Abstract

This article is about choosing building structure analysis model question. Construction analysis model type choice affects result of counting. Result accuracy and reliability depends on analysis scheme choice. Using modern computers, there is a lot of alternative abilities of creation construction analysis model. This article is made to understand these analysis models features and their influence on result. An example of counting beam in six independent CAD systems is shown. Engineering simulation and design software, which base on finite elements method, were chosen for analysis. These counting models differ from each other only by geometrical scheme. Beam geometry modeling is performed using beam elements, shell elements and solid elements. The comparison of beam calculation results with its beam, shell and solid elements analysis scheme modelling was performed. The analysis of single factor (geometric scheme) influence on the results of beam calculation is shown. It was defined, that the choice of calculation complex does not affect the calculation result, if the geometrical counting models are completely identical. It was defined, that in case creating construction with various types finite elements there are differences in the calculation results. Difference in calculation results, using different geometrical models, is seen in using the same complex and in comparison of different complexes. It was defined, that difference in calculating internal forces and moments in beam for different geometrical models can be more than 10%.
