4 Why Construction Stage Analysis? Each temporary structure arrangement ca lead to critical internal forces or displacements in specific members; Each temporary structure at a particular stage of construction affects the subsequent stages; It is common to install and dismantle temporary supports and cables during construction; The structural behaviours such as deflections and stress re-distribution continue to change during and after the construction due to varying time dependent properties such as concrete creep, shrinkage, modulus of elasticity (aging) and tendon relaxation; The safest and most economical construction process must be chosen, especially for complex construction operations.

6 Conventional Analysis vs Construction Stage Analysis General analysis is performed under the assumption that all loads are simultaneously applied to a completed structure; This assumption is not valid in a real construction sequence because most bridges are constructed by segments and the dead load acts sequentially.

10 Construction Stage Analysis in Midas Civil Time dependent material properties Creep effects of concrete members having different maturities; Shrinkage effects of concrete members having different maturities; Time dependent compressive strength gain for concrete members; Prestressing tendon relaxation. Expression of Construction Stages Creation (activation) and deletion (deactivation) of members with certain maturities; Loading (activation) and unloading (deactivation) of loads relative to time; Change of boundary conditions relative to time.

12 Procedure for Construction Stage Analysis Create a structural model. Assign elements, loads and boundary conditions to be activated or deactivated to each construction stage together as a group; Define the time dependent material properties such as creep and shrinkage. The time dependent material properties may be user defined or defined by the standards such as ACI and CEB-FIP; Link the defined time dependent material properties to the general material properties through which the change of the concrete member material properties with time are automatically calculated and reflected; Create the construction stages and time steps considering the true sequence of construction; Define the construction stages using the predefined Element groups, Boundary groups and Load groups; Specify the desired analysis conditions and carry out the analysis; Combine the results of the construction stage analysis and that of the completed structure analysis as necessary.

14 Time Dependent Material Properties Creep Increase in water/cement ratio increases creep; Creep decreases with increases in the age and strength of concrete when the concrete is subjected to stress; Creep deformations increase with increase in ambient temperature and decrease in humidity; It also depends on many other factors related to the quality of the concrete and conditions of exposure such as the type, amount, and maximum size of aggregate; type of cement; amount of cement paste; size and shape of the concrete mass; amount of steel reinforcement; and curing conditions. Shrinkage The rate of shrinkage decreases rapidly with time; Finer aggregates and finer gels result in increased shrinkage; The moisture content of the concrete and the relative humidity of the ambient medium have a big influence on carbonation shrinkage; Harder aggregates with higher modulus of elasticity decrease shrinkage.

17 Construction Stage Definition Group activation/deactivation concept; Four types of groups: Structure groups; Load groups; Boundary groups; Tendon groups. Elements can be activated at any age, with properties accounting for the passage of time; Partial or total force redistribution can be considered at deactivation of elements; Loads can be activated/deactivated at any time during a construction stage; Supports can be activated/deactivated at any time, either at the deformed or at the original position of the nodes.
