Subject: How to control model after data entry in ideCAD Static 7? Program: ideCAD Static Version: 7.x 1. Check the geometry 2. Examine the deformation of the structure 3. Check the slab mesh 4. Check your analysis settings 5. Check your material information 6. Check your general load information Data entry in ideCAD Static 7 program After completion, you can review the topics described below in the program in order to avoid the problems caused by errors in data entry. 1. Check the geometry We recommend that you check the geometry at certain intervals while creating the model in the program. You can click Tools/Geometry Check to check the geometry. In the dialog that opens, mark the lines you want to be checked. You can review errors and warnings from the Check Results (Picture 1) dialog that will open in the next step. Picture 1 Dialog for displaying results 2. Examine the deformation of the structure If you get unexpected results in your elements after the modeling of the structure is completed and the analysis is done, checking the structure deformations in the 3D frame model will give you clues. For this; -> Click the right mouse button on an empty area on the perspective screen. -> Click 3D Frame from the drop-down menu. -> Frame model of your structure and View Results dialog will appear. -> Click the deformation line in the display results dialog. -> Click the frame icon in the lower right corner of the perspective screen and open the load combinations dialog. -> Select 1.4G+1.6Q load combination from the combination dialog and press the play button. -> Examine the deformation form on the perspective screen. When you examine this deformation shape, you can easily see if you have problems in the element connections.

3. Check the slab nets You can examine whether your slab nets are formed correctly in your project using the plan and perspective windows. To control network formation in slab floors; -> Check Full rigid diaphragm option from analysis settings. -> Press the Analysis/Tile Analysis button. -> At the same level, the red outer contours of your tiles that are directly connected to each other should be created in one go as in Picture 4. If it is created piece by piece as in Picture 5, your boundaries are wrong. In this case, you can check your tiles and find the faulty tiles to fix the situation, or you can try to delete them all and put your tiles back in. Picture 4 Correctly formed slab boundaries and finite elements Picture 5 Incorrectly formed slab boundaries and finite elements If you have used ribbed or cassette slabs in your system; -> Check Semi-rigid diaphragm option from analysis settings. -> Press the Analysis/Analysis+Reinforced Concrete button. -> After the analysis is complete, check the formation of slab meshes from the 3D frame (Picture 6). Picture 6 Ribbed and cassette slab finite elements 4. Check your analysis settings Analysis/Analysis Settings Make sure the parameters you entered in the menu are correct. 5. Check your material information Click the Data tab under the Structure tree and check the properties of your materials in the Materials folder under the Design folder. 6. Check your general load information Check the loads you have defined for the elements from the reports and 3D frame screen. Click the right mouse button on an empty area on the perspective screen. -> Click 3D Frame from the drop-down menu. -> Frame model of your structure and View Results dialog will appear on your screen. -> Click Downloads in the display results dialog. -> Check your load values by selecting Load Types and Load Conditions in the results display dialog.

Thank you Mr. Emrah, you learned a good lesson. Instead of talking about cow sausage, you said remember that you are an engineer by doing some questioning. You said ask, examine, then present your project.
