Assessing the structural performance of a reinforced concrete beam: The effects of simulated rotation angle utilizing robot structural analysis software

摘要

This study investigates the effect of the rotation angle in relation to the horizontal plane on the structural behavior of a reinforced concrete beam. Simulations were performed utilizing Autodesk's Robot Structural Analysis software for four different angles: 0°, 5°, 10°, and 15° The main objective is to evaluate the impact of these angles on bending moment, shear force, and deflection. The findings show that as the angle increases, the bending moments and shear forces decrease while the deflections increase.•The methodology is a simulation study based on a finite element method.•Autodesk's Robot Structural Analysis Software is the main tool of this study.
