Hey thanks for the reply, well instead of having beam elements I put in shell elements with negligible thickness on top of the places I needed to rotate and it seems to be working for the moment,although i am not sure how accurate the results are.
Hi
I am to modeling in ABAQUS. I am currently modeling a RC coupling beam. My load for this beam is however rotational ( I have attached the figure describing the rotation. I modeled the concrete as a solid, however I tried various approaches trying to model the load on the beam.
1. I tried...
