    Lesson 5 - Concrete Design (Interactive method)

    Procedure:
    (Using an sub-frame beam model)
    Preparation:
    1. Model the geometry, assign section properties, assign supports, assign loads and add
    the analysis command.

    2. Analyze the model

    Design Mode:
    1. Go to Mode > Interactive Design” Concrete Design. Then the RC designer module will
    be loaded.

    2. Design layer > Envelopes


    In this mode, the load cases used for the design will be selected.
    Click “New Env.” And enter a name for the envelope. Select the load cases to be included in the
    envelope.

    3. Design Layer > members


    In this mode, the individual member elements will be combined in to a single member (physical
    member). When the RC design is done, the reinforcement bar sizes, curtailments, anchorages
    and continuity will be considered based on this overall member behavior.

    Using the “elements cursor” select the beam elements (The


    beams should be of same sectional properties and collinear)
    and go to Members > Form members.

    4. Design Layer > Groups/Briefs


    In this mode, the following will be done

    STAAD Pro

    4.1 Briefs: Specify the design codes and the design parameters
    4.2 Groups: Add physical members to relevant Design Briefs

    Click on “New brief”

    Next , select the Brief, and click “Edit Brief”


    Set the Design Parameters:

    STAAD Pro

    Next, add the beams to the groups:


    Using the “member cursor” select the members and click on “New Design Grp”
    Enter a name for the beam group and select a design brief

    5. Go to Mode > Design


    Then it shows the design summary. Initially it will show that all members are failing. This is
    because we have not designed the members yet.
    To design the members
    Go to Design > Design Now

    To see the Min R/F bars


    Concrete > Main Layout

    Prepared and Lectured by : Erwin Barthelot Page |3


    STAAD Pro

    Right click on the Main reinforcement window and select “Show Anchorage”

    To create CAD drawings


    Concrete > Drawing, Click OK and specify a location to save the file.

    This DXF file can be opened by AutoCAD.


    Then the drawing will look like the following:

    To see the detail design calculation:


    File > BS8110 Report Setup
    in the Items tab, select “Detail Design” and click the single arrow and OK it,.

    Next go to File > print preview, or print to see the report.

    Extract of the report is show below
