  • 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…
  • Dummy beam

    Hello Everyone. I create a dummy beam with density=0 and E=0 (Figure.1) then I assign the beam (Figure.2) then Staad Error occurs( ***ERROR*** MATERIAL NAME MUST NOT CONTAIN ANY BLANK SPACE )(Figure.3), What is the solution?

  • Results Along Line

    After analysis i need to modify the geometry of one member. If i need this modification i will lose the cut lines created with results along line tool. I'd like to find a way to not lose the cutting lines after making the modify and relaunching the analysis…
