Book Description
Matrix analysis, which employs the finite element method, is the accepted Corps technique for analyzing structures. It is a powerful tool for the analysis of two-dimensional continuums, as well as for the design of beams, trusses, and frames. Recent advances in interactive graphics will make these analysis even more useful to the designer. This paper briefly summarizes the basic concepts and coding procedures common to all program packages. This report deals with computer-aided design for building frames, specifically in the area of analysis programs. Three examples of the work done in the Sacramento District are provided. In recent years, architectural and engineering design for military construction has been complicated by new regulations and technical factors. Environmental and energy conservation considerations, the effects of rapid inflation on material and construction costs, and the effect of energy shortages have all added to the problem. With all the complex factors facing Corps designers, more effective use of the computer is required.

Corps-Wide Conference on Computer-Aided Design in Structural Engineering. Volume IV. Division Presentations
Author: R. M. Wamsley
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 407
Book Description
The papers in this volume were presented by representatives from each U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Division in the continental United States. The papers give an overall view of each Division, its area, responsibilities, and major problems. Geographical and environmental factors influencing the work are covered and the fraction of the work done by contractors and consultants is discussed. A major portion of many of the papers concerns the use of computers in the design and analysis of structures. Projects, types of computer service used, cost and time savings, and design improvements are described. Also discussed are the means the Division uses for disseminating program information, starting new developments, publicizing improvements, discarding old programs, and which areas of structural design need more computer programs. Views on encouraging and controlling the development of computer programs for structural engineering are expressed and procedures and recommendations for both Division and Corps level operations are suggested. Problems experienced in program and equipment use are discussed. Many papers are accompanied by an appendix containing program abstracts. (Author).
