• Model Vertical Bracing Column Face - Offset Centre Node vs. Shift Node Coordinates

    I am Modelling an existing building with Vertical Bracing between columns. Due to the presence of infill masonry walls, the bracing is located on the column flanges (not centered on the web) Bracing has been modelled offset to column face (see picture…

  • Moment Transfer Rigid Links

    Hello, I have created a STAAD Model in which I created some offsets to simulate how the real moments would look like. Please see the model. In the model, the rafters are on top of the edge beams. In reality, there should be no moment transfer between…

  • Incorrect results in structures with rigid diaphragms and offsets in y direction

    When aplying Master/Slave node on a floor that contains beams with offsets in "y" direction, I obtain incorrect results of Mz and shear y for vertical loads, but after eliminating these offsets, the results become correct. Why?

  • RE: Ram Elements -Attachment point

    You can shorten the post using member rigid end offset, or you can drop the beam down using a cardinal point offset (2). For more see this:

  • RE: Total beam length in steel beam module

    RAM Steel always designs steel beams center to center of supports, unless you assign the beams to have offsets in the Modeler (Layout -> Beams -> Offsets). I usually use offsets to offset a beam laterally from a support, but you could also use offsets…

  • error when setting the "offsets" in the area load

    Good day to all. Prompt. When setting the area load on the structure encountered a problem. If you register in the "offsets" offset profiles so that they lay close to each other area load generates an error. But if they leave without displacement calculation…

  • Inclined Load Path due to Member Offset at one Node

    Dear Staad Experts, Attached is a simple Joist with tapered ends. For making the model as close to the real application as possible I have applied a "OFFSET" so as to achieve the top flange straight, due to this the NA has become slanting for the…
