1. Write the steps involved to upload a .std file through web mail?

INTRODUCTION:

STAAD.Pro CONNECT Edition includes a new Ribbon-Based Graphical User Interface. All the STAAD.Pro V8i tools/commands are available in STAAD.Pro CONNECT Edition, but through the Ribbon, the tools are organized in a very logical, workflow-based layout. Through this course, we will walk you through the new graphical user interface to help you maintain your productivity while upgrading to STAAD.Pro CONNECT Edition.STAAD.Pro CONNECT Edition includes a new Physical Modeling Workflow. Through the Physical Modeler, you can model structural elements as they will be physically constructed, allowing you to model elements such as girders, multi-story columns, and slabs/walls quickly and accurately. (STAAD.Pro V8i includes an Analytical Modeling Workflow only.) Through the STAAD.Pro CONNECT Edition Physical Modeler, we can transfer data between STAAD.Pro, ISM (Integrated Structural Modeler), and a BIM application to increase your productivity in creating accurate construction documents. Structural members, such as beams/columns/braces, concrete walls, and concrete slabs can be transferred into the STAAD.Pro Physical Modeler from ISM and from ISM into the STAAD.Pro Physical Modeler. Through this course, we will introduce you to the new workflows that are available for integration between ISM and STAAD.Pro CONNECT Edition.

PROCEDURE:

Open the software Staad pro in the landing page

Click on share icon

Click on send mail

Browse the file we want to share

Click on send mail while ensuring we are signed in

2. Name the different materials that can be designed using STAAD Pro.

The materials that can be designed using Staad pro are

Aluminium

Concrete

Steel

Stainless steel

3. Is it possible to capture images in STAAD Pro? If yes how?

Yes we can take image in Staad pro by using the command utilities

4. Name the three ways by which you can create a model.

Three ways by which we can create a model

1. Analytical model

2.Physical model

3.Building model

5. Write the steps followed to assign properties in a model.

The steps involved in the assign properties are:

Open property in geometry

Go to Define material

Select the rectangle

Give the dimensions

Material type is concrete

Assign the property to the material.

1. Name any six design parameter involved in RCC design.

The six design parameter involved in RCC design are:

Clear cover

FC compressive strength of concrete

FY tensile strength of steel

Max Min dia of bar

Code of practice

End concrete design

2. What are the different cursor types available in STAAD Pro?

The cursor availablr are:

Right click and select cursor the option are available

Node cursor

Beam cursor

Plate cursor

Surface cursor

Solid cursor

Plate and solid cursor

Geometric cursor

Physical membrane

3. How will you generate different views for a model? State the steps involved.

Go to the view option in the ribbon there we can get option like

Top view

Isometric view

Front view

Left view

Right view

Bottom view

Back view

4. Explain the procedure to define a “Simply Supported” condition in STAAD Pro

Go to the support command in the tool pallet command

Click on create support command

There we can get option like fixed support, pin support, fixed but , enforced but , cable support, inclined support

5. Name any five topics that you will include while creating DBR.

DBR Design basis report

To take up a project from the scratch to the end, its needed

To specify the data and compile data received and analysis and design of structural element

It contains the assumption and specification to develop the project

It will help to avoid the scope and the creep that can lead to budget overness

Contains the general column drawing

Contains the project planning

6. Describe the term “Multi material design” of STAAD Pro.

It is used for 3D model generation, analysis and multi material design

The Staad pro supports several steel, concrete and timber material in a separate member

This separate member will coordinate and the formed in to a structure

1. Name the structure systems in STAAD Pro? Explain each system?

They are four structural system in staad pro

STRUCTURE SYSTEM LOADING	DEFORM	GEOMETRY	JOINT
Space 3D	3D	3D	ANY
Plane 2D	2D	2D	ANY
Frame parpen to XZ	Parpen to XZ	2D	ANY
Truss 3D	3D	3D	PINNED

2. Explain the coordinate system adopted in STAAD Pro software.

There are two coordinate systems in Staad pro

Gloabal Axis: Global Axis is fixed in the coordinate system

Local Axis: Local Axis is variable and is used for the orientation of the beam with the load variable

3. Elaborate DBR and its uses.

DBR Design basis report

To take up a project from the scratch to the end, its needed

To specify the data and compile data received and analysis and design of structural element

It contains the assumption and specification to develop the project

It will help to avoid the scope and the creep that can lead to budget overness

Contains the general column drawing

Contains the project planning

4. Explain the different types of analysis options in STAAD pro.

5. Explain the difference between Fixed and Fixed But condition.

Fixed supports can resist vertical and horizontal forces as well as a moment. Since they restrain both rotation and translation, they are also known as rigid supports. This means that a structure only needs one fixed support in order to be stable. All three equations of equilibrium can be satisfied..The Fixed But support condition is used to allow the user to define which degrees of freedom of a node are free and which are fixed. For example, Pinned support is equivalent to Fixed But MX MY MZ (no movement allowed, rotation allowed). When the FIXED or FIXED BUT type of support is specified, for those degrees of freedom which are to be treated as fully restrained, STAAD assumes the displacements to be known quantities whose value is zero. Hence, those degrees of freedom are not considered for the stiffness matrix, and their value is not calculated. (For the FIXED BUT support type, if any degrees of freedom are assigned a spring using the KFX thru KMZ terms, those are treated as unknowns and their displacements are calculated).

Practical
1. Create a STAAD Model with the following Specification
AIM a:

To create a beam of span 16m

INTRODUCTION:

PROCEDURE:

Open STAAD.pro Connect Edition

Go to create

Go to Grids > Beam grids

Grid dimensions are to be given spacing as 1m and in X and Y direction are 16

Click on the Grid menu and draw a beam of span 16m

For the node view click on CTRL+N or right click and labels and view nodes

AIM b.

Support : Fixed on one end and Roller support(Horizontal) on the other end

Go to Support>Create

Adding Fixed support and roller support horizontal on the other end

Use cursor to assign

AIM c.

A point load of 50 kN at the mid-point

Go to Loading> Load cases details>Add >Dead load

Select dead load >Add >Self load

Select dead load > Add>Member load > Concentrated load of -50

Go to Analysis>Run Analysis

AIM d.

Draw SFD and BMD using software

To view the Bending Moment Diagrams, select the Beam page from the left side. From the top menu bar, choose Results - View value. Under Ranges, choose All. (The All button means the Bending moment diagram will be displayed for all members.)

Under the Beam Results tab, you will see the options Bending, Shear, Axial, Displacement and Stresses.
Make the appropriate choice.

Click on the Annotate button. Then click on the close button.

Here are a group of of other options to view BMD, SFDs

To view the bending moment diagram for individual members you may go to the Beam > Graphs page on the left and click on any member and the BMD, SFD and axial force diagrams for the member would be displayed on the right
