STAAD PRO

Features : 1. It is based on Finite Element Method (FEM). 2. It is used to analyse 2D (Plane) structures. 3. It is used to analyse 3D (Space) structures. 4. It is used to design RCC structures. 5. It is used to design Steel structures. 6. It is used to design Timber structures. 7. It is used to design Plastic structures. 8. Earthquake analysis can be done using Staad Pro. 9. Wind load analysis can be done using Staad pro. 10. It has built in Codes. 11. Automatic Load calculation can be done using Staad Pro. 12. It is 100% accurate and flexible. Steps in Staad Pro : 1.Creation of Structure. 2.Member Properties. 3.Suuport conditions. 4. Loadings 5. Analysis type 6. Post Analysis Print. 7.Design. 8. Analysis. 9. View output Results. Sign conventions: Axial Loads: Compression +ve Tension -ve Bending Moments: Tension at top (Hogging) +ve Tension at bottom (Sagging) -ve Shear Force: Parallel and in the direction of Local Y axis +ve Design of Individual members: 1. Beams : MZ, FY 2. Columns : FX,MY,MZ 3. Footings : FX, FY, MX, MZ. Support Conditions: For design We can take following condition: 1. Isolated Footings on Rock : Fixed case. 2. Isolated Footings on Firm soil (say SBC >25t/m2) 3. Isolated Footings on soft soil : Hinged case. 4. Footings on raft or Pile foundation : Fixed condition. PROBLEM NO.1:
