Application 1. Reinforced Concrete

Structure

This example of Reinforced Concrete is composed for users to acquire ageneral understanding of creating structural drawings by using the designresults of midas Gen.

Before using midas DrawingShop in an actual project, it is highly recommended

that you exercise the examples with a complete understanding of『Principle of

Drawing』available in the User’s Guide.

In this example, the process of generating structural drawings of a ReinforcedConcrete structure using midas DrawingShop is explained below.

1. Import design results of midas Gen

2. Auto-generate drawings in midas DrawingShop

3. Edit drawings

4. Print drawings

Import Design Results of midas GenThis function imports design results from midas Gen.

Import design results classified by section IDs such as diameter, spacing and number ofreinforcement bars from midas Gen.

1. Click『File』>『Import』>『midas Gen』.

2. Click button and select the path of『fn.mgn』file exported from midas Gen.

3. Check all members in to use the same diameter, spacing and number ofreinforcement bars designed in midas Gen.

4. Select 『By Sections』in to import the most conservative design result

among the members which have the same section IDs in midas Gen.

5. Define proportioning method of legs for Column Ties.

1) midas Gen: Arrangement according to the number of legs designed in midasGen.

2) Spacing Rule: Ignore the number of legs designed in Gen; replace the tiesaccording to arrangement rules considering constructability.

3) Select Max.: Arrange using maximum number of legs calculated from (1) and(2).

6. If you check “Auto-adjustment of rebars to defined spacing”, it is possible to

rearrange the spacing according to the spacing of reinforcement defined in

『Tools』>『Preferences』>『Spacing』.

7. Virtual members modeled in midas Gen for idealizing real behavior of structure inmidas Gen should be checked. In other words, delete unnecessary sections for

drawing.

6. Click .

By MembersImport design results of midas Gen by members. It is possible to rearrange theplacement of reinforcement considering constructability by using the requiredrebar area for each member calculated in Gen.

By SectionsAssign the most conservative results to all members which have the samesection IDs. If you give section numbers considering member grouping in

midas Gen, then check on 『By sections』. In this case, the name of group is

determined from the section name you defined in midas Gen. You can alsorearrange the placement of reinforcement considering constructability.

Auto-Placement of Reinforcement

Re-arrange reinforcement bars for beams considering constructability according to the

guidelines defined in『Define Design Code』

Re-arrange reinforcement bars and calculate the amount of reinforcement requiredignoring the diameter, number and spacing designed in midas Gen.

Don’t execute this command if you want to use the diameter, number and spacing ofreinforcement equally.

Process of re-arrangement is shown below.

1. Click 『Model』>『Beam』>『Auto-Placement of Rebars』.

Edit Reinforcement Information

You can edit rebars designed by midas Gen or auto-placed by『Auto-Placement of

Rebars』.

There are two ways to edit information of bar arrangement in DrawingShop.(1) Method 1: Editing each member by double clicking.(2) Method 2 : Editing bar arrangements in a Table.

Method 1: Edit each member by double clicking on the member as shown below.

1. To edit bar arrangement for individual members, double click each member.(You can modify the bar arrangement as required. A “Warning Dialogue” will appear if

any rules of bar arrangement are not followed.)

2. Click 『Apply to Member』 when you want to apply the modified details only to

a specific member. If you want to use the same details for all members in the group

then click 『Apply to Group』.

3. Click after modifying all the information for bar arrangement.

『Modify Beam Rebars』window is as shown below.

Method 2: Editing bar arrangements in Table is as shown below.

1. Execute 『Model』>『Beam』>『Change Rebars on Table』.

(You can modify the bar arrangement as required. A “Warning Dialogue” will appearif any rules of bar arrangement are not followed.)

2. It is possible to select members individually by using “Select” button.

Otherwise, you can also select multiple members in the same column at one time by

selecting members while holding 『Ctrl』Key.

1) If you click a member (Beam) on plan with holding 『Ctrl』Key, then all

members on Continuous Beam are selected.2) Vertical member(Column or Wall) of all floors are selected by clicking and

holding 『Ctrl』Key on plan.

3. The procedure to apply the modified details to each member is the same as inMethod 1.

Tip Selection of ObjectsThere are two ways of object selection.

1. Select the selection type in “Select Toolbar”

Grouping signs appear when 『Auto-Grouping of Members』 is executed.

The numbers in brackets are the member numbers defined in midas Gen.

You can modify the bar arrangement after auto-grouping of members

with『Modify Rebars』option.

It is possible to re-group members by using 『Auto-Grouping of Members』 even

after modifying bar arrangements.

Manual Grouping

With this option, member group names imported from midas Gen, can be modified. It isnot necessary to use the manual grouping option if you use the same group name as inmidas Gen.

1. Click『Model』>『Beam』>『Manual Grouping』. A window as shown below

appears on the left side of the screen.

2. Select “Girder” or “Beam” from the Combo Box . Then, select the group namethat you want to modify. All the members of the selected group appear on the grid.

3. If you want to move some members of the selected group to another group, selectthe members marked with this grid name and then click the arrow button.

4. Move the selected member to another group now. If you want to change it to an

existing group, choose that group in the Combo Box . If the group does not exist,input a new group name in

5. Click for updating the modified group information.

6. Click to finish manual grouping.

1. Click 『Model』>『Assign story group』 to auto-define one floor group which

has the same number, length and dimension of member. (It is possible to re-define the floor group which was auto-set after checking.)

2. Defined floor groups will be reflected when making member lists.

When you modify the member’s group name to existing groups,1. An error message will appear if the dimension and amount of

reinforcement of the section is different from other members in theexisting group.

2. A warning message will appear if the amount of reinforcement is lessthan that of the existing members in the group.
