RISA 3-D Design Rules
RISA 3-D Design Rules
(OP)
Hey all,
Is there anyway to set up a design rule for beams that limits deflection to L/360, L/480 etc. so when using suggested shapes it doesn't just apply a member that passes for strength? I am using RISA 5.0.
Thanks!

RE: RISA 3-D Design Rules
RISA-3D does not have a "code check" for deflection that limits the deflection ratio for the beam. The deflection ratio is reported to the user (in the Member Deflections) spreadsheet. But, this is never compared to an "allowable" deflection level.
This can, however, easily be done in the RISAFloor program which has some pretty advanced features for the design / optimization of beams for deflection.
