CSiCOL is a comprehensive software package used for the analysis and design of columns. The design of columns of any concrete, reinforced concrete, or composite cross-section can be carried out by the program. CSiCOL provides a 'Quick Design Wizard' tool that guides the users step-by-step, through the whole process of column design. This makes the design process simple, organized and efficient. The design can be carried out in accordance with ACI-318-02, ACI-318-99, BS8110 or CSA A-23.3-94 codes. CSiCOL is capable of handling an unlimited number of load combinations both for sway and non-sway conditions. The design actions may be specified directly or may be computed by the program using the moment magnification method. The design and analysis take into account the slenderness effects. Sway or non-sway condition checks may also be performed by the program as specified by the selected design code. Moreover, CSiCOL is capable of determining the Effective Length Factor based on the framing and end conditions of the column. CSiCOL output includes the capacity interaction surface, load-moment curves, moment-moment curves, moment-curvature curves for various failure criteria, combined axial-flexural elastic stress contours, rebar stresses, cracked section stresses, load point location, capacity vector, neutral axis depth and orientation, etc. Reports may be created as part of the output for the analysis and design process. The reports may be customized by adding information and graphics of your choice. CSiCOL provides several predefined parametric shapes, including a variety of solids, hollow, and flanged shapes, in addition to a large collection of Standard Steel Database Shapes, which can be used in composite columns. It is easy to merge, edit and draw Shapes to suit geometry requirements and create complex cross-sections. The program provides tools for the alignment, stacking, and placement of these Shapes. Rebars can be placed anywhere (corner, perimeter, sides, circle, irregular, etc.) in the cross-section using several addition and placement tools. Standard (ASTM, Metric, and Imperial ) as well as user defined rebar sets may be used. The Column Handled by CSiCOL Design Reinforced and Composite Concrete Columns Consider true bi-axial behavior using full interaction surface Generate moment-curvature curve to determine performance and ductility Determine elastic and cracked section stresses Determine geometric properties Works in US, Metric and SI units Uses ASTM, Metric, Imperial or user defined Rebar sets Supports ACI-318-99 and ACI-318-02, ACI-318-05, Canadian, BS8110 codes

Displacement Based Design Traditionally, earthquake-resistant design has been strength-based, using linear elastic analysis. Since inelastic behavior is usually allowed for strong earthquakes, this is not entirely rational. Strength-based design considers inelastic behavior only implicitly. Displacement-based (or deformation-based) design considers inelastic behavior explicitly, using nonlinear inelastic analysis. Displacement-based design recognizes that in a strong earthquake, inelastic deformation (or ductility) can be more important than strength. PERFORM-3D allows you to use displacement-based design. Implementation of ASCE 41 Procedures for displacement-based design using inelastic analysis are specified in ASCE 41, “Seismic Rehabilitation of Existing Buildings”. ASCE 41 applies to the retrofit of existing buildings, but the procedures can be applied to the design of new buildings. PERFORM-3D implements the procedures in ASCE 41. However, PERFORM-3D is a general tool for implementing displacement-based design. It is not limited to ASCE 41. Capacity Design The response of a structure to earthquake ground motion, whether elastic or inelastic, is highly uncertain. Capacity design is a rational way to improve the response of a structure in a strong earthquake, by deliberately controlling its behavior. Capacity design controls the inelastic behavior of a structure, by allowing inelastic behavior only in locations chosen by the designer. In these locations the structural components are designed to be ductile. The rest of the structure remains essentially elastic, and can be less ductile. Controlling the behavior in this way improves reliability, reduces the amount of damage, and can reduce construction costs. PERFORM-3D allows you to apply capacity design principles. What PERFORM-3D is NOT PERFORM-3D has powerful capabilities for inelastic analysis, but it is not intended for general purpose nonlinear analysis. If you have no idea how your structure will behave when it becomes inelastic in a strong earthquake, PERFORM-3D can probably help you to identify the weak points, and hence can guide you in improving the design. However, PERFORM-3D is not intended for “design by analysis”, where the engineer expects the analysis to determine exactly how a structure will behave. PERFORM-3D is a powerful tool for implementing displacement-based design and capacity design. It will help you to produce better designs, but it will not do the engineering for you.

SAFE is the ultimate tool for designing concrete floor and foundation systems. From framing layout all the way through to detail drawing production, SAFE integrates every aspect of the engineering design process in one easy and intuitive environment. SAFE provides unmatched benefits to the engineer with its truly unique combination of power, comprehensive capabilities, and ease-of-use. Laying out models is quick and efficient with the sophisticated drawing tools, or use one of the import options to bring in data from CAD, spreadsheet, or database programs. Slabs or foundations can be of any shape, and can include edges shaped with circular and spline curves. Post-tensioning may be included in both slabs and beams to balance a percentage of the self-weight. Suspended slabs can include flat, two-way, waffle, and ribbed framing systems. Models can have columns, braces, walls, and ramps connected from the floors above and below. Walls can be modeled as either straight or curved. Mats and foundations can include nonlinear uplift from the soil springs, and a nonlinear cracked analysis is available for slabs. Generating pattern surface loads is easily done by SAFE with an automated option. Design strips can be generated by SAFE or drawn in a completely arbitrary manner by the user, with complete control provided for locating and sizing the calculated reinforcement. Finite element design without strips is also available and useful for slabs with complex geometries. Comprehensive and customizable reports are available for all analysis and design results. Detailed plans, sections, elevations, schedules, and tables may be generated, viewed, and printed from within SAFE or exported to CAD packages. SAFE provides an immensely capable yet easy-to-use program for structural designers, provideing the only tool necessary for the modeling, analysis, design, and detailing of concrete slab systems and foundations.

For nearly 30 years, ETABS has been recognized as the industry standard for Building Analysis and Design Software. Today, continuing in the same tradition, ETABS has evolved into a completely integrated building analysis and design environment. The system built around a physical object based graphical user interface, powered by targeted new special purpose algorithms for analysis and design, with interfaces for drafting and manufacturing, is redefining standards of integration, productivity and technical innovation. The integrated model can include moment resisting frames, braced frames, staggered truss systems, frames with reduced beam sections or side plates, rigid and flexible floors, sloped roofs, ramps and parking structures, mezzanine floors, multiple tower buildings and stepped diaphragm systems with complex concrete, composite or steel joist floor framing systems. solutions to complex problems such as panel zone deformations, diaphragm shear stresses, and construction sequence loading are now at your fingertips. ETABS is the solution, whether you are designing a simple 2D frame or performing a dynamic analysis of a complex high-rise that utilizes non-linear dampers for inter-story drift control.

Modeling, analysis, and design of bridge structures have been integrated into CSiBridge to create the ultimate in computerized tools tailored to meet the needs of the engineering professional. The ease with which all of these tasks can be accomplished makes CSiBridge the most versatile and productive software program in the industry. Using CSiBridge, engineers can easily define complex bridge geometries,boundary conditions and load cases. The bridge models are defined parametrically,using terms that are familiar to bridge engineers, such as layout lines, spans, bearings, abutments, bents, hinges, and post-tensioning. The software creates spine, shell, or solid object models that update automatically as the bridge definition parameters are changed. CSiBridge design allows for quick and easy design and retrofitting of steel and concrete bridges. The parametric modeler allows the user to build simple or complex bridge models and to make changes efficiently while maintaining total control over the design process. Lanes and vehicles can be defined quickly and include width effects. Simple and practical Gantt charts are available to simulate modeling of construction sequences and scheduling. The CSiBridge includes an easy to follow wizard that outlines the steps necessary to create a bridge model. Completely integrated within the CSiBridge design package is the power of the SAPFire analysis engine, including staged construction, creep and shrinkage analysis, cable tensioning to target forces, camber and shape finding, geometric nonlinearity (P-delta and large displacements), material nonlinearity (superstructure, bearings, substructure, and soil supports), buckling, and static and dynamic analysis. All of these apply to a single comprehensive model. In addition, AASHTO LRFD design is included with automated load combinations, superstructure design, and the latest seismic design.

La France améliore la prévention du risque sismique et étend l’application des règles de construction parasismique à 21 000 communes à compter du 1er mai 2011. Elle prévoit un nouveau zonage sismique en France ainsi que de nouvelles règles parasismiques pour les bâtiments, à compter du 1er mai 2011. Plus de 21 000 communes sont concernées par la nouvelle réglementation contre un peu plus de 5 000 par la réglementation actuelle. Une révision des règles parasismiques En France, le risque de tremblements de terre est pris en compte dans les édifications depuis une trentaine d’années. Cette réglementation a été révisée pour notamment répondre aux exigences du nouveau code européen de construction parasismique : l’Eurocode 8. Les règles s’appliquent aux bâtiments neufs et aux bâtiments existants en cas de travaux entraînant une modification importante de leur structure. Pour les nouveaux édifices, des solutions faciles à mettre en œuvre sont à disposition des constructeurs de maisons individuelles et de petits bâtiments, en alternative à l’utilisation de l’Eurocode 8. Une nouvelle carte du zonage sismique Une nouvelle carte du zonage sismique français a été élaborée. Issue des avancées de la connaissance scientifique en sismologie depuis 20 ans, elle contribuera à améliorer la prévention de ce risque pour un plus grand nombre de personnes. De nouvelles zones ont été identifiées, notamment dans le Nord et le Grand Ouest, reflétant une meilleure connaissance de la sismicité locale. Des modifications des niveaux et des extensions des zones de sismicité concernent également des régions déjà reconnues sismiques, comme les Pyrénées, les Alpes, la Provence ou l’Alsace. A partir du 1er mai 2011, 60 % des communes françaises sont situées en zones de sismicité 2 à 5, contre 14 % dans l’ancien zonage. 25 % des communes sont concernées par les règles parasismiques pour les maisons individuelles. http://www.developpement-durable.gouv.fr/IMG/pdf/DGALN_plaquette_MEDDTL_reglementation_parasismique_0111.pdf

Bonjour Plancoet, Si j'ai bien compris vous souhaitez classer les réglements locaux français selon les même catégories cités ci-dessus avec les Eurocode, je pense que c'est plus utile que la classification des Eurocodes seuls que j'ai fait. Je suis partant pour faire cette classification, quel est votre plan de travail ? salutations KETAB
