CHANGING MATERIAL GRADE AFTER ANALYSIS IS PERFORMED

CHANGING MATERIAL GRADE AFTER ANALYSIS IS PERFORMED

CHANGING MATERIAL GRADE AFTER ANALYSIS IS PERFORMED

(OP)


please check the attached sap file . i am a new user to sap and have faced some small issue while using sap2000

i have the following issues .

1) to the simple supported beam , i have assigned material proeprties of steel grade Fe-250 (fy -250 Mpa) .

but still after the analysis & design operations are performed , the design is performed based on default grade of steel in sap which is A992fy50(fy -345 Mpa).

the fy value taken by sap has effected my plastic & elastic section modulus values when compared to hand calculated values.

also it is effecting crossectional resistance to shear and bending values for limit state design .

kindly please guide me on how to reassign the grade of steel ,i couldnt find the method to do it.
