When designing Beam to beam shear connection using End plate per Eurocode, the weld check performed by RAM connection seems to be having a few errors as explained below. Weld size considered is leg size, whereas throat thickness should be considered…

Hello Does anyone have a code or a macro to generate wind loads automatically in STAAD using Eurocode 1991-1-4 for a long duopitch roof structure ? I only have the IS875 in the drop down options for 'Wind Load Generator'. I tried to apply the…

Dear Colleagues, (i take back what i've posted earlier) The method as per the link ( Mat analyzed in STAAD.Pro and designed in STAAD.Foundation Advanced ) would have been useful for structures such as Buildings with Basements, Underground Tanks / Pits…

Hi, I have created a section with section wizard by using plate elements in section builder as attached. i have exported to staad.pro with Prismatic option. Its not getting design with the Euro code and it showing the warning message as * DESIGN NOT…

Hi, While designing Moment Connection with Haunch in RAM Connection, I find the shear demand for column web panel check does not change based on haunch depth. However the demand changes when the beam section size is changed. Can you please explain why…

Hi, I do not see the RC Designer or Concrete Design tab in the workflow. I have STAAD Pro Connect Edition V22 Update 4. Can you please let me know where do I find the Concrete Design or RC Designer tab to perform concrete design for Eurocode?

good day, i am trying to design this cantilever beam from etabs in RCDC 9.4. but i end up getting this error.

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…

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?

Hello Everyone How can I reduce the development length bars in the beam (Figure 1-1), I'm running to get a result like this beam (figure 2-1) Figure 1-1 Figure 2-1

Hello Sir RCDC is designed and Detailed all the slab one by one but I want to detail all Top and Bottom Reinforcement of the two-way slab once, what should I do.

How do I change Mton/Cm to Kn/m

I am using Member loading ( UDL ) and getting warning in the analysis output, which for me seems like a software bug, can you please guide me. Input LOAD 20 WIND: WIND X MEMBER LOAD 13 UNI Y 3.28 0 3.25 0 I have give f1,f2,f3 and f4 as the manual…

Hello, Currently, I am using STAAD pro Connect edition's latest version. Following are question mainly targeting of RCC and Steel structure design in STAAD Pro and in other Bentley tools per Eurocode with German N ational Annex (NA). 1. Can…

Hello Bentley, As mentioned in below post, Bentley will be providing validation service in near future. https://communities.bentley.com/products/ram-staad/f/ram-staad-forum/147916/staad-pro-v8i-ss6-validation-for-eurocode I just want to know when…

Hello everyone, I have a question about the bi-axial bending and torsion calculations in StaadPro based on EC3. I designed a beam (RHS) subjected to bi-axial bending and torsion. I am comparing my hand calculations with Staad pro unity check but…

Hello, I attach my Staad model for your attention. I am wondering why the plane I have cut does not give any values for Fx, Fy and Fxy? Also I cannot obtain a number of the outputs from the cutting plane such as global moment etc? I am looking…

After being disappointed to see 4 forecast delivery dates missed since December '17 I am really hoping STAAD(X).Tower is finally released. If not I am eager to receive a realistic and achievable delivery forecast from Bentley.

Has the planned STAAD(X).Tower Eurocode development been released? I had been advised it was due 31st March.

I am designing column splice joint of bearing type according to EN 1993-1-8 There exists net tension in the flange, hence I will have to use preloaded bolts & hence apply slip resistance check. 1) Now when i enable check slip resistance, i dont find…

Hello Seth, Is it possible to design a moment connection as attached below in RAM, Of course considering reactions and moments from both side beams (on flange and most imp on web of column)? Is it possible with Eurocode? Or we do it only for…

Hello Modestas, I am trying to design connection as per EC-3 and using European sections but RAM is showing error as below: Also tell me is it possible to design Column-Column bolted end plate flushed from all sides in STAAD. Where can I see the…

Hello forum, Is it possible to calculate stress to yield strength ratio in STAAD. Toughness selection according to eurocode requires stress range to be selected (0.75fy, 0.50fy, 0.25fy). Does STAAD assist for this. If it dont, i will have to check…

Does anyone know when the STAAD(X).Tower Eurocode development release date is? I was advised January 2018 on a previous post but I am now wondering what the specific date will be.

Hello forum, What is the term squash load , which appears in eurocode output file? Is it related to cross section classification? To check whether web is in compression or bending? OR Flange is in full compression or partial compression? Is…
