The above figure shows a truss from several truss supposed to cover certain area.As shown the truss has a
cantilever part ,its span equals 4 meters.The proposed truss depth is 3 m.The loads are shown as
concentrated on tuss joints.The values of its load case are shown .
Use all the data you take in steel course to design and analyze steel truss.
Truss
2.
One of the methods that you can construction lines and then draw on these lines the truss members
Noting that the no. of construction lines is excluding Ist line..
Property
In which we can define or choose sections properties of the members of the truss.
Spec.:
Support:
Load:
In which we can define the applied loads, load cases, load combinations.
Material
Supports
By clicking on the support icon the shown window will appear. We have to create new kinds of supports
Use the mouse and click on the nodes according to its support type as shown below
4. Defining Loads
The creation and assignment of load cases involves the following two steps:
For example
Dead Load Case can be Load Case No.1
Live Load Case can be Load Case No. 2 and Wind Load is the Case No.3
After Creating the commond of (Perform AnalysisCheck);We have to assign the members that want to be this type of analysis for it.
Click Assign and then use the cursor and choose all the members,thus all the members should be
highlighted as shown below.
Pre-Print
To add the Pre-Print Commond click" Define Commands"
Support reactions
Analysis results
Member Forces
Max Forces
Add which property you need and then use cursor to ASSIGN to which member in the truss
Note
Generally,in any program ,try to make some checks about the shapes of defletions,BMD,SFD.Also check
the level of reactions. Just to make sure that there is no significant nput error.
Viewing The OutPut File
During the analysis process,STAAD creates an Output file .This file provides important information on
whether the analysis was performed properly.
For example,if STAAD.Pro encounters an instability problem during the nalysis process,it will be reported
in the output file.
Alternatively ,we can select the File/View/Output File/STAAD Outputoption from the top menu.
The End..
