INTRODUCTION
This verification manual contains numerical examples for structures prepared and originally calculated
by Autodesk Robot Structural Analysis Professional version 2013. The comparison of results is
still valid for the next versions.
All examples have been taken from handbooks that include benchmark tests covering fundamental
types of behaviour encountered in structural analysis. Benchmark results (signed as “Handbook”) are
recalled, and compared with results of Autodesk Robot Structural Analysis Professional (signed further
as “Robot”).
Each example contains the following parts:
- title of the problem
- specification of the problem
- Robot solution of the problem
- outputs with calculation results and calculation notes
- comparison between Robot results and exact solution
- conclusions.

VERIFICATION EXAMPLE 1
- Axial compression I
Example taken from handbook STRUCTURES METALLIQUES
CM66 - additif 80 - Eurocode 3
written by Jean Morel
TITLE:
Axial compression (Example 1 page 119).
SPECIFICATION:
The column shown below is fully restraint at the bottom end and pinned at the top end about y-y and
z-z axes. So the effective length lk along both of axes is 0,5h = 5000 mm. For the design value of the
compressive force N=73500 daN check the column made of S.235steel. It has been suggested that a
IPE 400 section be considered.
SOLUTION:
Define a new type of member. For analysed member pre-defined type of member COLUMN may be
initially opened. It can be set in Member type combo-box. Press the Parameters button in
DEFINITION-MEMBERS tab, which opens MEMBER DEFINITION – PARAMETERS dialog box. Type
a new name Column 1 in the Member Type editable field. Then, press Buckling Length coefficient Y
icon and select the second icon (value 0.5). Repeat the same operation for Z direction.

In the CALCULATIONS dialog box set Member Verification option for member 1 and switch off Limit
State – Serviceability (only Ultimate Limit state will be analysed). Now, start the calculations by
pressing Calculations button.
Member Verification dialog box with most significant results data will appear on screen. Pressing the
line with results for member 1 opens the RESULTS dialog box with detailed results for the analysed
member.
The view of the RESULTS window is presented below. Moreover, the printout note containing the
same results data as in Simplified results tab of the RESULTS window is added.

VERIFICATION EXAMPLE 1
- Column subjected to axial load
Example based on:
[2] J. Perchat, “Pratique du BAEL 91”, Deuxième èdition, Eyrolles, 1998, Example 2, pp. 98
DESCRIPTION OF THE EXAMPLE:
The capacity of the column is determined with the Robot program and verified against the example
solved in [2]. In [2], the reinforcement is assumed a priori, and the capacity is checked for that
reinforcement. For our purpose, we define the axial force equal to the capacity determined in [2], and
then compare the results.

In the Loads dialog box put the axial force N, equal to the capacity determined in [2].
Fig. 1.3. Loads.
RESULTS OF THE CALCULATIONS:
The reinforcement generated by the program (Fig 1.4.) is different than that determined in [2]. The
greater reinforcement generated by the program is the result of the fact, that 4HA16 is not actually
sufficient reinforcement. Although the calculations with small accuracy carried out in [2] show, that the
capacity is 1310 kN, after the accurate calculations it can be proven that it is in fact 1308 kN, thus
4HA16 reinforcement is not correct. Robot finds the sufficient reinforcement 8HA12.
The calculation of capacity is illustrated in the calculation note:

VERIFICATION EXAMPLE 3
- Column subjected to axial load and biaxial bending
DESCRIPTION OF THE EXAMPLE:
Following example illustrates the procedure of dimensioning of biaxial bending of column, which is
non-sway in one direction, whereas sway in the other. The results of the program are accompanied by
the „manual‟ calculations.
NOTE: In Robot the calculations of compression with bending are carried out using EC2 code [4].

LOADS
NOTE: Let us assume, the moments in Y direction are linearly distributed along the height of the
column. Thus, we define only the ends‟ moments for Y direction. In Z direction however, we assume
the mid-height moment is not a result of the linear distribution. For such a case, Robot let the user
define the moments in the mid-section explicitly.
5.
CALCULATED REINFORCEMENT:
Program generates the reinforcement 6 HA 20.
6.
RESULTS OF THE SECTION CALCULATIONS:
The dimensioning combination is 1.35DL1+1.50LL1
The dimensioning section (where the most unfavorable set of forces is found) is for that combination
the section in the mid-height of the column (marked as (C)).
March 2014
page 30 / 35
Autodesk Robot Structural Analysis Professional - Verification Manual for French Codes
Since the column is found as slender, the second-order effects are taken into account in both
directions.
In parallel the other sections (at the ends of the column) are checked for all combinations of loads.
In the top and bottom ends‟ sections of the column in Y direction, the influence of buckling has not
been taken into account, since the structure is non-sway in this direction. In Z direction however, the
influence of slenderness is taken into account for all three sections of the column.
All the results of total forces for each combination and each section of the column may be seen in the
table “Intersection” at the Column-results layout.

The abovementioned requirement means that the total eccentricity of the axial force in Z

etot  e0  ea  e2
(it is decided to consider the additional eccentricity to act in Z direction, thus
increasing moment My)
NOTE: If the requirement 4.62 is fulfilled (   crit ), the total eccentricity would be calculated as
etot  e0  ea .

The abovementioned requirement means that the total eccentricity of the axial force in Y

CONCLUSIONS
The algorithm of calculations of the total moments (i.e. slenderness effects) in non-sway/sway column
has been presented. The results obtained with the program (see point 6 – Results of the Section
Calculations) are in agreement with the manual calculations (see point 7.3 – Final Result).
