Dear Engineers,
Im analysing a steel structure where I have to apply thermal load. below are the datas.
- Max. Temp 45 deg Celsius
- Min.Temp -35 deg Celsius
- Site Average maximum temperature : 36°C
- Site Average minimum temperature : -22°C
In STAAD we have below 3 things in the input cell. How to calculate this from the above input.
Temperature Change for Axial Elongation
Temperature Differential from Top to Bottom
Temperature Differential from side to side
