RISAConnection Version 12 now supports skewed shear tab connections. With this enhancement, engineers have the option to skew a wide flange, a tapered wide flange or a channel beam with the following supporting members:
RISA-3D can be used to model the effects of rotating machinery on their support structures. In the model below, we have a structure which is to support a piece of rotating machinery.
A question that we are asked from time to time in technical support is “why is my required force higher than what is reported in my force diagrams”. For instance, in the detail report below we can see that the maximum moment about the member’s weak axis is 28.9 k-ft. However, the required weak axis...
