Usage of Slab Strips<\/span><\/span><\/b><\/div>\n
\n
\n
Slab Strips are used for creating a means for the analysis, design and curtailment of slabs. Slabs along the strip are determined and their analysis is performed along the strip if the moment coefficients method is selected. Similarly, a continuous beam analysis is performed along the strips if ribbed slabs are encountered.<\/span><\/span><\/span>
<\/span><\/div>\n
If the method of analysis is selected to be finite elements, then the design results along the strips are collected from the analysis results based on the type of slab strip set by the user.<\/span><\/span><\/span>
<\/span><\/div>\n

The Usage of Slab Strips:<\/span><\/span><\/span>
<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Analysis and Design of Slabs<\/b>: Slabs and Ribbed Slabs that are found along the strips are analysed and designed. If the strip is a Finite Element Strip, then the analysis results are collected from the finite element model results otherwise, the analysis of the slabs along the strip is carried out using the moment coefficient method.<\/span>
    <\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Insertion of the Reinforcement Bars<\/b>: Steel bars calculated during the analysis of the slabs are inserted along the strip based on the Strip Type parameter.<\/span>
    <\/span><\/li>\n
  3. Analysis and Design of Ribbed Slabs<\/b>: A continuous beam model is created along the strip for the analysis and design of ribs.<\/span>
    <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Steel Bars are calculated only along the direction of the slab strips. For that reason, strips must be defined along both directions for two-way slabs. More than one strip may need to be defined along one direction for L-shape slabs to take into account different spans.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    Similarly, more than one strip may need to be defined along slabs with different adjacent slabs along an edge. In such cases, in order to make a correct quantity extraction, slab span lines may need to be manually modified.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

        \n
        \n
        In slab systems with beams, steel layers will automatically be set using the plan dimensions of the slabs that the strip intersects.
        For example, the steel bars that are located along the short span of the slab will have the layer number \u201c1 \u201d whereas the bars in the other direction are located in Steel Layer \u201c2 \u201d.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

        Strip Type

        \n
          \n
        1. Type<\/u> :<\/b> There are 3 different strip types in ProtaStructure which are:<\/li>\n
            \n
          1. Analytical Strip :<\/b> Design slab rebars based on Building Analysis result (Moment Coefficient Method) without FE Floor Analysis or Building Analysis Floor meshing.
            These strips must pass through the slabs supported by beams and walls. Building Analysis must be performed. Refer : Analytical Strip (Moment Coefficient Method) <\/a><\/li>\n
          2. FE Strip :<\/b> Design slab rebars based on FE Floor Analysis or Building Analysis Floor meshing.
            Building Analysis (with FE Floor\/Foundation Analysis or Building Analysis FE Mesh) must be performed. Refer :             Finite Element FE Strip<\/a>
            Only FE Strip type can select either to be " Span Strip" or "Fixed Band Strip".<\/li>\n
            \"Info\"<\/p>\n
            Type of the Finite Element Strip must be consistent with the slab system.
            For example, if you are working with a slab system with beams, the Finite Element Strip type must be \u201cSpan Strip\u201d.<\/span><\/div>\n
            Similarly, if the system you are working on is a flat plate, then differing with the location, \u201cFixed Band Strip\u201d must be selected.<\/div>\n

              1. \n
                Manual Strip :<\/b> Manually assign slab rebars without analysis and design.<\/div>\n
                Extra tab "St. Bars" can be found to fill in and display the steel bars associated with this strip.<\/div>\n

                \n
                \"Alert\"<\/p>\n
                When applying Analytical Strip<\/b> and FE strip – (Span Strip)<\/b>, avoid drawing across a single floor bay that has multiple slabs in it because the slab strips will always design only for the first slab it went across. 
                Single floor bay defined as a slab area between 2 beams\/walls parallel to each other as a support for the slabs.

                This option is visible and selectable only when "FE Strip" type is selected. Slab rebars design can either based on: <\/div>\n

                  In this section, slab start and end condition can be defined based on the icon.<\/div>\n
                  Start of the strip will always be at the left (horizontally) or bottom (vertical), while the other point will be the end of the strip. <\/div>\n

                  Slab Width (Boundary Conditions : Continuous)
                  <\/h2>\n
                  "Slab width" is to defined the extension of rebars at the start or end of the strip when "Continuous" boundary condition is selected.<\/div>\n
                  \n
                  \"Idea\"An easy way of determining this dimension is clicking to this input field with the mouse and then selecting the slab (by clicking to the label in the plan window). Then the width along the strip will appear. The top steel bars are extended further into the adjacent slab by the anchorage length set by the user.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

                  Scope Width (FE Strip-Fixed Band Strip)
                  <\/h2>\n
                  "Scope Width" is the analysis width to be considered when acquire the slab analysis result (i.e. moment) to design the rebars when FE Strip (Fixed Band Strip) is selected. <\/div>\n
                  The width for either side should never set to "0" to avoid analysis error.<\/div>\n
                  To easily define the scope width, the ">" button can be used to auto calculate the width of each side by clicking on to the point where you wish to extent the strip width within the slab.<\/div>\n
