How to get rid of tapered assignment in Physical Modeler?

I am trying to convert my Physical model to the analytical and it is failing at the integrity check. The error message says that members that do no support tapering have been assigned tapered properties. The member the message lists have indeed been assigned tapered properties by mistake in the past. But I went in the "Tapered Members" spreadsheet and deleted the tapered properties for the mentioned members. However, staad still complains about it and doesn't let me create the analytical model.

Is there something else I should do to those members?

  • The above same issue is occurring to me as well. Whatever i tried the taper assignment does give error while checking. I tried to Change member types too, still same error. Analytical model also does not create. Staad version 22.10.00.153  i

  • You may fix the model by using the free application named "DB Browser for SQlite":

    1) Open the .stdp file with that application;
    2) Go to Browse Data tab and select Members option from the drop down list:

    3) Find columns Members_Width1 and Members_Width2 and delete all values from these cells:

    4) Save the database and then reopen STAAD.Pro model.

    If you want, I can send you this modified .stdp file or attach it here.



  • Worked by deleting values from Members_Width1 and 2. Thanks to you for your method to achieve and resolve this anomaly. Requesting to please either remove these type of anomaly automatically OR it should not happen in first place, in PM to AM workflow
