  • Applying wind loads to large steel framed structure

    Hi, I am trying to use the automatic wind load generation tools in staad pro to distribute the wind loads to a large portal frame. I have tried a number of ways to distribute the loads. The only way I can get the one-way distribution that i would…
  • Is it possible to apply the wind load perpendicular to a wall that does not align with a global axis?

    I have a model of a portal frame that is linked a to a revit model using structural synchronizer. The structure is a substructure, this section of the building is at 10deg to the main structure. Therefore my model does not align with the global axis.…

  • RE: Metric System in Wind load definition

    Dave: Although the inputs can be specified in Metric units however the program internally converts these to English units and uses the equations corresponding to English formula. After the calculations are done, the pressure vs height data is reported…
  • RE: Wind Load when Fireproofing is added in specification

    The weight due to the fireproofing material is included as part of the selfweight but wind load generation does not account for the fireproofing. You may have to magnify the generated wind load by a certain factor to approximately account for such effects…
  • RE: URGENT!!!!! ABOUT WIND EXPOSURE

    Hi Jonathan, Please go through the following thread to see if this helps: Though I tested your model as well and found that the issue is only related to the display of load values in GUI. The analysis engine is considering the exposure factors correctly…
  • RE: Wind load generation on lattice towers

    Seems like you are using the Open Structure option when using the wind load generation in STAAD.Pro. Now if you are directly defining the intensity in STAAD.Pro and it is the same as in your hand calculations, then the only variable left is the projected…
  • Wind load generation on lattice towers

    I have modeled an electric substation box-type structure which consists of lattice columns connected by struts made with standard shapes. The lattice column longerons are L3X3 angles, laced together with L1-3/4X1-1/4X1/8 members. I have calculated the…
  • Wind load Not applied properly

    Dear Engineers, (a) I have problem in applying wind load to my model.Its not applying properly.I have attached model for reference.../ (b) Also i have another doubt that i have given the bottom slab as 250mm and 500mm thick. The 500mm thick slab…
