Structural Engineering Software Reference book
(OP)
Hi,
At our offices, we have both Masterseries and Microstran as stuructural engineering packages but I dont know how to use them as I have studied on a different package? Do you know if I can find reference notes on how to use the software? (The 600 page reference book type, rather than a five minute demo video)
If you dont happen to know about the above, do you know of any tutorials for other structural engineering software, which explain basic stuff and examples? Though most software have different interfaces, the basic stuff (ie, assumptions for nodes, pins, load calculation etc..) i am assuming to be a bit similar for all software so I can still learn something

Do you know of any good titles?

Modelling of steel structures for computer analysis produced by SCI
and
Finite Element Design of Contrete Structures by G.A. Rombach

I have a thread running concurrently about how I have overcomplicated a structural model (I believe anyway), it would be nice to have a resource on "How to Model".

microstran web site has a couple of very good tutorials
and you can download these. I think one is the analysis and design of a portal frame and the other another good example which I learnt alot from. Are you using Vista and does ms run on vista or just Ms windows xp??
