How to model Vibration of Machine
Dear All,
I want to ask about the vibration of machine.
As far as I know, we need to input as sine function. Am I right?
I assumed the weight of machine is 110 kN and assumed that 10% of weight will be placed as the vibration.
I use…
International Design Codes in STAAD.Pro v8i
Hello,
I am wondering how to use the international design codes in STAAD.Pro v8i. On the start-up screen, American codes are selected with a green dot. I need to use Asian codes. When I select Asian codes, a red dot appears next to it. Is there…
Re: No results in the Beam Graphs
Answer:
The graph does not show any results as Mz, Fy and Fx forces are all 0 in all members on your structure (see the Beam End Forces table in the Forces vertical page). Only My and Fz forces are being developed in the structure, so My and Fz graphs…
STAAD Error No. 41: Not enough memory
Hi,
STAAD v8i doesn't run analysis without MEMORY-command in input file. Output file then only contents of two lines:
1. STAAD SPACE
ERROR NOT ENOUGH MEMORY TO START ANALYSIS. ( 41 )
But available memory should be enough. We tested…
section wizard
Hello,
If i am assigning the property of section wizard say four angles connected, behaving as square in plan then is it possible to design that particular element as per the given design codes?
Staad pro member specification
hello
i m working on staad pro 06, during modeling structure, sometimes we hav to specify that structure or member as truss member. IN specification, there is another option RELEASE as start or at end. Actually i could not understand significance of…
how to apply pretension to a 32mm rod
i need to apply 3kN PRETENSION to a rod.
I already attempted:
" MEMBER PRESTRESS
2 TO 7 FORCE 3 "
where to 2 to 7 are my rod members.
the error i get is "THE ABOVE LINE HAS ERRONEOUS DATA"
Is there a specific format to input…
COMPOSITE DESIGN
HELLO,
Is it possible to design the composite beam and composite column in staad ? if not then how do i design it in staad. with the help of macros or what?
Re: section database property developed in STAADPRO is not recognized in STAAD Offshore
Hai Sye
Thanks for your kind support. my earlier problem is solved now i came up with new problem. could u please help us. we assigned few members in our model STANDARD Circular hollow sections (CHS) european Its shows section Invalid. for ex. we assigned…
Steel Deck with stiffeners
I have a query regarding how to model a steel deck plate (6mm thick) supported on 100x65x7thk angles which are fully welded to the underside. The floor is made up of 533 deep UB sections spaced at 4m centres. The angle stiffeners span 4m between the beams…
SmartPlant 3D- STAAD.Pro interface through CIS/2 translator
Hi!
I am trying to import SmartPlant 3D Structural model to STAAD.Pro through CIS/2 translator. I am able to import steel sections of Indian Section library. But I am unable to import Rectangular Section (Prismatic member not available in STAAD Section…
Pier or Wharf Push-over with multi-linear spring supports
Can Staad Pro v8i do a push-over analysis of a frame that includes multi-linear spring supports?
The structure in question is a pier or wharf that is supported on vertical piles. The lateral load is entirely resisted by the piles. During push-over…
Tapered Members
Section 5.20.3 states that "f 1 (Depth of section at start node) should always be greater than f 3 (Depth of section at end node)." In the model I am working in, it makes more sense for me to define my members from left to right which results in some…
Re: SELECT ALL for AISC 14th Ed.
The introduction of the new version of the AISC 360 code represents an important step in the development of STAAD design codes. One of the main requests we have had over the years is to provide more detail of the design rather than the brief summary of…
CLAUSE IN STAAD PRO
I have a number of beam in my model and when i run a unity check some fail by different "clauses" Below are all the list clauses that i am coming up with.
clause h1/2
clause h3
clause g
clause e2
Does anyone know where i can find a definition…
NonLinear static analysis
Dear Friends!!!!
Could anyone help me in answering the following question
1. Does Pushover analysis applies to composite structures?
I have a situation where i need to model steel tubular piles with concrete deck.

Global moments versus local axis moments
for the design of concrete slabs or walls rectangular elements can be used. In the output global moments as well as local axis moments are available. To design the reinforcement local moments MX and MY must be combined with MXY. It must be noted that…
Base Pressure Calculation
Is there any technical reference how the base pressure in staadpro or staad foundation is calculated? This is in relation to my observation that the base pressure seems to be a function of the thickness of the mat (plate). The thicker the plate you assign…
Geometry import issue from ProStructures to STAAD.Pro using ISM
Issue:
The geometry of some members is not getting imported properly from ProStructures into STAAD.Pro using ISM. Here is the screenshot of the structure which should be imported:
This is how it is imported into STAAD.Pro:

plate elements in staad & release specification
yes i know the said thing but in actual practice we have different
conditions for plate such as simply supported, fixed etc. then in space

Re: Lateral Earth Pressure using Hydrostatic Pressure
Mr SKLose / Mr Seth Guthrie,
I am using STAAD.Pro, 27.06.23
I have had problems using hydrostatic pressures on inclined wing walls.
I think hydrostatic pressures can only be applied as long as you have a rectangle or square plate elements.
