I am trying to model a Elevated steel water tank with bracing for analysis in STAAD.Pro. While modelling the structure I've encountered a problem and would like your help.
The problem is:
While the beam offset works perfectly for modelling a beam…
In an effort to find a more efficient way in aggregating the output, I decided to give the RC interactive designer a try and compare it with the batch mode design results. Attached is a screenshot of the result from the batch mode vs the RC designer and…
If the user didn’t assign effective length factor SKY and SKZ parameters in ACI concrete column design, which value does STAAD consider in the column design:
1-The length of the modelled member from node to node or
2-the clear height of the column…
Hi,
1. Does STAAD take into account the ductile detailing provisions of CHAPTER 21 of ACI 318M-11, while arriving at the reinforcement area and stirrup area ??
3. If those provisions are available, how does STAAD identify a SMRF or IMRF or OMRF in…

The diagram says "minor" and "major" axis moment, however…
See Section 4.8.4 in the RAM Concrete Column Manual for the sections of 21.13 that are implemented in the program. Induced moments and shears are not calculated by the program, so the program follows ACI 318-11 21.13.4 and not 21.13.2 or 21.13.3 when…
