Max Short Term Load Deflection
Hi there!
I am working on a 2 way podium slab and do not quite understand why I am finding a difference in the Max Short Term Deflection and the Service LC for max deflection.
In my model after running it I check the Service LC: D+L Max Deflection…
How does RAM compute the transformed MOI for AISC's effective MOI?
Hello,
I am wondering how RAM Steel computes the I_{tr} for composite beams. For example, I have a composite beam with the following properties as computed by RAM:
But by hand, I am computing I_{tr} = 941.86, slightly less than RAM. I am guessing…
RE: What deflection is staad using in the deflection code check?
The resultant nodal deflection that you are looking at, represents the deflection of the node from the initial position. However when the beam deflection is calculated for deflection check, STAAD.Pro follows the process listed next
It first finds out…
