View ArticleRE: question of defining DJ1 and DJ2 in STAAD?
We acknowledge that this can be a tedious exercise for a large model. Improving this is one of the tasks being considered for one of the upcoming releases.
View Articlequestion of defining DJ1 and DJ2 in STAAD?
As you might know, DJ1 (start node) and DJ2 (end node) are used in conjunction with the deflection (DFF) command in calculating beam deflection. Beams in STAAD are very often made up of multiple...

This appears to be an interesting situation. Can you please upload the STAAD file? However, in theory, it is not sufficient to consider 90% participation of masses - we need to ensure that we have...
View ArticleRE: Can we applied load on beam bottom flange, instead of C.G.
By default, STAAD assumes that transverse loads act along a plane passing through the shear center. If the plane of action of the load is at some distance away from the shear center, you can apply that...
