calculate the tendon losses in the code check object, or it can be utilized if the user decides to run a time-dependent staged construction analysis with CIB-FIB curves.

Girder Self Weight Factor: The Girder Self-Weight Factor is a parameter used to adjust the contribution of a girder's own weight to the overall structural load calculations. This factor allows for the scaling or modification of the girder's self-weight in finite element analysis (FEA).
