Hi there, I'm modelling a steel frame in STAAD and looking to include c channel girts in the model. The girts (red lines) are to be located on the front face of the column with wall panels (green line) attached as shown below. I plan on using meshed…

Hi, I am modelling a steel frame and I have a sloped low roof made of steel deck and beams. I want to apply loading on the deck to be distributed to the supporting beams and also account for the lateral stiffness due to the deck. How can I do this?…

4645.File.STD Hi, I am designing a steel truss over steel columns. But members are failing with absurd utilization ratio. Those are failing in cl. 9.3.1.1 of IS 800 : 2007 LSD. Please help in this regard.

Hi everyone, As you know steel connection design in STAAD pro Advanced CONNECT doesn't accept built-up sections for some types of connections (for instance, Cap plate). In order to go around that, I have tried to modify the hot-rolled section database…

Dear friends, STAAD Pro reads only the moment at the element start point to design tapered steel section elements. Is there any way to fix it? Thanks

Hi all, I am wondering which one to use between plate center stresses and corner stresses in plate post-processing results and when we should use them. I am modeling a dome shape, cylindrical wall and base slab. Corner stresses seems to be higher than…

Hi all, is there a way to apply concentrated member loads as shown in the image below using STAAD? This is a plan view of a cylinder, the blue marks show each beam division and each beam is 1m deep by 0.5m wide. Please advise. Thanks.

Hi everyone, I'm using footing support (Y direction and compression only). I have notice that it only work with some load cases (gravity) by not lateral load cases. Could you please take a look at the model and tell me what is the problem. thanks: …

I know WT are from W-shape beams, but is there a way to change how they labelled in Staad Pro? Example WT4x9 shows as W8x18 when reviewing model. Unless you double click to check member before it shows W8x18Tee. Also when you create the member for the…

Hi there, I am modeling a circular tank with sloped base slab in STAAD (note the base slab has an opening in the middle and the slope is towards the opening). The internal diameter of the tank is 60m and the height is 6.2m. To create the geometry…

Hi everyone, It is very weird that I am getting different utilization factors every time I run the analysis (The software picks different forces values at the tapered element) and for some reason, all sections have the same utilization value. Could…

Hello, Here I m going to the attached model of my building and my problem is that when I ran this model in series 6 and staadpro ce update 7 after the analysis I'm getting the different results of R/F. you can check out the result for beam no. 149…

Dear sir, kindly find the staad file and please correct it including notional loads as an example so everyone can take advantage from this staad file . kindly add notional loads and generate combination. use direct analysis method with p delta…

Can I use the change command to change the design parameters? It takes the last assigned parameters all the time.

Hi, Is there a way to show all design parameters assigned to a specific beam. Example: Beam No = 12 LY=5ft LZ=5ft DFF=360 DJ1=120 DJ2=124 UNT=12ft rather than having to scroll through tens of different parameter to compile the design parameters…

I have a Staad Pro model that I am using AISC 360-16 to design. I have my DFF and DJ1 and DJ2 parameters applied by there's no deflection showing in the analysis output report. I read from https://communities.bentley.com/products/ram-staad/w/structural_analysis_and_design__wiki…

CAN YOU PLEASE EXPLAIN WHAT IS SEISMIC -H AND SEISMIC -V??? IF I M RIGHT H FOR HORIZONTAL AND V FOR VERTICAL. NOW MY 2ND QUESTION IS WHEN WE NEED TO CONSIDER SEISMIC- H AND WHEN WE NEED TO CONSIDER SEISMIC -V CASES????

WHAT HAPPENED WITH ANALYSIS DON'T KNOW??? OHT 1000 KL INTZR1.STD

Analysis aborted also attached screenshot and my model already try memory command but the problem is not resolved.
