What am I missing out as someone sticking out with the 0.99.7822 version. I think I can update it to the latest version for my personal use but I opt not to since there may come a time I can't open it with the 0.99 version. There's a workaround it but better safe than sorry.
Going back, what...
Nothing much to this really, I've just come across a subscription for Autodesk and I'm thinking it may not be bad to learn about RSA. To those who had used it and currently using it, would you mind telling what it's good for and what it can't do?
Good day everyone!
I'm doing a write up for what would be my ideas for thesis, and can you refer me to which journal/s I can look into for better ideas and maybe reference them later on. My field of interests have been liquid-retaining concrete structures, steel connections, and concrete...
Does anybody know what this type of connections are called? Any references on how to design them?
I have a pretty much same structure to design, so I was thinking maybe I could do this scheme too. Any one who has an idea?
Good day!
May I ask for any reference material regarding secant pile design and the process? For reference, the project requires the use of secant pile as earth retention during excavation. This is my first time working with secant pile, so any help would be much appreciated.
Good day!
I basically have the same question as OP's comment in this tread, https://www.eng-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=402433.
Well to quote it,
"To calculate the natural period of this frame I used the formula T = 2*Pi*SQRT.(m/k) where m is the weight (assumed to be lumped at the top of...
Good day!
Do you have a reference for a ballpark figure of support reactions from a 4-legged silo. I know I have to check for overturning due to wind when empty, aside from that I think I have to consider seismic effects too. Any reference in designing a foundation for a silo would actually...
Good day!
Let me preface this that it's my first time using EC. EC3-1-1 Section 6.2.8 states that where shear force is present allowance should be made for its effect on moment resistance. Where shear force is less than half of plastic shear resistance the effect may be neglected, otherwise...
Thanks a lot guys. I guess it was just a confusion in my part upon seeing something unfamiliar but I understand it now. I'd take a look again over the ratio which is indeed doubtful.

While I do understand that such triangular plate does have an infinetesimally small piece of quad where the local stresses do apply. I'm actually trying to convert such local stresses to force. Out-of-plane shear stresses (SQX and SQY) and moments (Mx and My) conforms to...
Hello!
Can someone help me clarify about triangular plate stresses in STAAD. i know that this guide exist (see below)
but how would I interpret this in a triangular elements? something like this:
Thanks a lot btw.
So I had this retaining wall section that is all good and detailed. Problem is along its run is a sudden bend, like a 30deg bend if you know what I mean. As such, there would be an area where the reinforcement would be much denser due to overlapping. Is there any provision for this? Or just some...
Good day!
I'd like to ask whether to model the circular manhole in STAAD.Pro with or without the holes. We do think the walls in between holes would be the most critical area, however actually modelling a circular manhole with circular cutout is tedious work. Putting loads such as hydrostatic...
Good day!
In the American Concrete Pipe Association - Design Data 20, they introduce a lateral earth pressure analysis for the riser. How do I deal with the earth and hydrostatic pressure on the eccentric section (the eccentric frustum)? I'm looking into making it into its vertical and...
