• Plate loads and floor loads

    what is the difference between plate loads and floor loads on slab designing in staadpro. why peoples used plate loads on slabs?

  • STAAD Foundation Adv - Mat foundation loads not shown in output

    Hi, I have a simple mat foundation model to which I have applied several loadcases with column reaction forces defined. These appear to be correctly defined as I can see them in the geometry window and they are listed in the load description correctly…

  • Load Resistance of Shear Wall Cores in RAM SS

    I am analyzing a 350ft+ multistory building which contains a square shear wall core. RAM Frame analysis is giving me excessive deflections (more than what I expect given the core dimensions w.r.t. floor dimensions). I wanted to know if RAM Frame would…

  • Does RAM concept factor the transfer loads for "rule set design->strength design"? and where can I view what factors it uses for this? Thanks

  • Are Superimposed Dead Loads added to the Mass?

    Are superimposed dead loads applied in the forms of line, area, and point loads added to the mass in RAM Frame automatically or does the user need to add the dead load into the "Dead Load" AND "Mass Dead Load" dialog? The following links only describe…

  • Connection design from Staad loads

    Hello, Is there any facility in Staad to know all the algebraic sum of loads at a node for manua l designing of that connection?

  • RE: Loads

    Check this issue first: Missing or incorrect loads on perimeter beams Happens to members in the outer bay when the slab edge slightly diverges from the perimeter framing.

  • RE: Gravity Load computation error. Check gravity loads on slab decks

    Karl found that the surface load polygon selected below on L1 is causing the problem. I think there is a snap issue with the slab edge or a deck nearby. If I delete it, then the model runs in RAM Concrete.

  • RE: RAM SS 1-way vs 2-way concrete slabs

    The reason we caution against hybrid decks is that once any portion of the diaphragm is 2-way, the whole thing has to get meshed. If you are using a semi-rigid diaphragm anyway, that not an issue since it being meshed already. RAMSS Two Way Decks The…

  • error finish command in load data

    I am getting this error again and again , inspite of having done perform analysis. can someone please help me what can be possible reason for this error.

  • How to Assign wind load for Glass Glazing structures

    I have designed the 2d model with External Elevation and i used tublar steel section (in site im using MS Tube to hold the glass ) for Mullions and Transoms instead of columns and Beams.Then i give self wt as 1,Dead load(Glass Load) =Height of glass*…

  • RE: Multiple Live Loads

    In Ram Modeler the live loads are either part of the main live load case (reducible, unreducible and storage type loads) or part of the roof live case (roof or snow) only. You can't force the program into having more distinct live load cases. Wind loads…

  • RE: Lateral Frame Design on a Building on a Radius

    Program generated wind and seismic loads are generated based on the global X and Y axes. While some angled loads are also applied to take care of things like seismic orthogonal effects or wind eccentricity, there is not a simple override to change the…

  • RE: Import User Defined Story Forces into RAM Frame?

    Once you start a new user defined story force the tale of values (force, angle location) is a table that can be copied or pasted over, so if you have that data in a spreadsheet you can quickly paste the data into Ram Frame quickly. You just can't use…
