• Staad beam bracing

    I'm trying to understand the different scenarios in Staad for beam bracing. Non-Physical Member (not sure what to call this) I understand by default the program considers the length of member (node to node) as the unbraces length. So for a girder…

  • Can a metallic sheeting replace the bracings to resist the lateral forces - seismic forces and wind forces, to add stability of the structure?

    I have a slender structure, 5 m x 2.4 m of height 18 m. I wanted to replace the lateral bracings from level 6 m and above with the metallic sheeting, 6mm or more. I have added the plates of thickness 6mm to simulate the sheeting and by adding intermediate…
