• Response Spectrum Analysis & Design Forces Problem for Shear Wall Design in RCDC

    Hi everyone, I have faced a problem importing analysis forces from Staad Pro to RCDC for a shear wall example. I have performed seismic analysis by using the response spectrum method for a box-shaped and cantilever shear wall in StaadPro. I can determine…
  • Area of Steel Reqd. for Tran. Moment for Load Case ____ exceeds the Maximum Allowable for Element # ______ - STAAD.Pro Connect

    Good day. I was analyzing a model and designing the plates I made at STAAD.Pro Advanced Connect Edition 22.00.00.15. After the run analysis, the result gave the above notice on several plate elements I had. I modeled the plate elements using parametric…
  • What is the reason for designing of column without considering the worst load case even though I add several load combinations?

    In my model I analyze and design a G+8 RCC Structure, and the column is designed for only the first load case even though other load combinations give maximum axial force and moments. I attached the screenshots of output file below.
  • Error while updating column design in RCDC

    An error is showing while updating the column design in RCDC as shown below. please provide the solution .
  • Design of Solid slab (Conventional slabs)

    Hello Everyone For a while, I was using an Advanced Concrete Design (RCDC) for the design of a solid slab. Today I tried to learn the RAM concept for the slab designs but I saw a design of strips that had never seen before (When I was using RCDC and…
  • Dummy beam

    Hello Everyone. I create a dummy beam with density=0 and E=0 (Figure.1) then I assign the beam (Figure.2) then Staad Error occurs( ***ERROR*** MATERIAL NAME MUST NOT CONTAIN ANY BLANK SPACE )(Figure.3), What is the solution?
  • How to Model complex Concrete building projects ?
