Hi, I am modelling a beam with a change of deck along the length of the beam (half of the beam has a W2+3.5" verco deck, and the other half has a W2+2" deck). I read this response: Effects of Changing Deck Type - RAM | STAAD | ADINA Wiki - RAM | STAAD…

Hello, I am seeing a precompression failure for my two-way slab with opening infill beams (Layers > Deign Status > Status Plan). When I go to use the Auditor tool, I do not see much information about the precompression failure (i.e., the needed precompression…

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?

Hello Everyone How can I reduce the development length bars in the beam (Figure 1-1), I'm running to get a result like this beam (figure 2-1) Figure 1-1 Figure 2-1

I have got my report, but there is no loading details like dead load, Wind loads and all... In report settings i have added Loadings, but its not showing.... Wt to do???? i want to see other load details. How to get that details?

Dear bentley, The below values related to temperature load from my project specification, i cant understand this. anyone please explain me about this and what value to be given in staad pro... please help me as soon as possible. *******START*****…

i would like to ask about tapered section how does staad calculate moment of inertia does he devided the section , if yes how can i control the number of devision

Hi, I am currently working on a project where I wish to use STAAD Pro v8i SS4 to perform a modal analysis to determine the natural frequency of a turbine exhaust extension. This is essentially a vertically orientated, stainless steel tube with intermediate…

Hello to all, In reality horizontal braces (or vertical brace, beam, etc) that is design for tension only resist "some" axial compression capacity. Is there a way that this axial compression capacity can be input in STAAD? For example, a horizontal…

Good morning, I am facing a problem in the attribution of BEta angle. This property disappears when i am restarting the program and reopening the STD file. Is there any solution for keeping it ? Image 1: BETA=0degmage 2: Beta=90deg …

Gents, today i'm working on pipe/tubular section in my model. to check the ratio in analysis, i'm using API code, but for non tubular section, i use AISC 9th Ed. however, i have some question regarding API code. (i use STAAD Pro v8i SELECT 4 20…
