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…

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?

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

Hello Sir RCDC is designed and Detailed all the slab one by one but I want to detail all Top and Bottom Reinforcement of the two-way slab once, what should I do.

Hello, I received this message when I went to import my RAM Frame analysis to RAM Connection. I noticed that my load combinations did not appear in RAM Connection, and I was puzzled why. I found that I could generate my loads, but my base plate design…

Hello, I´m designing two small guardhouses in STAAD.Pro V8i SS5, both are RC structures with slab foundations, they are almost equal in principal geometry, loading and sections, the only thing that changes considerably from one model to the other is the…

warehouse.zip wind calculation also in that folder.... try to fix this probem guys

I am analysing an RCC box girder for which some peculiar tapered sections have to be created. I created a tapered rectangular section in AutoCAD 2014. I used polyline to create the 2D and then extruded it to make it a solid 3D section. Now when I import…

Is there any option to get report for the tension & compression flange stress ratio of built-up I-section for the critical load cases.

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?

Actually i need all members UC Ratio values. How to get all values???? Please guys guide me New folder (2).rar

i created a model in different BIM software like Revit,robot structure analysis , Bentley staadpro, aecosim etc..the model is verified and analysed but the ifc file exported from these software doesnt contain analysis data, loading,bending,moments data…

Hi, I'm having some issues with analysis result and design parameters in RAM elements. 1) In my model, I've applied load on a strong axis but the analysis result is showing a moment in both major and minor axis. I was expecting only moment in the…

I was running a design for a WT vertical brace and found what I believe to be a mistake in the calculation of the shear lag factor, U, for tensile rupture. I have (7) rows of bolts connecting the WT flange to the gusset. From AISC Table D3.1 I would expect…

Hi, I'm using Staad.Pro V8i (SELECTseries 4) and I would like to get the data of the "Steel Design Detail" output Report in kN METER units (not KIP FEET). It maybe in any track type. I'd appreciate your help with that. It's just something I have tried…

From the attached photo, please suggest the best model to be used using STAAD and identify the pros and con for each model (if there is one). Best regards, Ryan

Hi! I'm relatively new to STAAD. I have designed a structure to withstand a design wind speed of 200 kph at 0, 45 and 90 degree angle. STAAD successfully designed the program giving me a new set of member sections. I checked the post processing tab and…
