3. Modeling A#

3.1. Characteristics of modeling#

Characteristics of the bay:

\(A=2.24E–3{m}^{2}\); \({I}_{y}={I}_{z}=3.7E–6{m}^{4}\); \({J}_{x}=7.4E–6{m}^{4}\); \({A}_{y}={A}_{z}=1.2\)

Characteristics of the posts:

\(A=3.14E–2{m}^{2}\); \({I}_{y}={I}_{z}=4.5E–5{m}^{4}\); \({J}_{x}=9.0E–5{m}^{4}\); \({A}_{y}={A}_{z}=1.2\)

The analysis focuses on \(0.5s\) in 100 equal steps of time.

3.2. Characteristics of the mesh#

The span is modelled by 12 beam elements; each column by 2 elements. All of these elements are \(\mathrm{1m}\) in length.

3.3. Tested sizes and results#
