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…

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.

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…

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

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.

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…

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…

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…

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…

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…

Dear, I'm Requesting you to give some technical Clarification of the Bracing system is to be follow the Same Plane (Sidewall or Endwall), whether X-Bracing and Portal Bracing Allow to use the same Plane or not or need to do some Excises to keep the…

Dear sir, Base shear gets by staad model is coming 269KN which is not matching with etab model (base shear 500kn) prepared by consultant.Also lateral displacement on siesmic cases is more in etab model than staad model.Can you explain why staad model…

Hello sir/mam, I am post graduate student in structural engineering. I am doing my mini project . And analysing a cable stayed bridge. But having some difficulties and constant errors. please help me resolve this issue. Errors are 1. WARNING…

I am trying to double check some numbers I ran by hand for effective section modulus (Se). The scenario I find myself in can be seen in this column model. According to AISC 360-16, Specification F7, Equation F7-3 Se is adjusted according to a change…

Hi, My company is working on a steel structure analysis model that is giving us very unusual results when we change some WWF550x420 members to standard rolled shapes. For example, if we change the WWF550's to W610x262's the model's utilization ratios…

PEB.RESPONSE SPECTRUM ANALYSIS.std

We have been working on a model and needed to create a number of custom sections to do so. I created all of the custom sections on my machine and when I went to send them to my coworker, I couldn't find them. I believed the custom sections would…

I am attempting to assign and design gusset plate connections using Ram connection using data from a RSS model. When trying to assign a connection detail to a joint the error The joint composed by node "171" and members "120, 886" is not valid "Column…

As a result of AISI coldform steel design code. The length of this element is 3 Meters. All units are in CM and KG. The Location show in table is 381. I confuse what is it mean? How to calculate this value?

PDF Dear communities, Please provide me the solution or method to design & analysis the STEPPED column. For the reference, I have attached the pdf file, please check it & provide me the solution. Thank you.

Good day, everyone! My query is about using the Modal Frequency Calculation... I've been checking the modal frequency of the structure as a whole but the client asked how we deal with the concentrated loads in the middle of the beams. I said that…

Good morning, I have problem with my steel truss bridge design, i've used member specification release MY;MZ and truss. Then this message came after i am running the analysis. ***WARNING - INSTABILITY AT JOINT 490 DIRECTION = MZ PROBABLE CAUSE…

Hi everyone, I am carrying out the dynamic analysis of a simple structure. The combination method of the response spectrum is defined as CQC (see first picture attached). However, the report file shows the different base shear values for different combinations…

Dear sir, which codes are available in staad pro to design the stainless steel. can we design the stainless steel structure by using aisc lrfd or bs5950? thank you in advance.

MEM length - 6 m Stiff plate in yellow color at 1.5m interval So shld i give Lz -1.5m or Ly-1.5 Kindly explain me briefly Thank you
