First, we list the lower and upper fiber stresses in concrete B1 at 100 years. • Step 2. It is then checked whether these values exceed the admissible stress. • Step 3. If this is the case, we are looking for the date on which concrete B1 is completely cracked. If this is not the case, we go directly to step 6. • Step 4. Two load cases are created: one before cracking and one after the removal of concrete B1 by adding its own weight. • Step 5. We relaunch the calculations and we list the stresses suffered by concrete B2 at 100 years because removing concrete B1 increases the stresses in the profile and in concrete B2. • Step 6. We check that concrete B2 does not reach its admissible limit, and we proceed the same way as for B1 if this is the case. Finally, we list the maximum stress in the steel profile and check that it remains acceptable.
