• Definition of Deflection Loads

    Can someone please define/review my understanding of the following Deflection loads shown in the beam results report? Initial Load = dead and live construction loads + deck and beam self weights Live Load = live load Post Comp Load = super imposed…

  • RE: skip live loading

    We do skip or pattern loading for beam with cantilevers, and we do skip loading for concrete beams in the concrete analysis, but for multiple-span lateral beams in the Ram Frame analysis we only analyze a single concurrent downward live load case. Using…

  • Create Wind Definition & Assign Wind Load for Bridge (AASHTO 2012)

    Following is for student project in Bridge Engineering class: We have modeled a two-span continuous bridge in STAAD. We intend to assign Wind loads, based on AASHTO 2012 values. How can a wind definition be created to assign a wind load? Our wind…
