Steel I Girder Stress Summary Table [SIG]

For this object to be utilized, the model must have completed the analysis and successfully passed the design process, as this object will use the data obtained from the analysis and extract the results of the design.

This report cannot be accessed through the DOCS button in the left sidebar, as it is not like other reports and requires the successful completion of analysis and design before it can be generated.

To access the Steel I Girder Stress Summary Table:

Open

Go to the detailed report, which will be visible after successfully completing analysis and design.

Open the detailed report for the Stress Results Summary Table.

General

Girder: Specify the type of girder to be used in the report.

Noncomposite Result Cases: This parameter can be used to define the noncomposite result cases. Stress values will be calculated based on the noncomposite section and its properties, with extracted results, and the forces to be specified by the chosen result cases.

Long-Term Composite Result Cases: This parameter can be used to specify the long-term composite result cases. For composite sections (which will mean the combined steel and concrete deck section in this case), the stress values will be calculated based on the long-term composite section's inertia and long-term composite section with reinforcement’s moment of inertia. These results, along with the forces to be specified by the chosen result cases, will be presented in the stress table.

Short-Term Composite Result Cases: This parameter can be used to define the short-term composite result cases. Stress values will be presented to the user based on the section's short-term properties, or in other words, using the short-term composite section with reinforcement’s moment of inertia, and the short-term composite section's moment of inertia will be taken into account for stress calculations, with forces to be specified by the chosen result cases.

Deck Reinforcement

Input Data Preference [Override Deck Rebar/Use Deck Rebar]: For deck rebar to be used in girder code checks, users are provided with two options. The code checks can either be conducted using the modeled deck rebar or with new rebar definitions.

If the input data preference is defined with the option 'Override Deck Rebar,' the parameters listed below can be used to define the rebars for code checks. Otherwise, if the input data preference is defined with the option 'Use Deck Rebar,' the parameters below will not be applicable.

Lumped Top Reinforcement Area within the Effective Width: This parameter can be used to specify the lumped reinforcement area within the effective width when overriding deck rebar.

Distance from the Centerline of Top Bars to the Top of the Deck: This parameter can be used to define the distance from the centerline of the top reinforcement bars to the top of the deck.

Lumped Bottom Reinforcement Area within the Effective Width: This parameter can be used to specify the lumped reinforcement area within the effective width for the bottom deck rebar.

Distance from the Centerline of Bottom Bars to the Bottom of the Deck: This parameter can be used to define the distance from the centerline of the bottom reinforcement bars to the bottom of the deck.

Deck Rebar Material: This parameter can be used to specify the material used for the deck rebars.

Concrete Creep Adjustment Factor: This parameter can be used to define the adjustment factor for concrete creep in calculations.

Settings

Stress at Every nth Station: For the results to be presented based on the stress values along the girders, several results must be extracted, and the definitions of the stations for which the results will be extracted can be specified by this parameter.

Additional Stations: This parameter can be used to specify any additional stations for which results will be extracted or analyzed, in addition to those defined by the Stress at Every nth Station parameter.

Include Haunch for Section Properties? [Yes/No]: For stress values, the haunch can either be included or excluded from the section properties, and this can be specified by this parameter.

Modular Ratio Comp. Method [EsbyEc/User Input]: The modular ratio can be computed either by dividing the modular ratio of steel by that of concrete or by using a user-defined input. This parameter allows users to specify the method for calculating the modular ratio.

Modular Ratio: If the Modular Ratio Comp. Method is defined with the option 'User Input,' a modular ratio can be defined manually. Otherwise, this parameter will be marked as not applicable (N/A).

Ignored Insertion Points for Span Positioning: This parameter can be used to specify any insertion points that should be ignored for span positioning.

Show Computation Details [Yes/No]: This parameter allows users to specify whether to display computation details.
