RE: TRIANGULAR FACTORIZATION

Thank you sir. Nice to hear that my model can be analyzed by advanced analysis engine in 80 minutes. Can you confirm if there are major issues/errors in the result. We are planing to buy the "Advanced Analysis Plus Engine" license but we want to try it first.

Regards,

I understand that you are using BASIC solver which is matrix bandwidth dependent for run times. In other words, run time in basic solver is dependent on matrix bandwidth. When you are  using rigid DIAPHRAGM or master-slave the bandwidths become very large resulting in large factorization times. I would suggest you to use Advanced solver to handle this kind of cases. Please note that advanced solver comes with the license of Advanced analysis engine plus license as mentioned earlier.

This model contains large nos. of elements and load combinations as shown below.

 

This model gets analysed with advanced solver in about 61 mins

Please help me how to speed up the triangular factorization of my model. The size of model is 1.4MB with 21862 nodes, 26443 elements and 23000 lines. The triangular factorization for load case 1 alone takes more than one day. I am doing response spectrum analysis with floor rigid diaphragm. 

Thank you.

I do know manual verification methods and want to know exactly how to validate and verify RCC Design by using IS 456 2000 code in STAAD.Pro V8i SS6 & details of method like matrix method or portal frame methods.Do you have any verification example and model which we can refer?

To help us further troubleshoot the issue, please provide a little more detail like what are the steps leading up to the crash, is this happening for a particular model or for all models, what is the operating system you are using

RE: Applying wind loads on a cylindrical structure with plate elements.

$

The wind load generation in STAAD.Pro works on beam elements only. It identifies closed panels formed by beam elements to calculate the wind load on the panel and then distributes the load to the corner nodes of the panel based on the influence area. So if your structure is made up of plates, there are a couple of things you can do. You can either manually calculate the joint loads and apply those at the various nodes. Alternately since you know the pressure at various heights, you can apply the pressure as plate pressure loads ( Plate Loads > Pressure on Full plate ). You can select multiple plates at the same elevation at once and assign the pressure to these plates.

Ok thanks for uploading the file. Let me take a look and get back to you.

RE: ERROR: NOT ALL JOINTS SPECIFIED IN ABOVE SURFACE INCIDENCES ARE COPLANAR

You should not use surface elements unless you are modeling concrete shear walls. For all other types of structural entities, you should use plates. So I would suggest using a mesh of plates for your case. Coming to this specific error, it may be due to the fact that the nodes that you have used in the surface incidence are not in a single plane. However we need to take a look at the .std file to understand what is causing the error. The part you uploaded is from the output file.

ERROR: NOT ALL JOINTS SPECIFIED IN ABOVE SURFACE INCIDENCES ARE COPLANAR

Hi all,

I am modelling a hypar structure in tension. I have generated a surface mesh to divide the structure into 200 triangular plates (in order for them to be coplanar).

Should I apply loads differently or apply changes to SURFACE INCIDENCES? How?

What factor of safety should I give to TENSION when I use LOAD REPEAT?

Rivet Theory for Pile cap Design

$

Hi

The documentation of staad foundation suggests that two pile caps are designed according to rivet theory. Where can I find documentation or literature about what rivet theory is. In the days prior to the advent of software programs, we used to take the pile reaction and multiply the same with the distance from the centreline of the column to arrive at the moment in the cap. What does staad foundation do? I need some clarity on this urgently.
