Considering the figure, with beam no. 162 the secondary beam and beams no. 160 and 161 the cantilever beams. Do we release Mz for beam no. 162?
I usually do 0.95,but lets wait for bentley technical team they will give a correct answer
There is nothing wrong in applying moment releases to beam 162. I think full moment releases should work fine. Partial moment releases might help to eliminate some instability warnings if such occurs. In most of the cases MP 0,99 should be good.
I used 0.95 just like the other user (Joseph) said. Is that okay?
Yes, I think.
