AutoCAD Structural Detailing Reinforcement
Reinforcement of a RC slab (wire fabrics)
ROBOT Millennium v. 20.1 Maintenance Pack 1
Structure calculations
Graphic viewer:
- Windows Vista – the ”Aero” mode switched off automatically during the time the program is working
- “Disappearing” texts restored in particular situations, e.g. after activating an animation of displacements, after changing the size of window with the opened dialog box of load case components.
- Possibility to select a dimension line by indicating it with the cursor.
Model generation:
- Taking into account “lost” contour loads with automatic panel selection when orientations of the contour and the panel are opposite.
- Correction of an unjustified increment in numbering of elements while updating a structure (created with the use of the COM interface).
- Correct definition of the label for imperfections defined by values specified by the user.
- Correction of the definition of an elastic support (KZ value) for imperial units.
Calculations:
- Removal of “error 5000” when Sturm check is switched on, for particular tasks
- Correction of the sum of forces and reactions for models including rigid links and releases modeled by means of DSC elements.
Results for bars: Selection is preserved when opening a new window with results in the form of maps on bars.
- Display of diagrams of sectional forces for tension bars when the combination filter is on.
- Removal of the error on refreshing the table with results of stresses at characteristic points.
RC calculations
General:
- Improvement of display of reinforcing bars.
- Possibility to change a level name in the Inspector dialog box
Beam calculations:
- Implementation of the warning that the admissible area of longitudinal reinforcement is exceeded.
- Correction of a drawing of antishrinkage reinforcement.
- Correction of the self-weight of T-beams imported from CBS Pro.
Spread footing calculations:
- Forcing the coordination of dimensions when changing tabs in dialog boxes for definition of a spread footing.
Continuous footing calculations:
- Implementation of the message about the uplift of a continuous footing from the ground.
- Return to the definition of spans resulting from the geometry of a wall that rests on the continuous footing, and not from the division of a wall into finite elements.
- Corrections of reinforcement resulting from BAEL requirements (number of bars, lap splice lengths)
Slab calculations:
- Removal of the error of the slab wizard if the user has no right to use ROBOT OS.
- Taking automatically into account the self-weight for slabs defined by means of the wizard.
- Corrections of verification and reinforcement of zones.
RC member calculations:
- Taking into account the reinforcement against torsion in the resultant longitudinal reinforcement.
Steel calculations
Steel member design:
- Possibility to verify tension bars.
- Corrections and supplements to calculations according to EC3, EU5F.
Connection design:
- Detailed corrections of verifying calculations according to EC3, PN and CM66
