Hi all,
I have a simple frame Analysis of a structure done using beam idealizations in Wildfire 3.0 I have a force acting at the center of my beam. I did Individual Benchmarking tests for the column and beam seperately
The questions i have are
1. I do not have any constraints between beam and column. I have just connected them. Is that correct?
2. How do i find the axial forces acting on the column
3. How do i find that my column has not buckled?
Would be great if anyone can help me with this. Iam a Novice in Pro Mechanica and wanting to learn. I have attached the file.
Thanks
Siva
