Subject: Concrete Spring Constant for Base Plate Modeling
Hi,
I am modeling base plate on the 6000 psi concrete column and I want to put concrete compression only spring to represent concrete. The problem is what is the compressive spring constant of concrete. Could you help me to get it?
Thank you so much.
John
