Large-span meeting room

[gunner]

have a nice day. I tried to model a meeting room using beams with large spans ranging from 16 to 18 meters. This is the first time I will make such a large span structure. Is the flooring system I made with the main beams correct or do I have to use the cassette flooring toolbar? and the upper deck of the building will be used as a navigable area. Are the downloads sufficient? As it stands, there does not appear to be a problem, but I will ask your help in clarifying the situation. I wish everyone good work.

Hello, There is no harm in setting up your system in the form of a beamed plate in this way. However, you should analyze by taking into account the points I will mention below. 1- Solve the structure as a semi-rigid diaphragm. 2- Since your beams are wide, enter live load and coating load on your beams. (You can enter the coating load as wall load). 3- For the floors, take the live load of 0.5t/m2 since the building is a meeting room, and check the covering load. Since you have a span of 4-18 meters, I recommend that you make the beam depths minimum 80-90 cm. (When you apply the first 3 items, your beams will not save in the current situation.) 4- Review the beam reinforcements after the analysis. (The width may not be enough because the reinforcements will be outnumbered) 5-TS Due to the -500 crack boundaries, non-building humid environmental conditions choose 0.2 mm as the floor will be a walkable area.
