Question:

Hi guys,

Please help with the following question:

I'm using the Steel Composite Bridge Wizard to create my model.
At the step of defining the Construction Stage, the program automatically generated 5 deck segments D1~D5.
My question is how do I know the length of each segment and if I want to add more or change segments' length, what I should do?



Thanks

Answer:

Hi,

The lengths of segment D2, D4 are determined by 'Negative moment zone length' or 'Advanced' option. The lengths of segment D1, D3 are determined by subtracting the lengths of D2, D4 from the span lengths.


Regards,
DK Lee
