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…

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?

How to create a cantilever slab without beams in the Physical modeler in STAAD connect edition?

THIS PROPERTY ONLY.... I WANT TO USE IN MY STAAD MODEL.... HOW TO USE THIS AS A COLDFORMED STEEL (AMERICAN)

what is your opinion in layout of tendons for this post-tensioned slab???? notes : spacing = 1.5 m max span = 9 m , slab thickness= 250 mm each tendon contains 5 strands (12.7 mm) can you suggest span layout to design sections????

Hello, I´m trying to analyze a model in STAAD.Pro V8i, said model consists of a slab as foundation, a perimetral RC wall and pedestals and beams to support the upper structure. The model has about 22000 plate elements and about 40 beams. Now to the problem…

I am new to STAAD pro connect. I need some help on how to model a steel transition cap shown in the attached photo. The cap consists of two top and bottom plates separated by cylindrical section. There are 24 gussets attached to the outer perimeter of…

What is the period time range of first mode of RC high rise buildings under seismic loads?

Good Everybody, I am Modeling a Circular Digester tank of 318Million Litters per Day , I have a doubt how to model the connection between the wall and raft footing. this how I modeled the Raft is 600mm thk and the wall is 350mm thk, I have modeled…

I am modeling a digester with a opening in the wall In the model plates near the opening (plate no: 8632,3026 and other plates around opening ) have abnormal Mx moments along the local x axis of the plate and also there directions are reversed is it…

Hey I'm designing a mat foundation. I see two types of analyses zero-tension and linear. What is the basic difference between two? I read the manual but couldn't understand clearly. It would be great if anyone could explain it to me in layman language…

I can not add plate to this area. Im not under standing this. How to add plate here for design of slab?

Hello all I have created an entire model for one of my courses. But I created an analytical model instead of a physical model. I see an option of creating an analytical model from a physical model but I need to do the vice-versa. Please let me know…

I have tried to make a unique section using the section wizard. I have no problem creating the shape, exporting to STAAD, adding it to a new user table and then assigning. However when I try to run a simple analysis just to see if it will correctly associate…
