Two different reinforcement in the same section
Posted: 14 Oct 2018, 18:13
Hi,
I'd like to model a wall with two different reinforcements in the same section.
The purpose is to put shape memory alloy (SMA - NiTi) in the boundaries of the wall, and classic steel in the web (see figure) at the plastic hinge region.
The problem so far is that when we create a section in the program, it only allows us to choose one reinforcement (see second figure).
Is there somebody who has already tried to model the same type of section and has succeed?
Thanks a lot for your help !
