Hello forum once again,

For design of fully welded BCF as per Eurocode-3, the effective width calculated on the basis of EN1993-1-8, eq 4.6a.

One of the input required in this formula is root rad, now tell me from where this root radius is extracted for rolled I or H section, I dont find the root rad in STAAD section database (RAM dont have its own section database, i think).

What i noticed that RAM uses wrong value (less compare to actual) of root radius for HE120AA resulting in less effective width.

I thought this may be problem with one section, so i changed the size, also changed the section to UC but the result were wrong again.

Please confirm...

In the results of RAM, for fillet welds min throat thickness required are mentioned, I find very often it is less than 3 mm eg., 2.45mm, 2.6mm etc.

Sorry I dont have the evidence currently, will post a screenshot when i will find it again.

Whereas Eurocode 4.5.2.(2) states that "The effective throat thickness of a fillet weld should not be less than 3 mm."

Also in case of Fixed bi axial BP EN (I havent check other types) base plate design, in results min edge distance was given as 6.35mm for anchor size of 20mm.

But i think the edge distance shall not be less than 1.2do, where do bolt dia.

See attached screenshot.

To be honest this is taking too much time to check whether all calculations are right, almost equal to manual caln.

I am using RAM connection integrated with STAAD 20.07.11.90.

please check attached snap link.

where beams are not in square pattern floor load are not applied.

how to add floor load in this case.

regards sandesh 

Can someone please help me to design and and analysis of bow string steel arch road over bridge with response spectrum loading and moving load generator (it will focus on building the model and moving load command and also designing of steel members) .

Can a joist girder moment frame be modeled in RAM Elements?  I have a moment frame with columns and beam.  I would like to swap the beam for a joist girder.

Are there any examples of how to design a cantilever beam?  How to use the parameters CAN, DFF, DJ1 and DJ2?

Is there a way to print story drifts using UBC 1997 in Staad.Pro?

Hi,

We are working on the Revit to Staad Pro Workflow. We want to create the grid in Revit and export to ISM and import into Staad Pro to model some of the structure. When we tried, the grid is transfered to ISM but not into Staad Pro, are we missing something or is this not possible. 

As a work around we have tried to import a DXF of the grid but this has been disabled in our version of Staad Pro (20.07.11.90). 

How can we get the grid to transfer into Staad? we will be upgrading Staad soon, has this issue been fixed in the new version?

Also i have several warnings about my windload that i cant seem to fix. Here is the file:

https://drive.google.com/open?id=1X6AhaR0JVIGzVwvy42PAWkxYI3LrQF0H

The warning for beams when designed as per Indian Standard 13920- " Singly Reinforced beam fails and so increase beam depth". 

My point is when the beam section fails as singly reinforced beam , why don't STAAD design the beam as doubly reinforced beam instead of asking user to increase the depth of beam.

Is there any design parameter which need to be assigned for such cases.

Please help with your valuable suggestions.

Rupesh

hi , can someone give me some clue , why did i get 17.589 cps when i am running rayleigh calculation , i check all support is already correct and  i also change my beam configuration but it also doesn't work ... any suggestion?

I am lost here

How is it that my calculation does not tally with Staad's output. I used staad's reported weight of the floor levels and applied provisions of UBC 1997 for base shear.

Good afternoon ,

I joined in aluminum and glass comapny as strucural design engineer , but my previous work in concrte feild ,

This company speicilst in curtain wall designs and canopy

I want to ask if i can design all elements for curtain walls (Aluminum +Glass + brackets connections+ cladding) analysis and designs by staad pro or any program

Please i need urgent advise and help .

Thank you for your cooperation 

Q.1 What is taper section as defined in STAAD??
Q.2 Can we use it for defining section Formed / welded steel plates?? OR SHALL WE DEFINE PROPERTIES OF BUILT UP SECTION IN GENERAL SECTION OR IN SECTION WIZARD???

Hi, 

I have a semi-rigid diaphragm modeled in my model.

1) Could you explain to us how the location of story shear is being located in the model. Should this be located based on centroid of the building? And is there a reason that it is being broken up into two parts? 

2) Looking at the load distribution to frames, we noticed that the shear wall modeled in Frame no. 4 is significantly higher compared to other frames. We observed that Frame no.3 which is closer proximity to the shear wall is not contributing in distribution of the shear forces. Note that the Frame no. 1,2,3, and 5 are steel braced frames. Could you explain to us the assumption of the software in distribution of the forces with relative stiffness? It is in our opinion that Frame no.3 should have comparable shear distribution to the frame. Is there a potential modeling error you may know of? 

Appreciate your help and thank you in advance. 

I created a simple STAAD model of a platform supported by 3/4" cables. When I run the analysis, an error message states: "ERROR:MEMBER DESIGN FALED FOR MEMBER   147". Member 147 is a cable. As an attempt to fix the issue, I replaced member 147, which is a cable, to a channel. When the analysis is ran with the section change, I get no error messages. My previous version of STAAD would not have created this error message, but the Connect version does. Is there a parameter needed for the cable to prevent the error message?
