Questions about Ch4-steel-01
Posted: 08 May 2015, 06:24
Dear Seismosoft support,
I am trying to do some more analysis on Ch4-steel-01. However, from the references of Ch4-steel-01 in verification report (Page 93), I notice that the yield strength of beams and columns in experimental tests (388MPa, 393MPa, 398MPa, 286MPa and 347MPa) are lower than that you set in Ch4-steel-01. Besides, there is RC slab on the beams in the experiment references, but Ch4-steel-01 does not include the slab.
Although the above difference between the experiment and the modelling, the comparison of hysteretic curves on Page 91 of the report looks good. Could you please suggest me why you model this with different yield strength and not include the slab? But still get good simulation results for hysteretic curves? Do you think Ch4-steel-01 can well represent the real experimental frame?

Thank you very much.
