Problem:
All columns fixed at their bases. Floor height is 3m. Other dimensions are as shown in the plan. Loads from the partition, floors are considered. Perform an optimized design. Report the optimized sections as your result. Report how many members fail stress check.

Then Press ok
Defining sections: In order to draw beams and columns, we have to import sections.Go to DefineSection PropertiesImport I/Wide Flange
Select all beams using shift key and then press add
Select the beams(Exterior) you want to apply distributes load: Go to AssignFrame/Line LoadsDistributed
Select direction
Type value as 2
Go to Base view
Select the joints you want Go to Assign(Menu)Joint/pointPoint Springs to apply the foundation Give the values from the foundations table reaction
Go to Display Menu to see different Analysis results like reactions(support), Bending moment diagram e.t.c
Analysis and design sections differ, so please select NO to continue the optimized design process.
The members which failed in capacity check must be reassigned. Select YES to select them.
The members capacities are shown by different colors. Un lock the model to reassign the selected members.
Go to AssignFrame LineFrame section Import sections upto ISMB 600 and assign ISMB600.
Re run analysis and design. Verify whether all members passed or not. If some members still exceed capacity repeat the process explained above to reach safe design.
If the imported sections are not sufficient to meet your capacity requirement you have to create a section and assign it. For creating a section Go to Add I/wide flange section and give suitable dimensions to meet your requirement. And repeat the same process to reach safe design.
Right click on any member to view member wise results. The circled part shows the analysis and design sections. I have created a built beam to satisfy capacity requirement.
Thank you
