For years my firm outsourced the vibration analysis and evaluation of our concrete floor systems.
I recently upgraded to the latest ADAPT Floor pro 2010 that allows me to automatically determine the modal vibration responses, in Hz, of the models we are designing. I am now hoping to evaluate...
Contrary to your perception of ADAPT-Floor Pro, this is howit handles the beams (i) if a beam is narrow, user has the option to use a stick element that the program automatically models at the correct eccentricity with respect to the slab, and considers the proper width of the slab at the...
