Spliced Girder Code Check T

This section configures the code check template for spliced U-girder design verification.

Navigation: Templates for Code Check > Spliced Girder Code Check T

Steps

Step 1: Navigate to Spliced Girder Code Check T

Navigate to Templates for Code Check > Spliced Girder Code Check T in the tree view.

Step 2: Configure Stress Limits

Set allowable stress limits for:

• Service Limit States: Concrete compression and tension limits

• Strength Limit States: Ultimate capacity checks

Step 3: Define Check Locations

Specify critical sections for stress verification:

• Support locations

• Midspan regions

• Tendon anchor zones

Step 4: Set Load Combination References

Associate the appropriate load combinations with each check type.

Quick Tip: Prestress Losses

Ensure prestress losses are properly calculated at each stage before running code checks. Time-dependent losses affect service limit state verification.

Verification

After completing these steps, the spliced girder code check template is ready for design verification.
