  • cable analysis

    Dear sir, I am doing the analysis of cable but the reactions are coming with an extreme value like 66kn along x. There is no any weight on the cable only self-weight is considered. Kindly explain to me why reactions are so conservative. Also, guide…
  • MOMENT DISTRIBUTION IN STAAD Pro FOR PARTIALLY RELEASED BEAMS

    How does Moment distribution and release for beams work in STAAD Pro ? While designing Secondary Beams, I’m generally releasing the moments MX, MY, MZ to a 100% at their ends. If I keep the ends fixed, I get a hogging moment say ‘ X ’ kN-m at the…
