Average temperature
The temperature load is applied according to AS 5100.2-2004 section 17 thermal effects.
Setting | Description |
---|---|
Uniform | Consider uniform temperature load (Yes/No). |
T min/max design | Temperature ranges according to table 17.2(1) Shade air temperatures defined from General page/region tab. |
Deferential temperature
Setting | Description |
---|---|
Gradient | Consider temperature gradient (Yes/No). |
Tpositive/negative | Temperature at the surface of the deck is provided in AS5100.2-2004 figure 17.3. The negative temperature difference of vertical sunlight for concrete beam and slab should be -0.4 times of the positive temperature difference. |
The drawing shows a Positive Vertical Temperature gradient in concrete superstructure.
