The truss is eccentric , the knee brace is from the column to the lower chord of truss .The bracing is of eccentric type. Roof framing is cladding aluco bond 4 mm thick . columns are pipe sections dia 610 mm x 40 mm
Dear Ron,
truss has a specific geometry to withstand loading's, so i just asked your opinion. Sharing ideas and opinions is what this forum is about , correct ?
Please find attached the truss design , This is originally modeled in SAP 2000 v 15 ultimate , this is a roof canopy structure, 115...
hi guys,
kindly find attached a sketch which shows a eccentric truss with knee bracing for the column. This is designed for the huge lateral forces from the wind load.kindly put your reviews for the attached design.
Dear Engineers,
I'm new to SAP , Initially i have done analysis on structure using Static Linear Analysis Option with load combinations.
I changed my Analysis Type to Static Non Linear (because i had to model cable in the structure) ,but the Load Combinations do not work and do not reflect the...
Hi ,
I am designing a Space frame canopy , the support conditions are in the attached file .
Kindly advice whether the support conditions should be Release Fx Fy Fz Mx My Mz or Should we define springs , if yes how to define them .
Thanks Guys !
Hi , For Space Frame ( 3D) analysis , what should be the member releases ( Release Mx , My , Mz) , i tried defining truss(3D) for members but it causes a error in output , " **WARNING - THERE WERE MORE THAN 12 DOF WITH ZERO STIFFNESS "
I think the Space frame members should be release at the...
