Reply To: Too high stress in a plate

Hi Peter,

thank you for your quick Response. Maybe I can use the symmetry for the first part of my project but later i want do do a Parameter study with size of every pin and their angle to the plate. So in my opinion i cant use it.

For the Connection with the UHPC Panel and the Support block:

When we are concreting the UHPC Panel(Shell) the glass-filled plastic pins are already fixed in the the shuttering. After the concrete has dried the plate is rotated 180° and the other side got fixed in the Support block shuttering. Then we are concreting it with a c50/60. So for the bond between the pins and the Panel/Support block is just the bonding of the concrete and no adhesive.

So i have to use Shell Elements ? If yes how can i do this ?

I hope i have answered all your questions.

Best regards,

Max
