S-LINE - Continuous Concrete Beam Flexure Design Validation Problem

User: "Judith"

Updated by Judith

This validation problem emphasizes S-LINE's efficiency and accuracy for continuous concrete beam design.

Design a reinforced concrete beam for flexure using S-LINE and see how to validate the results with hand calculations. This tutorial walks through the steps needed to model and design the beam:

  • set the number of bays to one
  • set pinned boundary conditions (support conditions) at each end
  • change the geometry: beam length, cross-section shape, and size
  • apply loading conditions
  • configure member reinforcement layout
  • run a design code assessment and view results

The steps needed to solve the problem by hand calculations are presented and results are shown to agree with S-LINE generated values.
