Instantaneous and Time Dependent Deflection Example 2

In this example, Dead loads are increased, so that the bending moment value of the element is greater than the cracking moment value of the element.

In the structure whose plan view is given in the image below, the instantaneous deflection calculation will be made for the K06 beam and compared with the ideCAD results. For the K06 beam, instantaneous deflection under the effect of live loads (Q) and instantaneous deflection and time-dependent deflection calculations for Dead Loads (G) will be made. The results will be compared with ideCAD v10 by calculating the total deflection from the deflections consisting of fixed and live loads.

Important Note: Deflection in reinforced concrete elements is calculated with Effective Moments of Inertia in ideCAD software . Then, taking into account these effective moments of inertia, a new analysis is made for the deflection control of the structure only. However, in this example, approximate formulas will be used to calculate the beam deflection calculation easier by hand and only deformations due to bending will be considered. In ideCAD software, the deformation effects of all internal forces are taken into account. For this reason, manual calculation and ideCAD results may differ slightly.

Calculation of Section Center of Gravity and Gross Concrete Section Moment of Inertia

Moment of inertia of gross concrete section Ic, is calculated about controidal axis. Therefore, the axis of the center of gravity of the section, distance from centroidal axis of gross section, neglecting reinforcement, to top surface and distance from centroidal axis of gross section, neglecting reinforcement, to bottom surface of the section should be calculated.

ytop : distance from centroidal axis of gross section, neglecting reinforcement, to top surface

ybot : distance from centroidal axis of gross section, neglecting reinforcement, to bottom surface

Moment of inertia of gross concrete section about controidal axis, Ic is calculated as follows

Section Cracking Control

The span, right and left moment values (Mmax) for the K06 beam are compared with the cracking moment Mcr of the member.
If Mmax ≤ Mcr moment of inertia of gross concrete section Ic is used for deflection.
If Mmax > Mcr Effective moment of inertia Ief is used for deflection.

Mcr is calculated in accordance with TS500 13.2. y is distance from centroidal axis of gross section, neglecting reinforcement, to tension surface. For this reason, Mcr values should be calculated separately both in the span and in the end regions.

For the end region, the bending cracking moment Mcr is calculated as follows.

For the span region, the bending cracking moment M cr is calculated as follows.

Beam Cracking Control Under Constant Load (G) and Live Load (Q)

The moment diagram of the K06 beam for the G+Q loading combination is shown below.

At the left end region, the bending cracking moment is calculated as Mcr = 6,208 tfm.

Since Mcr = 6.208 tfm > Mmax-left = 5.974 tfm, no cracking occurred at the left end region. For this reason, Moment of inertia of gross concrete section Ic value is used in the deflection calculation.

At the right end region, the bending cracking moment is calculated as Mcr = 6,208 tfm.

Since Mcr = 6.208 tfm Mmax-right = 10.929 tfm , cracking occurred at the right end region. For this reason, Effective moment of inertia Ieff value is used for calculation of deflection.

In the span region, the bending cracking moment is calculated as Mcr = 3.898 tfm.

Since Mcr = 6.208 tfm Mmax-span = 10.929 tfm , cracking occurred at the span. For this reason, Effective moment of inertia Ieff value is used for calculation of deflection.
