CHAPTER-I
INTRODUCTION TO STAAD Pro. ENVIRONMENT
STAAD Pro. Stands for Structural Analysis And Design Program
All structural analysis software generally consists of three parts: Pre Processing: Generates the model, assembles and organizes all data needed for the analysis. Processing: Calculates displacements, member forces, reactions, stresses, etc. Post Processing: Displays the results.
STAAD Pro. Workflow Process:
The process of modeling and designing in STAAD Pro. can be summarized into the following general
workflow process, which is suggested inherently by the on-screen organization of the tabs within the
program:
1. Basic Geometry: Define the basic geometry of the structure using beams, columns, plates
and/or solid elements.
2. Section Properties: Define the sizes of members by width, depth, cross sectional shape, etc.
3. Materials Constants: Specify material such as timber, steel, concrete, or aluminum to define
Poisson’s Ratio, Coefficient of Thermal Expansion, density, etc.
4. Member Specifications: Define member orientations, member offsets, member releases where
moment transfer is to be limited or eliminated, and conditions that only allow a partial
transfer of certain types of forces such as tension-only.
5. Supports: Define support locations and boundary conditions including moment fixity, support
stiffness, and support angle.
6. Loads: Assign loads such as self-weight, dead, live, wind and seismic, and define load
combinations.
7. Analysis Instructions: Indicate the type of analysis to be performed (regular analysis, P-delta,
Buckling, Pushover, etc.) and define associated options.
Objective: Analyze the following Roof Truss (Howe roof) and find out the following values for Load
Combination UFL;
a) Support reactions
b) Forces for the members a, b, c, d
