Hello Team, I am working on a design where the platform is connected to vertical pressure vessel, and framing members are cantilevers. Assigning CAN 1 and DFF 300 parameters to the whole structure -- I want to understand how these parameters are used…

I am working on a platform structure, Which is located on the vessel the height from base is approximately 2.5m I have assigned the seismic forces using the seismic definition option from staad but the forces are not getting assigned correctly, If I visualize…

I have recently Installed Staad Pro and I am not able to view the report Tab see below snip, How I can turn it on? I am using STAAD.Pro 2023 - Version 23.00.01.25

Dear Team, I am trying to import the line diagram from the DXF file which was created in Caddmate, I save the line diagram in the dxf 2000 version but this is not importing and giving me a fatal error during import. I tried saving the dxf file in multiple…

Is there a way to design only a few members in RAM Elements? In my case, I imported floor framing from RAM Structure System into Elements in order to determine chord and collector forces. Consequently, I still have all the gravity members in the model…

Hello, I have assigned the parameter for LY LZ to the beams see below Image, this beam has node to node distance of 100mm as this is a stiffening beam for plate elements. Now I want to verify the bending behavior is happening correctly on the basis of…

In one of the reports of Staad Pro. Calculation, I found the image that provided the details in the form of color legend of all the members based on Member Sizes, see the below image, How this output is produced? Please guide, Thanks

I am working on a rectangular steel tank, and One of the faces got orientated incorrectly, I selected that face and changed the orientation using the reference point option, 90 % plates got oriented and some of them did not get oriented. when I am trying…

Hi, Can u explain anyone What is the meaning of REFORM 1 KGEOM 1 in non linear cable analysis what if i keep 0 instead of 1 " REFORM 1 KGEOM 0" Thanks in advance

I'm unable to design any directly welded connections in RAM Connection ( Version - 13.09.00.163 ) , Is there any provision for beam column flange/web directly welded ??

1.0 In staad why I am getting more reinforcement in top column (See bemm no. 76 & 77) see the attached model. 2.0 What parameter need to use so that reduction factor is not considered in design calculation because as per is 1893-2016 it is only use…

Why is it that in RAM Connection, Base Plate module, fixed biaxial, that tensile loads in anchor bolts aren't distributed based on their location to the load application point? For example, if I have a column with a 2x2 anchor bolt layout, with one of…

In RAM Connections, can anchor bolts be checked for combined shear and tension per AISC DG 1 which considers bending in the bolts due to shear when oversized holes and welded washers are used? I see that the software currently calculates these per ACI…

Hi, Based on NBCC 2015 4.1.8.11 4) single storey buildings with steel or wood deck as diaphragms can have a higher fundamental period compared to 4.1.8.11 3) as seen in the snap below. However, in the current RAM frame the Ta is only based on clause…

IS 456 : 2000 stipulates load combinations for design of collapse and serviceability, but not exactly for foundation design. Is it appropriate to use serviceability load combinations for foundation stability check and collapse load cases for reinforcement…

In STAAD Pro SS6 edition (Version 20.07.11.70) when a member subjected to Combined Axial force and bending, the member fails with higher ratios (i.e., 200, 216584 etc. ) according to section 9.3.1.1 as per IS 800 - 2007 (LSD). But when I calculate manually…

Hi Team, I want to design a Deck concrete slab with Steel frame (Composite building) for one of the Indian industrial project in Staad Pro connect edition using Indian code or American code. Please help me out on how to do and share if there are any…

Hi everyone , Could anyone please describe me that what is the meaning of the triangle shaped red line in model and what is the purpose of this function?

Hello, I came across with an issue, could you please help me. I need to use plate member for stair stringer, Staad is showing errors for the analysis of the member. WARNING: DESIGN OF SECTION FOR MEMBER # Please help me how to rectify the…

Currently Working on Pipe rack Design for the New Zealand site. And I want to do Seismic analysis for the pipe rack. I have seen the seismic code list which is available in software. New Zealand Seismic code is not available in code list then how we can…

I have some combined foundations for braced frames that have significant overturning moments (outside the kern). Based on hand calculations, I have found a footing size that works for stability (overturning at the toe) but I continue to have tension in…

Dear Team I am working with the Staad model for buckling analysis . The buckling load factor is given by the staad after the analysis , wanted to understand the how to manually check the Buckling load factor using Critical Euler equation . I have manually…

Hi. I recently got access to the student license of STAAD Pro. It was working well until last few days. The application is not starting. Below given screen appears and then there is no further movement in the loading. I tried re-installing the application…

I have mention envelope (serviceability) as load list in parameter design, but the result in UC Tables only show 1 Load Combination. Anyone have problem like me?
