STAAD.Pro es una herramienta utilizada para el análisis y diseño de las estructuras de todo tipo alrededor del mundo. Esta herramienta es utilizada por muchos ingenieros en diferentes proyectos, enfrentándose a diferentes factores dependiendo a la región donde el proyecto se ha llevado a cabo. Estos factores pueden ser: el clima, tipo de suelo, nivel de seguridad estructural requerido para la edificación y otros componentes que hacen diferente el diseño de cada proyecto. STAAD.Pro ayuda generando una simulación con las geometrías y materiales de la estructura para la toma de decisión del proyecto con la finalidad de que este sea eficiente.

No one likes to have very low pressure at their home or business, and low pressure is one of the most common complaints water systems get from their customers. There are several reasons for low pressure, and identifying the reason is essential in order to correct the problem. Simulating low pressure in your hydraulic model can identify/confirm the cause of the problem and point you to the right solution. Run the model and see how it compares to what is reported from the field. Once you can simulate the problem, you are well on your way to correcting it.

Partial wind load in STAAD.Pro is applied through “Groups”. By default, STAAD.Pro considers structures as enclosed. STAAD.Pro will calculate wind load on the nearest face of the structure blocking the wind or the entire exposed area. To apply partial wind load, we will have to create “Groups” selecting the group of entities where the wind load will be applied. Partial wind load The procedure of applying partial wind load Create the group, selecting the group of entities where the wind load will be added. Assign the wind load case to the group in the command file.  

Double gusseted plate in STAAD.Pro physical modeler is modelled as finite element. The gusseted plate modelled in STAAD.Pro physical modeler will capture the contribution of the joint stiffness and the structural response at the member ends. Double gusseted plate at the steel structure increases the moment resisting capacity at the joint. Double gusseted plate in SPPM Procedure of double gusseted plate modelling in STAAD.Pro Physical modeler Firstly, create the geometry of the double angle gusseted plate in SPPM. The geometry includes members, surface and the circular opening as shown in the video below. Secondly, transfer the physical model to analytical modelling after generating the model. Next, add properties to the structure in the analytical modeler and repeat the gusset plate in opposite direction using translation repeat. To account for the stiffness of the gusseted plates, define master nodes at each location as demonstrated in the video. Finally, add proper support and load to the structure. The plate stress contours of the double gusseted plate is generated by analyzing the structure.

Material properties in STAAD.Pro Physical Modeler can be assigned by a previously defined section or by defining a new section. We can define a new section by selecting Catalog, Model, or User database under Source in STAAD.Pro physical modeler. Use the Catalog option to select one of the included STAAD.Pro material definitions. Select the Model option to select catalog materials previously added to your current model. Choose the User Database option to select custom materials previously saved in your user database In STAAD.Pro Physical Modeler, both member specification and surface specification can be added.

Finite Element modelling in STAAD.Pro physical modeler is a quick way to model FE models like plate girder, base plate brackets etc. STAAD.Pro physical modeler internally generates the finite element mesh. The meshing is well optimized maintaining the proper plate-plate plate member connectivity. Procedure of modelling bracket in STAAD.Pro physical modeler Firstly, we will have to generate a grid in XZ plane along which we will have to create the flange of the bracket as a physical surface entity. (**Note: we can change the dimension of this surface with the help of spreadsheet) Secondly, we will have to generate a grid along XY direction. Along the XY plane grid, we will generate the wall support surface. Next, we will create circular holes. We can modify diameter later. Finally, after we create the entire model we will transfer it to analytical modeling. https://youtu.be/qi4tu21CfNw Finite Element modelling in STAAD.Pro Physical modeler
