FSM Bridge Created Edited

Group generated from FSM Bridge Wizard

If you have modeled a bridge using the FSM Bridge Wizard function, the automatically generated group names are as follows:

 

Structure Group

CSn

The main girder activated in the nth construction stage.

 

Bridge Girder

All the main girders

 

Boundary Group

Start_Roller

Roller support conditions for the beginning abutment activated at construction stage CS01.

 

Piern_Roller

The roller support conditions for the nth pier in construction stage CSn.

 

Pierm_Fix

The fixed support conditions for the mth pier, which was specified as a fixed support location in the Wizard, activated at the construction stage CSm.

 

Pier1_Fix

Temporary fixed support conditions applied at the first pier location before the construction stage reaches the pier location specified as a fixed support in CSm. These temporary fixed support conditions are activated in CS1 and deactivated in CSm.

 

Pier1_Roller

The roller support conditions applied again to the first pier after the temporary fixed support conditions have been applied to it and the construction stage has progressed to the pier location specified as a fixed support in CSm. These roller support conditions are activated in CSm.

 

Endn_Roller

Roller support conditions for the last abutment during the construction stage immediately prior to the final stage.

 

Load Group

Self Weight

The self-weight of the elements, which is activated in the first construction stage and applied as soon as the elements are created.

 

WCn

The self-weight of the wet concrete and the MSS girder for the nth construction stage, which is activated in CSn.

 

PSna

The tension in the outer tendons (cycle by cycle)

 

PSnb

The tension in the inner tendons (cycle by cycle)
