RE: Bridge Deflection Manual Calculation
I would suggest to use SET SHEAR command in order to dishonor the shear deformation effect
View ArticleRE: Bridge Deflection Manual Calculation
Specify the command"SET SHEAR"on the second line of your input file. This will forcibly switch off shear deformations from the calculations.Example:-STAAD SPACESET SHEARUNIT KIP FEETJOINT...

Thanks Rajat. After setting this command, the deflection reduced from - 600 mm to - 593 mm. Can you guys please provide me the formulas to manually calculate the deflection?

I designed a bridge in staad.pro and found the deflection. I want to know how to calculate the deflection manually or if possible see how staad.pro calculates it. I would be very grateful to anyone...

Two changes to make. In Modeler, layout a second deck on the top and the bottom area that is at 90 degree orientation, otherwise only the girders in that area will get loaded. Second, and more...

When you say top and bottom area, what are you referring to exactly?

Ok I took care of the deck situation, however the deflections are still to high in some areas, despite the limits I assigned on beams of certain size (l=30' ,l/360=0.083") the program doesn't seem to...

In your model, the deck is non-composite, so the beams are also non-composite and the only deflection criteria that matters is the last set, the non-composite deflection criteria, which limits Live...
