stress to yield strength ratio

Hello forum,

Is it possible to calculate stress to yield strength ratio in STAAD.

Toughness selection according to eurocode requires stress range to be selected (0.75fy, 0.50fy, 0.25fy).

Does STAAD assist for this.

If it dont, i will have to check maximum stress (of course tensile) for every member manually and then compare it with yield strength.

Regards,

Vishal

  • Yes but it reports for individual criteria eg., tension, bending etc separately.

    But I want it for combined loading for given combination.

    for example beam subjected to axial tensile load and bending will result in max tensile stress in bottom flange.

    This stress value is reported in post-processing mode under beam>stresses>max stresses, but i was concerned with its ratio with yield strength.

    Is it possible with STAAD?
