  • Equivalent properties in Beam & Plate max. Axial force in Plaxis 3D

    Hi all, 01. What is the purpose of converting input parameters to equivalent properties in Plaxis 3D and how it goings to influence in the result? 02. Please explain about the axial force calculation based on the following page in reference manual…
  • Plaxis 3d - steel cap

    Hi ! I would like to ask, if I model a temporary deep excavation using plate elements with one row of temporary steel strut's with cap, should I increase the moment of inertia of the cap according to parallel axis theorem (Steiner)? Standard…
  • FEA Analysis - STAAD.Pro Error: Joint No 0 does not exist

    Hi All, I was hoping someone can help me. I am trying to perform a Finite Element Analysis of a Plate with a load on 100KN but the subject error stops the analysis. I have searched but coudn't find the solution. Can anybody guide me please how to…
  • Design of Solid slab (Conventional slabs)

    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…
  • Modeling beam and slab connectivity in STAAD Pro

    I am modeling a very wide slab (120' x 30') simply supported on two long opposite edges. It would have been a simple one way slab but it has two edge beams on the shorter (30') edges. The slab is 20" deep and the edge beams are 29" deep x 18" wide. I…
  • Fabric sheeting on top of a structure

    Hi, I'm modeling a structure that consists of a series of concrete columns spreaded on the perimeter of a rectangular shape building, and attached to a channel concrete caps that running on top of perimeter columns, then the channel beam is connected…
