RAM Connection Anchor Bolt Checks
In RAM Connections, can anchor bolts be checked for combined shear and tension per AISC DG 1 which considers bending in the bolts due to shear when oversized holes and welded washers are used? I see that the software currently calculates these per ACI…
Steel member design - Staad Pro SS6 edition
In STAAD Pro SS6 edition (Version 20.07.11.70) when a member subjected to Combined Axial force and bending, the member fails with higher ratios (i.e., 200, 216584 etc. ) according to section 9.3.1.1 as per IS 800 - 2007 (LSD). But when I calculate manually…
how to get node local deflection through open staad API
Hi,
How to we get the local deflection for node like the one we are getting for global deflection using " objOpenSTAAD.Output.GetNodeDisplacements(Selnode, LC, DisplacementAyyay) "
Thanks.
Problem modelling plates on top of beams for elevated steel water tank
I am trying to model a Elevated steel water tank with bracing for analysis in STAAD.Pro. While modelling the structure I've encountered a problem and would like your help.
The problem is:
While the beam offset works perfectly for modelling a beam…
Member Design Failed for member in steel structure and also Members get failed in output file
I have designed a steel structures in staad pro. I have some doubts in below
1. I'm getting an error in member designed failed, how to resolve it.
2. In output, Some of my members gets failed and some gets pass how to resolve it and how to optimize…

Best Approach to Model and Design a Simple Four Sided Moment Frame Building in RAM SS
I was wondering if there is any literature on the best way to approach the design of a simple four sided moment frame building using RAM Structural System?
Thanks,

large rotational displacement
When running the STAAD, the result shows everything is right,. Structure is stable, no warning. Displacements are limited. BUT, I get some funny numbers for rotational displacement e.g. 533 degree & sometimes more.
I checked releases. I believe they…
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…
Combined Steel and Concrete Moment Frame in STAAD.Pro V8i
Let me first say I am no Staad expert...but I'm trying to learn.
I have a wind frame that is concrete up to a certain height and steel up the roof. Is it possible to model this and analyze the combined frame all at once in Staad? If so could you please…
