  • Steel member design - Staad Pro SS6 edition

    In STAAD Pro SS6 edition (Version 20.07.11.70) when a member subjected to Combined Axial force and bending, the member fails with higher ratios (i.e., 200, 216584 etc. ) according to section 9.3.1.1 as per IS 800 - 2007 (LSD). But when I calculate manually…

  • Large rotational displacement in Node.

    PR-1_24072022.STD I applied Moment along Mx direction. due to that i found rotational displacement with large amount. Also note i have specie as Truss. Attached model for reference. if any mistake by me please suggest.

  • Difference in Compressive & Tensile stress values for a symmetrical I beam which is connected to a vertically restrained plated structure and subjected to UDL

    Hi, I was doing a case study for the combined beam & plate effect in STAAD Pro using AISC ASD. 2 geometries were prepared; 1. A simply supported beam subjected to 1kN/m UDL 2.A simply supported beam with plate structure bottom vertically restrained…

  • Regarding Lx parameter value.

    How to give the design parameter of Lx(lateral torsional buckling) For column member. In my case, The column height is 12m, Minor axis direction tied at each 3m. But major axis direction not tied. What is the Lx parameter value?

  • RAM Elements existing PEMB analysis always fails

    We often need to analyze existing PEMB structures and when only existing loads are applied the structure still fails. We have used the MBMA special considerations option in our design and that does not seem to help. What are we missing? Is there another…

  • Steel design output are not shown for some properties

    8037.Shelter 1.std Hi, In my model some properties Steel design output are not shown in Results. I have attached model for your reference. I'm using latest STAAD connect edition.

  • Steel Beams with low compressive force failing in slenderness

    In a steel frame structure I am modeling, For one row of beams allowable slenderness is 400 (fx = -0.005 kN) For similar second row of beams allowable slenderness is 180 (fx = 0.005 kN) and it is failing. This minuscule compressive load is making…

  • Uplift point loads in my model are not being considered by the ram beam design module

    I have a building with screen wall loads on the roof. These loads act as a couple with the main post and the kicker having reactions in opposite directions. When I add these loads to the ram model, ram beam module is only considering the downward gravity…

  • Does anyone know how can we model HSS with uneven width in RAM Elements?

    I'm trying to model HSS with different widths at its end. But I do not have any idea how to model it in RAM Elements. If anyone has a solution for this, please let me know. Thank you in advance. A section like this.

  • Having Doubt in STAAD Seismic Analysis for New Zealand Project

    Currently Working on Pipe rack Design for the New Zealand site. And I want to do Seismic analysis for the pipe rack. I have seen the seismic code list which is available in software. New Zealand Seismic code is not available in code list then how we can…

  • Steel Design Parameters in Modeller

    I assume this has been mentioned before (might even be working on it), but being able to specify the steel design parameters in the Modeler would be a game changer. A separate design module would be good too, but I don't think it's necessary.

  • AS4100 in STAAD pro connect edition

    The AS4100 version in the Staad Pro Connection Edition is 1998, is that correct? is there any way to update it to 2018 version?

  • What is the difference between mild steel and TOR steel?

    Mild steel or threaded steel bar is steel that contains only a small amount of carbon and is strong and easily worked but not readily tempered or hardened whereas TOR steel only refers to cold treated bars.

  • Staad - Steel Design - Physical Members

    What is the latest on designing steel members in staad pro using AISC and physical members? It seems like you can design steel based on physical member properties for some codes, but not AISC, is that correct? Is this video current with the work flow…

  • Wrong Shear Capacity Calculation for Welded Built up Section as per IS 800-2007

    1104.Model.std STAAD.Pro CONNECT Edition - Version 22.07.00.160 If we assign a rolled section from the table and assign STP parameter as 2, then shear capacity is calculated correctly by taking the depth of web x thickness of web (dtw). But when…

  • Illegal Framing Configuration - Beam 42

    I am getting an illegal framing configuration on Beam 42 on the lower level of my model. The data check rings up no warnings for the framing condition. However, when i run the beam design i get the error message for Beam 42 located on the diagonal A9…

  • Steel Design Error in RAM Elements

    I have a project evaluating existing members that are, essentially, beams with overhangs. Both of them are built up sections. They are: Shape 1 Bottom plate = 1 5/8" x 34", Top plate = 2 1/8" x 26" (2) web members 1 1/2" thick x 32" tall. They are spaced…

  • Steel Design Parameters Get Lost When Physical Model Changes

    I lost my steel design parameters somewhere along the way in one of my models. I think it happened when I was intersecting, deleting, and extending members.

  • Member capacity as per AISC 360-16

    Dear All, Please note the member capacity shown in the property dialog box is not as per the least capacity value calculated as per AISC 360-16. the design strength value showing in the beam property dialog box is not as per least design strength value…
