Hi,

In my STAAD file, Prismatic Member is defined. But prob is "When more than 1 such member is there". How can we recognize them n distinguish them ?
Look at the picture below, highlighted properties:

Hello,sir:

When I run analysis in STAAD PRO it can't continue and the error come out as the picture attached below. This model is OK but after some beams added this error come out. And I have tried to add MEMORY 120 or adjust the NL xxx but this problem still can't be solved.

Anyone could help will be highly appreciated.

I designed a structure for our undergraduate research but i keep messing up with errors and warnings such as

-zero stiffness

-instability at joints

-member not supported

is my designed structure just not designed well or i can't combine steel design on top of a concrete design?

thank you for answering.

RAM SS - concrete to steel column transition

$
0
0

I'm trying to model a transition from concrete columns (below) to steel columns (above) that occurs between two floors (Level 4 & 5) of my building. I'm currently thinking the transition detail will occur just below the steel beam framing for the floor above (Level 5).

Options for how to model it I've considered:

  • Model the concrete columns to level 5. And don't show steel columns until level 5-6.  I don't like this because it doesn't include the level 5 loads in my steel column / base plate design.
  • Model the steel columns supporting the floor above full height to the floor below. This is conservative for the design of the steel column because it will include the full unbraced length from level 4 to 5 for the design of the column when it reality, the steel is only about 2' below level 5.
  • Should I model an extra "level" that has no floor diaphragm at the elevation of the column transition? While this might work in terms of the model looking right and possibly for the gravity design, I'm worried this might cause stability problems. I don't think these stability issues are really too significant as my plan is for the transition from concrete to steel columns to occur within a few inches of the bottom of the steel beams for level 5, so I feel it's braced well. 

Is there some other way to specify the transition between stories I'm not thinking of?

Dear STAAD Users,

Please let me know why STAAD Pro is not graphically showing the vertical shear distribution of base shear calculated by using Euro Code 8 Response Spectrum. Please advise me how to know or how to calculate the vertical shear distribution of the Seismic Base Shear Calculated by STAAD Pro using Euro Code 8 Response Spectrum. 

Seismic load by applying notional load

$

Hello,

I am trying to use notional loads(ASCE7-05 Section 11.7.2) as seismic load that's why the building is assigned to Seismic Design Category A.

And I will use direct analysis method when designing the building as well.

I wonder there is no problem or not if I use notional load function in STAAD as both seismic load and direct analysis at once.

What I want to wondering is in detail as below:

For example, when using combination : 1.2D+L+E (D = dead load, L = live load, E = seismic load), 

then, Notional load in STAAD = 1.2D * (0.002 + 0.01) + 1.6L * (0.002 + 0.01)

(0.002 = notional load factor in direct analysis, 0.01 = equivalent later loads in Seismic Design Category A)

Hi sir, kindly help me modify my file, Storey Drift Failed, im using ASCE for design

Beam Result Sign Convention query

$

Hi all,

I have a question regarding Beam Results Sign Convention. If there are the query about this one, Please excuse if I ask again.

1. When I try to investigate the result. I noticed that in Beam End Forces Summary Tab (Beam118.jpg), the value of Mz is -1.9 kN-m. 

2. When I Check in graphs (Beam118_Graphs.jpg), The Value of Mz is still -1.9 kN-m. The same convention in Beam End Forces Summary.

3. But when I check in Beam End forces All Tab (Beam118_All.jpg). The convention becomes positive. 

In our calculation workflow, we normally extract values from Beam End Forces All tab as Im afraid that there will be discrepancy especially when designing Beam Reinforcement.

Please enlighten me about this one.

Thank you all in advance. Attachment below.

I have updated from a previous STAAD.Pro CONNECT Edition version to Version 21.03.00.146. After doing this I opened a project to find all the standard Chinese profiles missing.

When I click Specification → Database → China → Rolled Steel, I get the following:

When I click Specification → Section Database, I see the profiles:

In the folder C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Bentley\Engineering\STAAD.Pro CONNECT Edition\Default\Sections, I see the file ChineseSections.db3:

I have an older install of STAAD.Pro V8i SELECTseries 6 that I can use as a workaround, but I would like to be able to use the latest version.

Hellow Every one,

I am facing now an Issue with the creation of the calculation sheet in STAAD foundation.

It shows errors while inserting Footings sketchs as shown in the attached image. then the calc sheet is genetated showing a blank area instead of foundation sketches.
