Dear Sir,
I am having trouble designing some of the connections.I have also grouped the unassigned / undersigned members as BCF, BCW & BG for the first floor only. Please show me how to avoid it and design these members.

Please attach the related STAAD.Pro model and let us know the exact version of STAAD.Pro which you are using.
Sir I am using Stadd.pro version 22.04.00.40.

Which node?
Sir I am attaching an image for better idea, as their are many nodes. this is an image of first floor level.
Please let us know at least one node where Beam to Girder connection cannot be created.
Sir node number 4,29,42,60,5,30,43,61 & 98, are some of the nodes that are fully or partially unassigned with BG template.
Nodes 4, 60 and 98 are a beam to column connection, not a beam girder connection. I see that the remaining nodes which you mentioned do have a beam girder connections assigned and designed.
If you look at node 1781 , which is connected between beam nos 70,4921,5445, two BG connections, while node 1776 is also connected with three members is not provided with similar connections.
It is enough to have a single BG connection at the single node. If beam and girder members are identify correctly, the results at both BG connection in the same node should be the same. You can check how beam and girder members are identified by clicking on the 'Identify Beam and Girder' icon in the menu.
Sir, I have tried swapping the beam girder but it did not help. pl show me what could be the problem. Also is their a literature that I could study for connection design.
Make sure that the girder beam is the same member at both BG connections at node 1781. This can be done by using a 'Identify Beam and Girder' tool. Once this is done, both BG connections at node 1781 will have the same ratio.
Yes Sir, they are same member, but connections at node 1781 are designed from both sides and 1776 are not.
