Is there any way (such as programing cut lines into the input file/saving your cut lines) to not lose cut lines after making modifications to the model and re running the analysis? I found a post about this two years ago and I'm not sure if any enhancements…

Hello Everyone For a while, I was using an Advanced Concrete Design (RCDC) for the design of a solid slab. Today I tried to learn the RAM concept for the slab designs but I saw a design of strips that had never seen before (When I was using RCDC and…

Hello Everyone. I create a dummy beam with density=0 and E=0 (Figure.1) then I assign the beam (Figure.2) then Staad Error occurs( ***ERROR*** MATERIAL NAME MUST NOT CONTAIN ANY BLANK SPACE )(Figure.3), What is the solution?

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…

When checking a Mat Foundation Job, after: analysis; Moment Envelope Generation and Design Parameters; one can use the Moment Capacity Check . One can enter the reinforcing and materials parameters and then check capacity vs. the moment diagram. I've…

Question: How to get a shear force per unit length for plate element in STAAD.Pro? Answer : Shear Stresses of the plate are reported in [Force/ unit length/ thickness] units in STAAD.Pro. In order to get shear force per unit length, one has to multiply…

I have modelled a rectangular concrete tank in STAAD using plate elements and need to do some additional calculations to check the crack widths do not exceed a given value. I can get a contour plot of the bending moments in the walls but when the tank…
