Etabs Manual Meshing Problem
Waqar Saleem reacted to EngrUzair for a topic
shaker, Your attached image gives a very strange look, as it does not appear to have a regular pattern of supports for slabs. Moreover, I don't see any kind of regular building frame system in it. What kind of structure it is? Can you attach text input (.$ET) file of your model?1 point -
Can you share some details about your model here? For example, images of meshed roof to see what type of slab arrangement it is, and how you have meshed it.1 point

Drop In Slabs
Waqar Saleem reacted to WR1 for a topic
Just to add, There could be drops in any shape or at any location in a slab, you just design for it. The effective depth will increase ofcourse for thicker slabs. I would preferably not design such slabs as cantilever on supported by the other slab, rather I will design it as continuous. The portion where two slabs meet, I will consider it as beam and provide side bars for torsion.1 point -

And, finally here is the simplest relation between fracture energy and the compressive strength of concrete, you were probably looking for. See the attached image.
