In the RF‑/STEEL EC3 add-on module, I have selected two bracings with the same size as the shear panel type in the "Parameters" window for a beam to be designed. Thus, the beam should be supported laterally in the middle. Why is the eigenvector arbitrary, anyway?
A high-rise steel structure has several stories and is stiffened by bracings in all stories.However, the first story is made of reinforced concrete. Therefore, the horizontal bracing should work via this concrete slab. How can I model this rigidly fixed concrete slab in RSTAB?
Is Revit able to control the specific member types of Dlubal Software? For example, round members of a wind bracing should be transferred as a tension member and not as a beam member.
I get Warning No. 469 "Lines [line numbers] lying in the surface intersect each other and share no common node". If I confirm the warning with "No", Error No. 639 appears: "Error No. 11 while generating the FE mesh!" What should I do?
I have defined springs on the upper chord of my crane girder laterally. Now, the allowable deformation is calculated according to the distance of the springs; how can I change it?
When designing the structure cores and partial cross-sections in the SHAPE‑THIN program, the following issue arises:The horizontal force does not act in the shear center. Therefore, I need to define a torsional moment to keep the component forces or shear stresses in the cross-section.Do I have to use the resulting torsional moment as M_tsek or M_tpri?
