I am not following the procedure outlined for checking overturning Moment on Mat.
Enclosed is staad file SC2 FOUNDATION.std
Here is additional SSC2 FOUNDATION.zipFA file
The trouble with the SFA file was that you have specified the Serviceability factor and Design Factor as 0 for all the primary load cases 1 to 6. Both factors should be set to 1 for these loads to be considered in the analysis as shown next.
Also you need to include the self weight of the mat in the combinations in SFA. The following wiki will explain why and how
communities.bentley.com/.../33651.selfweight-is-not-included-in-combinations-for-mat-foundation-job-even-when-the-primary-load-case-with-self-weight-is-added-as-part-of-it
Ok so I changed the loads as suggested - now it keeps crashing. I also changed some loading magnitudes by less than 10%.
I run the analysis and get 32 warnings and it waits a couple of minutes and crashes. It crashes on Laptop and Desktop Equally as badly.7127.SC2 FOUNDATION.zip
Any help would be appreciated since I need this completed today. Is it the connected Project doing this?
