answer 1

• Open the software Staad pro in the landing page
• Click on share icon in
• Click on send mail
• Browse the file u want to share
• click on send mail
• Ensure that you are sign in

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

answe2

1 steel

2 concrete

3 Aluminium

4 timber

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

answer 3

yes, by snaping tool and amother one is go to tab and select picture.

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

answer4

There are three methods of creating the structure data:

1. analytical
2. physical
3. building

answer 5

go to material and select the material and assign.

answer 2. 1

1. geometry.
2. property.
3. material.
4. support.
5. loading.
6. analysis.

answer2. 3

go to view tab, isometric view, top view, back view, front view, left view, right view,

answer2. 4

go to support, click on creat, open box click on fixed, add and assign on beam,

answer2. 5

1. area of zone
2. wind speed
3. material specification
4. soil type
5. loading condition

3. 1.Name OF the structure system

answer3.1

a. SPACE whose geometry is 3D and loading can be from 3 direction and joints may be any

b. PLANE whose geometry is 2d and loadingin 2 direction and even deformation in 2direction.

c. FRAME. whose geometry is 2d ,loading is perpendicular to the horizotal axis and jointa may be any

d TRUSS whose geometry is 3d and loadind in 3d, but joints is pinned.

3. 2 Which coordinates system adopted in staad pro.

answer 3. 2

GLOBAL COORDINATE SYSTEM adopted in staad pro.

answer 3. 4.Types of analysis

a .perform analysis- it is linear static analysis and mainly used in building of primary load condition.

b. p delta analysis- it is 2nd order analysis used in seismic zone or windy area analysis.

c perform cable analysis - used in cable ,mostly in bridges.

3. 5. Difference between fixed and fixed butt condition.

answer 3. 5

fixed - in this condition body will not move in translational as well as rotational motion. i.e restrain

fixed but-in this condition body will move in horizotal ,so release in Fx and Mz.

Practical
1. Create a STAAD Model with the following Specification
a. A beam of span 16m
b. Support : Fixed on one end and Roller support(Horizontal) on the other end
c. A point load of 50 kN at the mid-point
d. Draw SFD and BMD using software
