S-LINE - Continuous Concrete Beam Flexure Design Validation Problem

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.
