Required Strength.
Rigid and semi-rigid diaphram conditions should be choosen by user according to irregularities defined in Codes.
Analysis is done automatically according to finite element method.
Required strength is designed to analyse with Load Factors and Combinations.
International Design Codes
ACI 318-19 : Diaphragm Required Strength per ACI 318-19 with ideCAD
TSC 2018 : Slabs with In-Plane compressive and Shear Stresses (7.11.3) Parallel and Perpendicular Reinforcement as Collector Elements (7.11.5)
Required strength is designed to analyse with Load Factors and Combinations. It’s important for determining required strength of diaphragms to control effects of out-of-plane loads simultaneous with other applicable loads.
Diaphram modeling and analysis
Analysis is done automatically according to finite element method. Rigid and semi-rigid diaphram conditions should be choosen by user according to Codes
