Hello all,
I'm analyzing a mat foundation in STAAD and would like to get input on the subgrade modulus being used. I'm using plate mat foundation supports in the Y-direction in STAAD. The geotech report stated a unit subgrade modulus of 150 pci and suggested that the subgrade modulus be...
Hello,
I am modeling an existing, large storage structure with precast concrete columns, steel girders, steel purlins, and metal decking. I'm focused on modeling the steel framing members to determine member forces. The girders are fastened to the top of the precast concrete columns and the...
