~PCPL

 

~PCPL, ID_FAM

Transfers the tendons’ actions over the finite elements model.

PREP7: PRESTRESSED CONCRETE: Tendon editor

ID_FAM

Identifies the family to which the tendon loads will be assigned (taken into account only if the bridge and civil nonlinearities module is activated)

Notes

- It will only apply the active tendons.

- It can be applied to beam, shell or solid models.

- For shell or solid element models, the algorithm type can be selected with the command ~CFCONFG.

- For shell element models, it is suggested to select only the elements of the tendons surface before the actions transfer in order to avoid eventual errors in the transfer of the tendons’ actions to the nodes of the angular surfaces intersection.

- This command is also available in SOLU.
