Steel Frame Modeling in Sap 2000
Steel Frame Modeling in Sap 2000
(OP)
Hi
I used Sap 2000 v14 for steel modeling .
I modeled a 7 story building .The x Direction frame is moment frame and the Y Direction frame is simple frame with bracement.
But after the run,beams of moment frame had negligible shear and moment near zero.
the quastion is why?plz help me.
Am I modeling this buiding wrong?plz help.
thanks

Does the flooring span in the x direction?
If not, how is it supported?
As the moments and shears are low, are the axial forces high?

Timing has a lot to do with the outcome of a rain dance.
