  Hi every one
  
  I am working on the behavior of FRP confined concrete under axial loading using ANSYS APDL
  
  i have chosen the shell element to model FRP unidirectionel sheet and i have to orient the fiber in lateral direction of the concrete to create the confinement
  
  so i do this following step
  
  preprocessor - section - shell - add/edit -
  
  my question is about the angle to specify for fiber orientation (0 or 90 degree)
  
  could any one help me
  
  i will be very grateful
  
  thank you
