I have this glass balustrade, 1.5m interval of steel plate supports (post).
The laminated glass will be loaded with dead load (selfweight), wind load (1.1kPa) and live load of 1kN/m (at top).
If I model the glass in staad pro, do i need to combine DL, WL and LL in my load combinations in order...
Yes correct, this is curtain wall. Noted on that. So if I put a point support (for kicker) midway on the vertical mullion, what would be my release? I'm assuming to add it as a fixed-but support to restrain wind load.
Hi guys, I am in need of help.
I am confused, what are kickers? This is for vertical aluminum mullions, 7m in height. How can I apply these kickers on my staad model (photo below) to reduce mullion's buckling?
Please bear with me, I am new to this.
An illustration would be really helpful...
Hi guys,
I am in need of assistance. I have this bracket (attached picture) with corresponding loads. I need to get the bending stress of bracket and the tension stress at pt.1. Will there be a couple moment? And if so, how can I apply it in getting the stresses?
A sketch would be very...
