• Wind Load on Tapered Section -reg.

    Dear Colleagues, current version : STAAD.Pro CONNECT Edition - Version 22.12.00.142 there was a situation where we had to find out the lateral forces due to wind on a light pole (tapered profile) and provide suitable support for the same. Wind was…
  • RE: Guy Wires and Steel Poles

    You need to insert nodes to add the guy wires. Your property assignments are getting messed up when you are inserting the nodes as each segment is being assigned the same tapered tube property and that is in turn messing up the rendered view. You need…
  • RE: How is the unity check calculated for a tapered tubular section using the ASCE solver?

    The ASCE10-97 implementation in STAAD.Pro also has the design rules for ASCE publication 72 embedded in it. That publication is specifically meant for the design of tapered tubular poles. So, if the member’s cross section happens to be a tapered tubular…
  • Analysis and Design of round tapered Aluminum Light Pole

    I'm am performing an analysis and design for Round Tapered Aluminium light pole. My project is in a highly seismic location so the design must meet both wind and seismic requirements. I'm running my model in STAAD.Pro , I can't seen to get the program…
