Dear All,
How to apply a cyclic load in Staad pro.
Say 10kN acting at 30minutes for 2 years duration.
Is there any load application option available to specify these loadings to structure in STAAD?
Regards,
Parthasarathy G
This is the kind of time based non-linear analysis that we envision ADINA being well suited to. We should have a Bentley licensed version of ADINA soon, with STAAD integration to follow.
Could you please help me with more details on the problem before I can try to help you? How does this load look like in the Force - time graph? Is this load acting in pulses? What is the real field condition that would produce such a load?
