ABSTRACT:
The invention provides a method of analyzing a building made from Expanded Poly Styrene (EPS) which is coated on the inside and outside with Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete (GFRC) or other strengthening coating. The building is designed in a CAD program. Then, the building is divided up into small volumes in the CAD program or in a Finite Element Analysis program using an automeshing program. Plates are added to the inner and outer surfaces of the volumes using copying and automeshing commands. Appropriate characteristics of the EPS and GFRC are assigned to the volumes and plates. A FEA analysis can then be run.
