ABAQUS Reinforced Concrete Beam 

I would like to extend a warm thank you for having explained the steps that you took, without which our project would have been lacking.

Thank you for this valuable material

Mon mec je m’agenouille devant toi ❤️❤️🙏🏻

Thank you so much for this

Thank you very much for such an informative video.

Sir , all your video are very helpful . Thank you very much. Can you please upload video explaining blast load simulation on reinforced concrete using ABAQUS.

Great video. Thanks !!

Thank you so much for your work

Very usefull thanks a lot ! Hopefully you'll share more videos ;)

very helpful ,thanks

Bro it's really help me a lot thank for upload the video 😀😄

thank you, it was so helpful

Thank you

I think you can use display groups to show the surface between the beam and the support.

Such an amazing tutor, very clear explanations, very informative, and funny as well, I like you teaching 👍, watched during covid19 restrictions 😂

thanks for the video...sir can you please add a video of an analysis of a beam strengthened by Carbon Fibre Polymers

i thank you for your tutor

thank u sir for this wounder full explanation ,plz upload the weld connection btw 2 material

Sir the video is wonderful and helpful.Great Job

Hello Vlad Inc, I would like to ask you a question. Why do you use Merge Instances in the first model for combining steel and and concrete instead of Embedded Region? Is there any difference between Merge instance and Embedded region? Hope to hear from you. Thank you

Hi, thanks for showing us this example, it was really helpful.. I would like to know which model you use to predict the stress-strain relationship of concrete.. Thanks a lot.

Dear Sir, thank you so much for this video i have modeled an RC beam with simply supported boundary conditions and used concrete damaged plasticity model to account for the nonlinearities in concrete, i have got the frequency value using a frequency step for the case of beam under its own weight only and it was good, but i want to add loads to get values of frequencies for different load cases. i have used a static general step to define the added load, knowing that this step is before the frequency step, but the results of frequency is the same as the case in the beam under its own weight! my question is how to extract frequencies according to the effect of "static" load ? i need your help please

Great video. I think you could've assigned the reinforcement section as truss rather than beam because they act as uni-axial elements. Perhaps that would've saved some time in computation. I wonder how much time it took for the analysis and if you could have modelled the concrete as planar to reduce the computational time.

Hi Sir, Thank you for your video. I have a question regarding the rebars as solids. 1. Why did you mesh the beams and rebars manually? 2. If I still use the rebars as solids, should I use embedded regions as well? Thank you for your video!

Hey Bugsy, Excellent Video, I wanted your help in modelling prestress tendon inside concrete slab. please can i get your help?

Hi Bugsy Thank you for your very helpful you tube. If you can help me in same example but under concentrated load. And how to find the ultimate failure load and the relation between load and displacement.

While merging it is converting either to concrete or steel

would the results be much different if we use truss elements when defining section for rebar?

Hi, Thanks for the video, but I have a question regarding the Abaqus. Does Abaqus can simulate Polypropylene Fibre reinforced concrete? Hope you can reply me Thanks ~

Sir please upload a video showing how to get load displacement curve for reinforced concrete column under compression in abaqus. Thankyou

Sir have you any knowledge about how to provide slip property between steel reinforcement and concrete beam. Because no reinforcement is completely embedded.

Dear sir,Thank you very much for video.can you please upload a video on prestressed concrete beamsor comment steps how to apply prestress in rebars of the above explained problem? thanks for your comment

All links in the description updated on 06.11.2017. Let me know if they fail working again

When it comes to the merging mesh part, the error ''Warning: Merging contents of the sets having same name in selected instanced, this may result in merging of respective section assignments, appears. Could you possibly help with this

Thank you very much Please can you do for a steel structure (Portal frame) and can you give us the material property for steel as you did for concrete?

sir, can you please help me to overcome the error of Too many attempts made for this increment .

Sir, what about shell reinforment(sphere) ,how to design main n secondary bars... please help...

Thank you so much can I contact with you to learn more, please I want solved Modeling of mechanical behavior in cracking of pipeline alloys

Sir please upload to spot welding simulation

sir please upload riks analysis of deep beam and how we know that crack appeared in deep beam and failure load of beam.

sir, would you upload Composite column video?

Hi..:) Sir, thanks for video....can you please make video for hollow steel tube internally reinforced with other lighter material like plastic. and subjected to case 1) tensile loading 2) compression loading 3) three point bending test... Sir it will help me lot.... Waiting for your positive response..

Why do I hear Jose Mourinho? J.K. This is a great lecture.

Hello, when I merge the instances everything turns into 1 material. Could answer me possible mistakes pls?

Please i have a problem when merging instances it gives me a warning message that the whole instances has the same material with one color, i made every thing typically as you did but i still have this annoying warning please help me

Sir I have made model using your video but it is showing error of to many increments

Hi Vlad! Nice video! A quick question: what is the instance --> merge/cut operation doing? I think it always results in a merged instance with only one material (steel OR concrete, not Reinforced Concrete). What am I doing wrong? I tried your way or selecting (i.e., I started by selecting steel). I also tried selecting by instance name. No success.

Hi bro Thank you for your video I want to make simulation for high strength concrete,can you suggest to me a video to help me with its paper,thanks in advance

Thank you so much for you sharing. However, How can we plot the Force and Displacement Curve? And which node or element is chosen to capture force and displacement? Thank in advance

Sir, how to model seismic hook stirrup in abaqus? Kindly guide me plzz

Hello there, it is an excellent tutorial, Thank you very much. 1) Why did you made a whole lot of partition to have green color ? why it is so much necessary to have hex elements ? 2) do those partition make any kind of difference in the analysis ? 3) why is the color changing by making those partition in the first place ? Plz do reply sir...

can i contact with you to learn more , please i want solved examples or pdf files for R.C beams

sir, i want to model in ABACUS 6.14 version for RCC beam-length 2000mm, effective span-1800mm and cross section-150x250mm. bottom steel 2-12dia, top 2-8dia, steel strirrups 8mm-2legged-100mmc/c. Grade of concrete M45 and Steel Fe500. I want to find out the load vs deflection curve and crack propagation, sir can you help me. loading two point at 600mm apart. Further i am also want to model with this beams with CFRP 50mm width, thickness 0.333 mm, Fult-3400 MPa, E-245 GPa. Kindly help me

formulas for concrete damage plasticity

Hi, your tutorial is great. Thanks a lot, man. Have a question about the material definition. In CDP plasticity definition, why you just input the one row of yield stress and inelastic strain as 0. I lost at this part. In my understanding, the inelastic strain = real plastic strain - elastic strain. While the yield stress remains the same at the plateau, the strain keeps going, so there should be some subsequent values after the first row. Would you please explain to me? Much appreciated. Very very excellent videos, subscribed and thumb up. Hope to see more coming!

if the rate of loading was experimentally = .05 mm/sec, for this beam how to define this in abaqus and we need strengthening of concrete beam by CFRP laminates in abaqus. thanks

i want to know the equations used to get the tension stress strain curve in excel sheet and the equation of max tensile stress

i need your excel file for more practice if you volentier

In constraints, don't we have to tie the rebars and stirrups?

while you was defining concrete you have put in elastic strain = 0 ?? why it has value corresponding to stress in excell sheet >>> also same thing happen while you was defining steel >>> hope to answer me soon >> thank you for your effort

When i merge the beam with the reinforcing bars thus creating a single element, the material of the element is concrete or steel depending on witch instances i have selected first. How can i solve this problem?

i need if some one

Hi, can u upload again the excel file. Its error to download it thank you

Hello Bugsy, i wrote you an email concerning a problem i have to solve, did you get it? It would be great if you could help me with this

While defining the concrete, for concrete of grade M25, what will the properties of concrete damaged plasticity be?

can somebody help me regarding the excel file datas that have been put here. For what grade of concrete are these datas valid?

Hello Bugsy Band. I need to modellate bond-slip behaviour between concrete and rebar and I could use your help. Can i get you E-mail?
