Hi guys. I am a new user in staad. I tried modeling my file but i can't run it as a whole. Can someone give me tips on how to model this on my staad?
at the same time, i am trying to analyze it part by part, but can't seem quite to run it due to instability errors. Please help me on how to run this structure as a whole. This is my trial partial staad file.
Thank you in advance for those who will help me. God Bless.

Dear user,
There are a lot of training videos in our learn server. You can access those items from below link.
https://learn.bentley.com/app/Public/ViewLearningPathDetails?lpId=112344
Regarding your model, there are some modelling error. The connectivity between the members are not proper. You can check it from Utilites > Structure Tools > Multiple Structure.
You can break the beams at selected nodes or intersect the beams as appropriate from geometry tab as shown below.
I would suggest you to view the learn videos from the attached path first and then try to make a model.
Good day. I have already created a structure that has all the beams needed just like on the perspective. But i am really having a hard time analyzing how i can transfer my loads to rafters > purlins > I-beams > Columns > Footing. That is why i created the one i posted because i wanted to transfer the loads part by part. I was just asking how can i use staad on my structure as a whole. I would appreciate if you can tell me how can i do it and it would be a great reference for my future works. This is the file that has all the structural beams. Thank you in advance and God Bless.

I would also highly recommend that you go through the learn server videos or go through a STAAD.Pro training which should clear all doubts that you are having now.
Thank you.
