Girder Deconstruction [CUG]

Girder Deconstruction

For rehabilitation projects, after constructing the existing structure, users can remove some parts of the girder. The OpenBrIM FEA engine automatically calculates load distribution to the bearings based on stiffness and the unbalanced load vector after deconstruction.

Stage: In this stage, the girder’s analytical model will be deconstructed, and the unbalanced load vector will be computed and redistributed throughout the structure.

Girders: Choose the girders for the deconstruction.

Girder Start Station: For girder deconstruction definitions, the start station can be specified using this parameter.

Girder End Station: For girder deconstruction definitions, the end station can be specified using this parameter.
