Dear Engineers,
I have perfomed FE Analysis of plate elements. Can some one post design procedure of reinforced concrete plate by using these results.

Dear Er. Chandra Shekhar,

  - which software used ?
  - how the mega elements discretised into FEM ?
  - is it based on sound knowledge of FEM, or just on trial error ?
  - have you refered the software manual for the same ?

If FEM is used then the user must be aware about the 'Interpretation' of the results, obtained from the software. Usually the software developers keep / present the results (in fact they have to) in line with the professional practice and theory.

Have you refered book by 'Parctical FEW - Mr. Nitin Gokhale, Mr. Snjay Deshpande,  Bedekar and Thite (jointly)

Abhay sir,

Is this book usegul for structural engineers...
has it dealt with structural enginering problems or is it suited for mechanical engineers...
can one benefit by grasping concepts of FEM from this book...if one does not have sound background of FEM
pls guide


regards
shuja

Dear Er Chandra Shekhar,

For design of plates on the basis of finite element results, we have to combine the effects of bending and twisting moment resultants (by using the Wood-Armer equations), and resolve them in the directions of provided reinforcement.

The subject is treated well in Clark, L A, "Concrete bridge design to BS5400", Construction Press, London. 1983.

Regards,

Dear Er. Shuja,

   This book is compiled by a Team of IIT-Passed students, with a large experience in FEM and recommended by IIT-Mumbai professors. The book is not specific for civil engineering but give 'theory' and practice both.

   Other than this you may also refer following books on FE :-

1) Finite Element Analysis - by Bathe
2) Finite Element Analysis - by Zinkwitz
3) Finite Element Analysis - by Cook
4) Finite Element Analysis - by Krishnamurthy
5) Finite Element Analysis - by Rao
6) Finite Element Analysis - by Reddi
7) Finite Element Analysis - by Chandrupatala, Belegundu
7+1) Finite Element Analysis - by Ramchandran
9) Finite Element Analysis - by Desai, Abel
10) Practical Finite Element Analysis - by Deshpande, Thatte
11) Practical Finite Element Analysis - by Allen Morris (Wiley Publishers)
12) FEM (Staic / Dynamics ) - by Thomas J. R. Hughes
13) Software Handbook of Ansys
14) Finite Element Analysis - by Aggrawal
15) Finite Element Analysis - by Buchnan
16) Finite Element Analysis - by Gupta
17) Applied Finite Element Analysis - by Segerlind
11+7) Software handbook of Algore

Hope this is more than sufficient to start with.

Go through the Wood & Armor approach -- it's there in this forum itself

Dear  Sefi Engineers ,


A  NEW ENGINEERING BOOK ON THEORY  &  PRACTICE  IN STRUCTURAL  ENGINEERING  :

Why should engineers join together theory and practice?
Edited by Catherine A. Cardno, Ph.D.

Web-Link  of book  :

Whyshould engineers join together theory and practice? | Civil Engineering Source(asce.org  

David Blockley, Ph.D., F.IStructE, F.ICE, emeritus professor of civil engineering at the University of Bristol, in the United Kingdom, is the author of Building Bridges: Between Theory and Practice (London: World Scientific Publishing Co., 2020; 332 pages). In this book, Blockley explores the huge gaps between what engineers know, what they do, and why things go wrong.
Blockley chatted with Civil Engineering about his thoughts on each and how he believes the field of engineering should evolve for the future.
Civil Engineering: What prompted you to put together Building Bridges: Between Theory and Practice?
