LONG TERM MODULAR RATIO USED IN POURING

 

Purpose:  Used to select assumption for composite analysis behavior. 

 

-->    Given in girder input

 

Uses 3n for composite section modulus for section properties in cured slab segments as pouring progresses.  Default is the short term modulus n, under the assumption that creep is not a factor during pouring.
