Temp Diff 5400

1. The document analyzes the vertical temperature differences and resulting stresses in a 225mm thick concrete section using a nonlinear analysis method. 2. For a positive temperature difference of 17°C at the top decreasing to 4°C at the bottom, the analysis finds a maximum tensile stress of -41.82 N/mm^2 and maximum compressive stress of 11.14 N/mm^2. 3. For a reverse temperature difference of -6.68°C at the top decreasing to 0°C at the bottom, the maximum tensile stress is 19.68 N/mm^2 and maximum compressive stress is -5.288 N/mm^2.

The stress s at level z is s = Ez(e0+yz-aztz)


The axial strain e0 and curvature y can be obtained by substituting the equation for
stress s into the equations for force and moment equilibrium.

EI about centroid = 15287368 kNm2 EI about centroid = 15287368 kNm2
EA for Section = 41513012 kN EA for Section = 41513012 kN
Releasing Moment M = -1014.308 kNm Releasing Moment M = -705.216 kNm
Releasing Force F = 2713.681 kN Releasing Force F = -1691.33 kN

The stresses due to a releasing force and releasing moment can now be calculated using
the values for e0 and y.
