1.1.16 Design and Analysis

OpenBrIM conducts stuctural analysis and design using DesignRun, DesignCode, and Check objects.

DesignRun object specifies which design code should the analysis and design be verified.

DesignCode object contains a set of criteria or design checks necessary for analysis and design of the structure.

Check object is a criteria based on the specified design code which should be checked against the actual analysis and design of the structure.

Example

<O N="Design and Analysis" T="Project">

<O N="Variables" T="Group">

<P N="H" V="3" />

<P N="W" V="2" />

</O>

<O T="DesignRun">

<P N="Code" V="Sample Code" T="DesignCode" />

</O>

<O N="Sample Code" T="DesignCode">

<O N="Sample Check 1" T="Check">

<P N="Criteria" V="H .LE. W" />

</O>

<O N="Sample Check 2" T="Check">

<P N="Criteria" V="H .GE. W" />
