Development of load-bearing shell-type trc structures – initial numerical analysis

Research output: Contribution to book/conference proceedings/anthology/reportConference contributionContributedpeer-review

Abstract

In nature, shell structures can be found in diverse variations. Compared to straight beams, where the bending stress increases disproportionately due to its weight, shell structures can handle significantly larger spans with minimal material expenditure. In the ideal case, only membrane stresses prevail in such thin-walled structures. To reach a similar performance in structures made of textile reinforced concrete (TRC), one of the aims is to develop an analysis method and software solution appropriate for the design routine of thin-walled structures. This goal is realized by adopting the software Rhino 3D in combination with the programming environment Grasshopper 3D. Together with the utilization of commercial FEM software, this method provides access to an integration of failure criteria selected for the analysis purpose within the scope of the project.
