Suitable element for static analysis of medieval stone wall,
-
-
The wall is irregular geometry, about 8m high, 20m long and on average circa 2m thick, with thicker areas . I am new to FE and want to do a simple elastic check to see if there is tension at the base of the wall. It is a standing ruin/cantilever. I have worked out wind loads and have densities etc. for the stone. I hope to move on to plastic analysis, but for now static elastic is adequate. The wall is relative plumb, so foundation is holding. Will do simple support, no need to mimic soil in this instance. Need to complete in the next week. Any tips?
