    This document summarizes a test of SAP2000 software that modeled a solid plate subjected to a temperature increase. The plate was restrained at the edges and had a uniform temperature rise of 100 degrees F. SAP2000 calculated stresses in the plate that exactly matched hand calculations, validating its ability to accurately model temperature loading on solid elements. The document describes the plate geometry, properties, restraints, loading, analysis results, and includes the independent hand calculations for comparison.

    SOLID –TEMPERATURE LOAD

    PROBLEM DESCRIPTION
    In this example, a 10-inch-square plate, 1 inch thick, restrained at the edges, is
    subjected to a 100° F temperature rise that is constant through the thickness of
    the plate. A 10x10x1 mesh is used for the plate. Plate stresses resulting from the
    temperature load are compared with hand-calculated results.

    The perimeter joints at the bottom of the plate have the Ux, Uy and Uz degrees of
    freedom restrained. The perimeter joints at the top of the plate have the Ux and
    Uy degrees of freedom restrained.

    TECHNICAL FEATURES OF SAP2000 TESTED


     Temperature loading for solid elements

    RESULTS COMPARISON
    The independent results are hand calculated based on Equation 1.3.4 on page 9 in
    Cook and Young 1985.
