Optimize Reinforcement

Selects optimum reinforcement for shells according to the approach proposed by Marti (see Marti, P., Dimensioning and detailing, in IABSE Colloquium Report, Vol 62, Stuttgart, Germany, 1991, pp. 411-443).

Inputs

NameIDDescriptionType
ModelModelModel for which to optimize the reinforcement.Model
Elem IdentifiersElemIdsList of identifiers of single elements that take part in cross section design. By default the whole structure is included.Generic Data
Group IdentifiersGroupIdsList of identifiers of groups of elements that take part in cross section design and shall have uniform cross section. You can use the names of element sets and regular expressions for defining groups.Text
Maximum utilizationMaxUtilTarget value of the element utilization. '1.0' means full utilization.Number
