Hello All, Did anyone ever get this warning in RAM Concept? This happens when I move design strips or modeled elements. See the snip for reference.

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?

I have done a FE of a lamp post to assess the secondary stresses at the connection between two of its tubes where there are high local stresses (due compatibility of deformation at the intersection between plates meeting at different angles). when I…

unable to read analysis data from .mbd file in RCDC 9.0 from etabs 18.1.1 and etabs 16.2.1 also can not import edb file see the screenshots

Receiving the following error when attempting to design project for concrete: Can anyone help? One Bigelow After Rebuild.std

THIS PROPERTY ONLY.... I WANT TO USE IN MY STAAD MODEL.... HOW TO USE THIS AS A COLDFORMED STEEL (AMERICAN)

Hi, I am trying to model the frame from the RAM Structural System Tutorial. Inside the RAM Frame module, I performed the Joint Check which outputted all joints to be "OK" However, when I check the joints through "View/Update Joints" It shows a red signal…

what is your opinion in layout of tendons for this post-tensioned slab???? notes : spacing = 1.5 m max span = 9 m , slab thickness= 250 mm each tendon contains 5 strands (12.7 mm) can you suggest span layout to design sections????

Hello, I´m trying to analyze a model in STAAD.Pro V8i, said model consists of a slab as foundation, a perimetral RC wall and pedestals and beams to support the upper structure. The model has about 22000 plate elements and about 40 beams. Now to the problem…

I am new to STAAD pro connect. I need some help on how to model a steel transition cap shown in the attached photo. The cap consists of two top and bottom plates separated by cylindrical section. There are 24 gussets attached to the outer perimeter of…

I would like to be able to do bi-directional transfer between Revit and Staad. Both follows a different coordinate system, i.e. varied origin. What is the best way to do bi-directional integration such that I may update the model of a particular structure…

Staad.Pro.Connect edition won't open files I could open before the update. Any ideas?

What is the period time range of first mode of RC high rise buildings under seismic loads?

Good Everybody, I am Modeling a Circular Digester tank of 318Million Litters per Day , I have a doubt how to model the connection between the wall and raft footing. this how I modeled the Raft is 600mm thk and the wall is 350mm thk, I have modeled…

I am modeling a digester with a opening in the wall In the model plates near the opening (plate no: 8632,3026 and other plates around opening ) have abnormal Mx moments along the local x axis of the plate and also there directions are reversed is it…

I am modeling a digester tank , there is a walk above the dome resting on rcc wall, to transfer the slab dead load and live load i have created dummy elements over the walls and applied the dead load and live load as floor loads by grouping the beams…

Good Day, I am just new to Staad Pro so Kindly explain to me in very preliminary way, This is simple Slab of 350mm thickness Supported by beam of 350x350mm on four sides supported by pinned supports an uniform pressure load of 100kN/m2 is applied…

Hey I'm designing a mat foundation. I see two types of analyses zero-tension and linear. What is the basic difference between two? I read the manual but couldn't understand clearly. It would be great if anyone could explain it to me in layman language…

Ram Concept community, I have a question regarding the correct modeling practices for a PT two-way slab with a significant step. In my particular case, my slab step is occurring at mid-span perpendicular to my bundled tendons, and I have upturned…

I can not add plate to this area. Im not under standing this. How to add plate here for design of slab?

Dear Staad community. I'm having some problems to model a wall with a sloped beam, basically, I need to reshape some plates to match the sloped beam but I'm been unable to do it. Unfortunately, I'm not so savvy with plate modeling therefore, I hope…

how to compute the total deadload of the truss? I've watched a video tutorial where in the total deadload of the truss & purlins was computed, so that the resultings loads will be applied as roofload. But when I try to follow the computations I did not…

Hello all I have created an entire model for one of my courses. But I created an analytical model instead of a physical model. I see an option of creating an analytical model from a physical model but I need to do the vice-versa. Please let me know…
