FEMAP: Shear Effect Contribution in Cantilever Beam (K Factor)

Validation of FEMAP model of a cantilever beam with end load. Deformation is calculated considering bending and shear effects and FEMAP beam, plate, and solid models are developed.

Quick Note: Remember that in general plate/shell elements are not good in shear and solid elements are not good in bending for thin structures
