Week 2 Challenge

1.1 Circular section can be assigned using below option

1.2 Unit system

In general, we can provide unit system while starting the model as below

1.3 Bay frame inputs

Geometry > Structure wizard > Frame models

1.4 Codal standards incorporated in Staad Pro

1.5 Design compressive strength assignment in Staad pro

2.1 Input steps involved in RCC design

2.2 Difference between Fixed and Enforced

Fixed support: Fixed support restrains both translation and rotation freedom of the node.

Enforced: This kind of support restrains in both translation & rotation with stiff spring properties. These supports will allow displacement at nodes and can be more appropriate condition for dynamic support conditions

3.1 Steps in Analysis of structure using Staad Pro

1. Analytical modeling

2. Section assignment for Beams, Column & Slab

3. Material assignment

4. Support conditions

5. Loadings & Load combinations

6. Analysis

3.2 Ways of modeling in Staad pro

(a) Through nodes & lines development

(b) Through structure wizard

3.3 Types of supports in Staad pro

(a) Pinned support
