staad pro output file

Question

hello, 
 
 I am doing a analysis of a 2D frame steel strucutre. The problem is that I don't have the ratio between strengh and efforts of my beams in my output file so I don't know how to interpret my results. 
 Thank you

It seems you are asking for the utilization ratio due to code checking of steel members. 
 
Can you please refer the following examples in the STAAD.Pro Online Help document - 
1. "Tutorial 1 - Steel Portal Frame" under "Getting Started and Tutorials" - Refer the "Viewing the Output File" section. 
2. "Application Examples" > "American"/"British" Examples > Example 1 - Plane Frame with Steel Design. 
 
Hope this helps.

You can find them in Help > Contents

Followed by Getting Started Tutorial as shown:

While the dataset or STAAD model for this example can located in the Drive where you installed STAAD. The path for the same is here: X:\SProV8i SS6\STAAD\Examp 
 
 On the other hand, you have no design commands in your STAAD file. I have added CHECK CODE command to show the utilization ratio in Post-Processing Mode > Beam > Utility Check. 
 The modified file is attached below for your reference.

Hi Alexandre, 
 
"Codes" as in Design Codes? If so, the file attached in my last comment was checked according to Indian Code of Steel. Although you can delete the same and design as per your country codes.
