    Defining time-dependent
    materials
    Prestressed concrete bridge construction staged analysis
    in MIDAS Civil
    Construction Stage Analysis
    ▪ Using stages to control sequences, activation or deactivation of:
    − Members
    − Loads
    − Boundary Conditions
    ▪ Relative to time (linear analysis only)
    − Creep
    − Shrinkage
    − Compressive strength gain
    − Prestressing tendon relaxation
    General Procedure
    1. Create a model: geometry, materials, sections, loads, boundary conditions
    2. Setup groups to be used for activation/deactivation in construction stages
    3. Define time-dependent material properties
    4. Link the time-dependent material properties to the applicable material
    5. Create the construction stages and construction stage control properties
    6. Review output
    7. Combine construction stage load cases in Load Combos
    What creep and shrinkage model do I use?
    What creep and shrinkage model do I use?
    ▪ Built-in Code Parameters, or user define
    Understand the results, build Load Combos
    ▪ CS: Dead Load = All load effects except Erection Loads, Creep, Shrinkage, and
    Tendon Prestress
    ▪ CS: Erection Load = Dead load effect which has been separated from DL by the
    Construction Stage Analysis Control Data menu (e.g. DW)
    ▪ CS: Tendon Primary = Deformations/forces resulting from tendon prestress
    ▪ CS: Tendon Secondary = Reactions/forces from tendon prestress in an
    indeterminate structure
    ▪ CS: Creep Primary = Deformations/forces resulting from creep strain
    ▪ CS: Creep Secondary = Reactions/forces from creep in an indeterminate structure
    ▪ CS: Shrinkage Primary = Deformations/forces resulting from shrinkage strain
    ▪ CS: Shrinkage Secondary = Reactions/forces from shrinkage in an indeterminate
    structure
    Step-by-step tutorial

    4. Link the time-dependent material properties to the applicable material
    ▪ Select which of your model materials the time-
    dependent material properties should apply to.
    − Creep/shrinkage
    − Comp. strength

    5. Create the construction stages and construction stage control properties
    ▪ Launch from ribbon or icon
    ▪ Add stages as required

    20 ©Jacobs 2020
    5. Create the construction stages and construction stage control properties
    Verify Control Data
    ▪ Include Time Dependent Effect
    ▪ Separate Erection Load Cases
    ▪ Concurrent Forces
    ▪ Other options for
    − Start/stop
    − Initial displacement
    − Cable pre-tensioning
    − Nonlinear analysis
    − Save output of intermediate
    stages
    6. Review output
    ▪ Ribbon or Tree Menu
    ▪ Click into stages
    ▪ Select individual CS Load
    Cases

    22 ©Jacobs 2020
    6. Review output

    Tendon Primary Creep

    Dead Load Summation

    23 ©Jacobs 2020
    7. Combine construction stage load cases in Load Combos
    ▪ CS: Dead Load
    ▪ CS: Erection Load
    ▪ CS: Tendon, Creep, Shrinkage Primary & Secondary
