ERROR:MEMBER- slender section, design skipped

Marie Joy Yamauchi — Thu, 02 Apr 2020 12:29:28 GMT

Hello again!

I'm currently using the code AIJ 2005 and upon running analysis,

some members are skipped because of an error: slender section.

I tried TMAIN and MAIN = 1, and commented the ly lz parameters but it didn't disappear.

SEND HELP.

Please and Thank you!

Modal Frequency Calculation output details

Marie Joy Yamauchi — Fri, 28 May 2021 00:55:29 GMT

Good day, everyone!

My query is about using the Modal Frequency Calculation...

I've been checking the modal frequency of the structure as a whole but the client asked how we deal with the concentrated loads in the middle of the beams.

I said that if they wanted to check the frequency considering the local displacement of the members, we'll have to add joints at the load locations and run the model again.

But they don't want that because it's too much of a hassle and just want the detailed output.

I've never seen a detailed output for Frequency Calculation but is there a detailed output or a way to check the how STAAD deals with members that have a concentrated load at the middle?

Thank you in advance!

STAAD Advanced Concrete design: text schedule font problem

Marie Joy Yamauchi — Fri, 29 Jan 2021 01:01:24 GMT

Good day, people!

I just wanted to ask re: printing of text schedule in STAAD RCDC.

When I print the text schedule, I can't read the reinforcement details because they're all in symbols.

How do I fix this?

Thank you in advance!!!

Reason for slow STAAD.Pro model analysis

Marie Joy Yamauchi — Mon, 14 Dec 2020 07:49:22 GMT

Hello!

I would just like to ask

I am working on a big model like 25m by 180m and upon running the analysis, it stopped at RUN BY LOAD CASE or something.

So I took a part out and removed some plates and turned all braces into truss members.

It's now like 30% of the original model but when running the analysis (Until past the load combination), it took around 20 mins.

Is there a reason why it's taking this long?

I'm not sure if it's because of all the repeat loads but I saw other models with this format and it didn't take that long.

Please and thank you! <3communities.bentley.com/.../Simple-model.STD

STAAD.Pro CONNECT EDITION AIJ 2005

Marie Joy Yamauchi — Tue, 31 Mar 2020 10:44:12 GMT

We used STAAD.Pro SS6 before and to separate the long term case and the short term case, we used the parameter TMP which does not divide the FYLD by 1.5.

In the new CONNECT Edition, the allowable is always divided by 1.5 and the TMP parameter is gone.

How do we solve this without multiplying factors to the load combination?

STAAD Foundation : Multiple columns in one footing

Marie Joy Yamauchi — Fri, 24 Nov 2017 07:05:52 GMT

Is it possible to design a footing carrying 3 columns in STAAD Foundation?

It can't be counted as combined since the 3rd column isn't collinear with the other two.

Is it considered as a mat foundation?

I am using STAAD Foundation v.08.00.01.33

STAAD FOUNDATION : "NOT FOUND" in Output

Marie Joy Yamauchi — Fri, 07 Jul 2017 03:56:21 GMT

I am currently using STAAD FOUNDATION and as far as I know, whenever a footing design fails, no calculation sheet is produced. Somehow, though, calculation sheets are produced but in the output section, it says for main reinforcements "NOT FOUND". Is this a bug or did the footing design really fail?
