Dear all,
I have some doubts in STAAD,
1. Depending on the shape of the floor you may have to break up the FLOOR/ONEWAY LOAD into multiple commands. On referring to STAAD technical manual i didn't find a final conclusion regarding this query. Can you clarify in a detail manner?
2. In my model i am getting notes like "Design for bending, shear and combined interaction not implemented for Star angle section". How can i design those structures? Whether it will do beam utility check for those particular members or not?
3. Moment amplification factor is greater than 1.4 for some members based on IS 456 condition. In those cases what can i do to avoid those warnings in STAAD?
The model is checked in STAAD.Pro V8i (SS6), Version 20.07.11.90
Kindly all give your suggestions.
