• SETTING OF LZ AND LY

    I am trying to learn the behaviour of LZ and LY parameters of CODE AISC UNIFIED 2016. I notice that KLR is not changing accordingly with rx and ry. MC6X18: rx = 60.2 (for Ly); ry = 26.7 (for Lz) STAAD results: when Lz = 1.0m → KLR = 37.34; L z…

  • Please do check my design (steel design parameters specially)

    Dear sir, Greetings!! Please help me out from this as i am design a peb structure in staad pro its showing fail on 16 mm of web and flange thickness, but my seniors are saying (as per their experience basis only) that the column and rafter will…

  • Unbraced length of physical members

    Is there an easy/quick way to set the unbraced length (LZ) of all members in a model to the length of the physical member they're a part of? I have over 10,000 physical members alone, so it is incredibly time consuming to check the length of each one…

  • RE: member fails in deflection

    In STAAD.Pro y-y is the minor axis and z-z is the major axis for cross sections. These are local axes of members which are different from the global axes. All unsupported lengths are specified with respect to the local axes. So LY and LZ would be unsupported…

  • RE: STEEL STRUCTURE DESIGNIN

    First you should look at the default values for each design parameter and if you think the default value is going to work for your structural member, you do not need to add/assign a design parameter explicitly. However if that is not the case, you would…
