    Unbraced Length Ratio (Major and Minor)

    Dear colleagues, Let's imagine that we're working on a metallic beam with 10 meters length and it was devided in 6 frames for a better analysis. The working code is the Euro Code. After running the Design/Check of structure, I verified that SAP2000 assume values, which I think they are for...

    Triangular steel column

    Hello! I´m testing a FEM of a triangular column with 16.5m height which will hold a publicity screen on the top. For the triangular column I used on the edges of the triangule tubes D244.4x5.4 and between them steel plates S275 with 10mm thickness. The edges have a distance between them of 1m...

    Periodic Loading

    Dear colleagues, In order to get some answers to my previous thread, I´m solving the exemples provided on SAP2000 vs12, menu HELP. Therefore, these are my doubts: PROBLEM L: 1- Is it the force P(t) equal to 1 because it will be multiplied by the force in each period of time of the functions...

    Non-linear wind analysis

    Dear colleagues, I need to create a wind analysis on a column with 16 meters height. It will hold on the top a publicity plate with 6m width per 4.5m height. At this moment I´m able to insert on my model static loads from the dynamic analysis provided on the regulation book. This loads already...

    Composite structures software

    Hello! I wonder if someone can give me an advice about a software that calculates composite structures (slabs; beams and columns). I´ve been doing this calculation by hand with the help of Excel and I´m now looking for something faster. I don´t need a very detailed software, I just want to...

    Composite slab

    Dear coleagues! I´m calculating a composite slab with a Zinc plate below. How can I get the moments on the slab between the "beff"? Should I consider it as one or should I calculate the metalic beam and the concrete slab (between beff) as separated elements? I´m using EuroCode 4 for this. I...

    Plastic center in WSQ/HSQ beams

    Hi everyone! I want to create a a beam type WSQ (or HSQ c.f picture http://www.forssellssmide.se/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=12&Itemid=30 ). This beam is hollow and its purpose is to support pre-fabricated slabs. I´m working on a 16.20m span and I´m using steel S275. The loads...

    Shear forces in small excentricities

    Dear colleagues, I have an excentricity between 2 columns of 190mm distance from their gravity centre. At the point of excentricity I´ve a beam 0,3x0,6 Performing an hand calculation on the beam, I usually increase the shear value at a 3.d distance from the support, dividing the shear value by...

    Frame partial fixity springs

    Hello! I want to simulate a metalic structure with intermedium values (50% of stiffness) on the joints in SAP2000. How can I find 'k' values that could simulate my reality? Thank you agps
