EX. Chinese Design Examples

The following models are included when STAAD.Pro is installed.

These files are located in the C:\Users\Public\Public Documents\STAAD.Pro CONNECT Edition\Samples\Sample Models\Chinese Steel Design\ folder (default location).

Table 1. Chinese steel design examples installed with the program
File name	Description
Plane Frame with Steel Design.STD	A space steel structure is designed per GB 50017-2017 code and some typical design parameters is added at the same time. Moreover, seismic load, wind load and load combination are auto generated per GB 50009-2012 and GB50011-2010. There are two files in this example: a STAAD.Pro input file (.STD) which contains geometry, property, support, and load data and a .GSP file which contains member design parameters used in the Chinese Steel Design workflow.
Analysis of a Frame Under Seismic Loads.STD	A plane frame is analyzed for seismic loads. The seismic loads are generated using the procedures of the GB50011-2010 code.
Generate Loads per Chinese code.STD	A space steel frame is analyzed in which the loads and load combination are generated by Chinese code. In this example, the wind load, response spectrum load and load combination are auto generated per GB 50012-2012 and GB 50011-2010.
Box Section Member Design.STD	A simply supported beam is designed per GB 50017-2017. This example demonstrates how to define and design the box section member in the Chinese Steel Design module. There are two files in this example: a STAAD.Pro input file (.STD) which contains geometry, property, support, and load data and a .GSP file which contains member design parameters used in the Chinese Steel Design workflow. This example also includes a drawing file of the general section used for import, Box section.dxf along with the imported user profile table, Bsection.upt.
