ADINA Export dialog

Used to specify the structure orientation of a STAAD.Pro exported to an ADINA input file (*.in).

Opens when the ADINA tool is selected from the Import / Export page on the Backstage.

The options for exporting the STAAD input file to an ADINA input file are:

設定	説明
Structure Convention	Select the global axis convention to use in the resulting ADINA IN file: No Change The values of coordinates and section properties are exported in exactly the same axes as they are defined in the STAAD.Pro model for both Y and Z Up models. A STAAD.Pro Y Up model would typically appear rotated in ADINA. However, a STAAD.Pro model defined with the SET Z UP command would display in the same orientation. Y Up The values of the vertical axis of the STAAD.Pro model will be mapped to the ADINA Y axis. Models defined as Y up or Z up in STAAD.Pro will be displayed as rotated in ADINA. Z Up (default) The values of the vertical axis in the STAAD.Pro model will be mapped to the ADINA Z axis. Models defined as Y up or Z up in STAAD.Pro will be displayed in the same vertical orientation in ADINA.

Structure Convention

Select the global axis convention to use in the resulting ADINA IN file:

No Change

A STAAD.Pro Y Up model would typically appear rotated in ADINA. However, a STAAD.Pro model defined with the SET Z UP command would display in the same orientation.
Y Up
The values of the vertical axis of the STAAD.Pro model will be mapped to the ADINA Y axis. Models defined as Y up or Z up in STAAD.Pro will be displayed as rotated in ADINA.
Z Up (default)
The values of the vertical axis in the STAAD.Pro model will be mapped to the ADINA Z axis. Models defined as Y up or Z up in STAAD.Pro will be displayed in the same vertical orientation in ADINA.

Limitations

The export to ADINA IN files does not include the following model objects:

tension-only or compression-only spring supports
tension-only or compression-only member specifications
multilinear spring supports
cable specifications on members
tapered members: these members are exported but ADINA uses a prismatic profile the entire member length instead of a taper
plate offsets and releases

注記: Only materials which are assigned to members or elements are exported. Additionally, a warning message is given if there are any members or elements which do not have a material assigned.
