ECC-i

 

Purpose:  Used to define eccentricity of girder with respect to the centroid of the slab in preliminary analysis using plate and eccentric beam finite element model in Girder System Design Projects.  (Not applicable to Line Girder Projects.)

 

-->    Given in girder system input

 

Lists of distances (inches or mm) at tenth points from the center of the slab to the neutral axis of the girder steel.  (Only effective for preliminary analysis of a plate and eccentric beam finite element model in Girder System Design Projects.  Re-analysis in Girder System Design Projects and analysis in Girder System Rating Projects determines the beam member eccentricity from composite girder section properties.)
