Description see the file' Objectives : 1) To be able to idealize and analyze any structure using fundamental principles of structural design. 2) To understand the basic approach in the analysis and design by using STAADpro Project Description: Modeling: The project will involve doing the following mandatory procedures: Create a model of a seven-story steel frame building in STAAD Pro. The plan of building has a regular beam and column arrangement through 7 stories. Story heights are as follows – first two stories are 15 ft, next 2 stories are 12 ft and the top 3 stories are 10 ft. The small squares indicate column locations. The columns are identified by the lines A – F and 1 – 6. Thus the column shown shaded would be identified as column C-1 and shaded area between C3, D3, C4 and D4 is open area. Modeling structure includes: (nodes, beams and columns) using STAAD pro; input all primary load cases and LRFD load combinations. Analyze the structure and prepare table of member forces in frame members. All members of the frame - Beams and Columns - are W-sections
