Title
|
Enter a unique name to use for a new material. The
drop-down list provides the predefined materials available in
STAAD.Pro.

Material Properties
|
Define each of the material properties for the
local X and Y directions:
-
Young's Modulus (E) – modulus of
elasticity
-
Thermal Coefficient (a)
The general properties are not orthotropic:
-
Density
-
Critical Damping
-
Poisson's Ratio (ν)
The
Shear Modulus (G) property is defined as
follows:
- Gxy – in-plane
shear
- Gyz – shear
transverse to the local yz plane
- Gxz – shear
transverse to the local xz plane
