• Regarding loads

    Could you tell me? how to calculate joint weight. Best reards shahkar
  • How do i review my results after a day of the analysis?This is because after i have finish the analysis and the design i can trace the results when i close the program. thank you.

    how do retrieve my result output long after close of program?

    Can any one upload a model?
  • Slab concrete Cover

    Hello everyone, I'm just a beginner here in STAAD. I'm just trying to learn STAAD mostly from the communities and I observe that most of the Plates are modeled with the Z axis pointing downward so I assume that the Top concrete cover is the -Z axis…
  • Transfer force in Plan

    In STAAD, we are getting the transfer forces for column - vertical bracing junction, however is there any way to get these transfer forces from plan beam - bracing junction.

  • Floor vibration

    Hi, I'm studying the floor vibrations on a model that consisting of three floor A, B and C, despite floor A and C are symmetric, they show different ultimate acceleration because STAAD considers one of the girders only for calculating the results of…
  • Design of single angle as per IS 800 and AISC 360-10 codes in STAAD

    While designing single angle per IS code in STAAD pro software, the output report shows design based on principle axis for which the angle design qualifies. However when the same design is performed in STAAD per AISC 360-10 code, the output report shows…
  • composite action

    I'm trying to model the attached floor system, and I need to make sure following points: 0- Can I draw the composite deck to cover all the floor area or do I have to draw it for every panel in the floor. because when I'm trying to cover the whole…
  • Different STAAD REVS Give Different Unity Ratio

    There is a big difference in utilization ratio due to different STAAD versions (STAAD SS6 20.07.11.70 VS STAAD SS4 20.07.09.11). Would you please explain why for the same model, STAAD with different versions give different UCs and which is the correct…
  • RC Design Anchorage Requirements not met

    Good day. This is my first time trying RC design on STAAD and I am experiencing some trouble with the beam designs. I am only trying to find out the sufficient reinforcements for my particular load cases but STAAD keeps mentioning that my beams do…

  • Dynamic eccentricity for earthquake loading

    Good Day, I have done a seismic analysis and noticed the following note: ***NOTE: SEISMIC LOAD IS ACTING AT CENTER OF MASS FOR RIGID DIAPHRAGM. TORSION FROM STATIC ECCENTRICITY (esi) IS INCLUDED IN ANALYSIS. DYNAMIC ECCENTRICITY APPLIED = DEC -…
  • How to identify brace members in .std file

    Hello, I am new to STAAD and I am trying to model a simple beam structure (square ). I want to check if I apply a load on it and check the stress value after simulation. If the stress value exceeds the certain value , then I want to apply the cross…
  • Slenderness Ratio

    Good day. I am having some trouble with my design of an office/warehouse. The model may have more issues than I'm aware of but for now my concern is with the designed sections. The steel sections that STAAD recommends are too large and are similar…
  • Special Moment frame Stair case

    Good Day, I am currently modelling a staircase supported by a moment frame and I have come across a strange occurrence. When I checked my column forces the axial forces seemed alright but the moments were strange as the moments generated along the…
