• Why IS Code 800-2007 LSD fails Ratio INFINITY, while AISC 360-10 ASD passed Beam with Ratio 0.44? Taper beam

    1) Design check by IS Code 800-2007 LSD fails gives result of Bending Ratio = “INFINITY”, which passes with AISC 360-10 ASD Ratio 0.44! Also IS 800 code output does not give any ratio in both major, minor axis! 2) Is this 12 mm Flange thickness is critical…

  • What is the best way to model a double channel flange to flange (top to bottom)

    What is the best way to model a double channel but top to bottom, i.e. top flange of one channel mating the bottom flange of another channel. Options I have though of: 1 - Model as two separate beams with nodes linked by master/slave node specification…

  • RE: How can I connect two bracing members from the top flange of one girder to the bottom flange of another girder?

    Since beam elements are line elements, there is no way to connect braces to flanges or webs of beams. However, as you suggested, you can use offsets to ensure that braces are connecting at the right locations. At any location, both the braces are going…
