Steel beam strength control

[recepekmekci]

First of all, good day, I am encountering the strength control error in beam design in İdecad steel. As you can see in the pictures, I made the beam-column connection as a butt joint. Is it possible to increase the strength of the section by showing it as a non-prismatic section as in sap2000? Thanks.

Re: steel beam strength check Hello; If you use guse combinations, the program does not calculate the required force and capacity in this region with the contribution of the combination. The subject is independent of the conjunction. The cause of the problem may be lovers. Have you performed the madness of lovers and operations such as division from all intersections? Good work.

Re: steel beam strength check Ms. Nurgül finally works with the beam under load in the gusset joint and enlarges the cross-section of the section in the joint. For this reason, I think that the effect of strength control should be taken into account. Please correct me if my information is wrong. Another point I would like to ask is, will it be possible to define non-prismatic cross-sections in the future? thanks.

Re: steel beam strength check Hello; In order to include the effect of guse in the system, the gusset must also comply with some rules geometrically. Otherwise, it would not be appropriate for the program to correctly model the effect of guse on the mathematical model. Therefore, the program does not automatically perform such an operation. It was noted as a demand, and the work on defining and designing variable sections is waiting in line for R&D works. With this procedure, gussets can be evaluated. However, the right approach here is to take the guse effect by intervening in the program in line with the engineer's own evaluation. In this process, you can intervene in the moment of inertia and shear area by entering a separate element with the assumption of a certain thickness in the region containing the guse. Good work.
