Hi all
How should I model metal sheeting roof in SAP2000? as shell elements? Please find attached an example of a simple portal frame model as well as the different options for area sections for your reference...
I have encountered an issue on the portal frame model on SAP2000 when I use diaphragm to compute the wind load automatically in different wind directions. The error is as below when run the analysis, stating that numerical problems unencountered during equation assembly. I have also attached the...

Hey guys,
i currently design a bridge deck with a non-composite I beam section (reinforced concrete slab rested on two steel beams with no fixed attachment)for simplcity using FEM. What will be the restraint of the connection between concrete and the top flange of steel if the deck is a...
Hey guys,
I would like to ask you how to model a concrete slab on two steel girders for a bridge in FEM software uaing grillage method ( i have GSA Oasys as software)? How to determine the section properties ( E, I, G and J) of the longitudinal elements representing the slabs and the steel...
