طراحی ابتدایی سازه های پوسته ای (PRELIMINARY DESIGN OF SHELLS)
The principal purposes for preliminary design of any structure is: (1) To obtain quantities of materials for making estimates of cost. (2) Obtain a clear picture of the structural action, (3) Establish the dimensions of the structure, and, (4) Use the preliminary design as a check on the final design.
It is not expected that these preliminary design calculations be precise, but rather they should be within an accepted tolerance. The worst way to start a design is to immediately set up a finite element analysis. Any new type of structure requires an extended lead time to obtain a thorough understanding of the structural action.
The discussion of preliminary analysis here, has been restricted to principals rather than to presentation of calculations. Given these principals, the engineer should be able to set up his own calculations. Do not try to design shells without a thorough study of the relevant sections of the current American Concrete Association regulations. There are differences from the normal structures.
Thickness of shells
The thickness of the slab elements are normally governed by the number of layers of reinforcing bars. For shells of double curvature, there are usually only two layers so the minimum thickness could be:
Two 3/8 in. bars, two 1/2 in. of cover equals 1.75 inches.
However a little tolerance should be added. For a barrel shell or a folded plate:
Two 1/2 in. bars, one 3/4 in. bar, two 1/2 in. of cover equals 2.75 in.
Of course, the concrete stresses should be checked, but they seldom control. Do not think that a shell will be stronger if it is thicker than required.
For a description of the structural elements of the shells discussed here, the reader should first study the presentations in Mark Ketchum's Types and Forms of Shell Structures

First find the longitudinal and shear (diagonal tension) reinforcing required for a typical interior element of the structure.
1. A barrel shells acts as a beam in the long direction and as an arch in the curved area. The arch is supported by internal shears. Approximate values for the bending moments in the arch are summarized in the following sketch.
2. The area of reinforcing is obtained by estimating the effective depth of the beam element, from the center of reinforcing to the center of compression. The force in the reinforcing is equal to the bending moment divided by the effective depth. It may require several approximations to get a fair value. The area of reinforcing is, of course, the force divided by the allowable stress.
3. The tension in the diagonal direction is determined first by equating the longitudinal force to the shear forces.
4. The sum of the shearing forces equals the longitudinal forces. Let S equal the unit shear at the end of the beam. Then: S times the width of the shell times the length divided by 4 equals the longitudinal force.
If there are no other forces on an element at the neutral axis of the beam, then the diagonal tension equals the shear. From this information, a pattern of diagonal tension bars can be constructed.
5. The horizontal reaction of the arch elements of the shell must be contained by an rigid frame and a horizontal tie. Assume that this is simply a wide arch equal to half of the span. An approximation for the horizontal force would be equal to the load per foot on this arch times the arch span, squared divided by 8 and the rise. The thrust in the arch can be determined from this and the vertical reaction.
6. The edge spans of the shell should be supported by intermediate columns. The stiffness of a barrel shell at the outside edges is simply not stiff or strong enough to carry the required loads. The shell reinforcing at the edge members acts more like a typical arch and should be reinforced with two layers of bars.

The design of folded plate roof structures follows the design of barrel shells, but is much simpler because the elements are all essentially beams.
1. Support the folded plate at its longitudinal edges by frequent columns as was suggested for barrel shells.
2. Analyse and design the slab element as a continuous beam on fixed supports, including the first spans, normally a simple support. If it is haunched, then as a continuous haunched beam. 3. Design a typical longitudinal interior element as a beam by the usual methods.
4. Support the ends of the folded plates by rigid frames. In this case the frames are loaded by the shear forces from the slab element and are in the plane of the frame members.

Following is a sketch of a typical inverted umbrella hypar. The principal elements are:
The membrane equation for a hypar gives the direct stresses in the shell:
Shear = Tension = wab/2f, These loads are transfered directly to the supporting ribs through shear, and are used to design the ribs. The internal ribs are in compression and the external ribs are in tension. In both cases, the direct stress varies from zero at the edges to maximum at the center.
If the external ribs are placed above the shell then the edge member will be prestressed in positive moment and the edge of the shell will tend to deflect upward which is most desirable. It is also desirable to design this member for the additional weight of the edge member. The deflection at the end of the rib is critical.
The central column should be designed for some unbalanced load. The connection to the shell defies analysis, but tests by the Portland Cement Association have proved the strength of these types of joints. Be sure to include adequate reinforcing for any contingency.

The design of this structure follows, with exceptions, the design of the umbrella hypar. Please refer to the previous example. The sketch shows the essential elements:
The top ridge member is in compression and may require additional area above that of the shell. This is a long compression member and is free to deflect downward with the possibility of ultimate buckling, (Which has happened.) It is, therefore, advisable to camber this member upward to offset this tendency.
The slanting side ribs are also in compression and to some extent in bending, and sould be designed for some of the weight of the rib, say one quarter for a start.

DOMES OF REVOLUTION
Return to start of program
The translation shell is simply a square dome as shown by the sketch. The shape is generated by a curve moving along another curve. If the curves are circles, then every vertical section is the same. The dome is usually supported by arches. There are three principal design areas: منبع :http://ketchum.org/
