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…

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, How to we get the local deflection for node like the one we are getting for global deflection using " objOpenSTAAD.Output.GetNodeDisplacements(Selnode, LC, DisplacementAyyay) " Thanks.

I am trying to model a Elevated steel water tank with bracing for analysis in STAAD.Pro. While modelling the structure I've encountered a problem and would like your help. The problem is: While the beam offset works perfectly for modelling a beam…

I have designed a steel structures in staad pro. I have some doubts in below 1. I'm getting an error in member designed failed, how to resolve it. 2. In output, Some of my members gets failed and some gets pass how to resolve it and how to optimize…

warehouse.zip wind calculation also in that folder.... try to fix this probem guys

I was wondering if there is any literature on the best way to approach the design of a simple four sided moment frame building using RAM Structural System? Thanks, Scott

When running the STAAD, the result shows everything is right,. Structure is stable, no warning. Displacements are limited. BUT, I get some funny numbers for rotational displacement e.g. 533 degree & sometimes more. I checked releases. I believe they…

Section 5.20.3 states that "f 1 (Depth of section at start node) should always be greater than f 3 (Depth of section at end node)." In the model I am working in, it makes more sense for me to define my members from left to right which results in some…

Let me first say I am no Staad expert...but I'm trying to learn. I have a wind frame that is concrete up to a certain height and steel up the roof. Is it possible to model this and analyze the combined frame all at once in Staad? If so could you please…
