The TIP About Steel-Concrete Beam Modelling Every ENGINEER Should Know

Dr Jawed Qureshi presents simple finite element modelling steps to realistically model steel-concrete composite beams. This is part of my conference presentation at SEMC 2010 in Cape Town South Africa.
If you are an engineer and struggling to understand how to model steel-concrete composite beams or short push test then this video is for you. The video covers the context, model creation, contact interactions, material models, analysis procedure and crucially how to interpret the results.
