I am trying to model a concrete girder bridge deck using ansys. There are some u tubes available in answer to my questions but most of them are in Arabic language which I don't understand. Any body can send some u tube links that are available in English or guide me as to how to model this deck. I am comfortable modelling just a plane concrete deck but I don't know how to insert rebars into the concrete and give contact properties to simulate the composite action between rebars and concrete.
Please help me.
You need to make nodes, join them, give them properties of rebars, etc
This youtube video will help u.

Hi Umer Farooq:
Thanks. I am using ANSYS APDL not Mutiphysics. The u tube you suggested doing the modelliung using ansys Multiphysics. Can you tell me as to how to use with ANSYS APDL.
