STAAD COLUMN BRACING

STAAD COLUMN BRACING

STAAD COLUMN BRACING

(OP)
I AM TRYING TO MAKE A PROGRAM IN STAAD WITH A 30FT COLUMN. BRACING Y-Y 1/3 PTS. PINNED AT BOTH ENDS. WITH A DEAD LOAD AND LIVE LOAD. CAN SOMEONE HELP ME HOW TO PUT CODES IN FOR THE 1/3 OF THE LENGTH BRACING AND THE LOADS. SHOULD IT BE A JOINT JOAD AT THE TOP? OR A CONCENTRATED LOAD THROUGHOUT?

RE: STAAD COLUMN BRACING

A joint load at the top............

RE: STAAD COLUMN BRACING

In the Steel Design section, set the LY length parameter to 1/3 of the length.  Be sure to use the right units.
