14) Example problem No. 14 - A space frame is analyzed for seismic loads. The seismic loads are generated

using the procedures of the 1994 UBC Code. A P-Delta analysis is peformed to obtain the secondary effects

of the lateral and vertical loads acting simultaneously.

15) Example problem No. 15 - A space frame is analyzed for loads generated using the built-in wind and floor

load generation facilities.

16) Example problem No. 16 - Dynamic Analysis (Time History) is performed for a 3 span beam with

concentrated and distributed masses. The structure is subjected to "forcing function" and "ground motion"

loading. The maxima of the joint displacements, member end forces and support reactions are determined.

17) Example problem No. 17 - The usage of User Provided Steel Tables is illustrated in this example for the

analysis and design of a plane frame.

18) Example problem No. 18 - This is an example which demonstrates the calculation of principal stresses on a

finite element.

19) Example problem No. 19 - This example demonstrates the usage of inclined supports. The word

INCLINED refers to the fact that the restraints at a joint where such a support is specified are along a user-

specified axis system instead of along the default directions of the global axis system. STAAD offers a few

different methods for assigning inclined supports, and we examine those in this example.

20) Example problem No. 20 - This example generates the geometry of a cylindrical tank structure using the

cylindrical coordinate system.

21) Example problem No. 21 - This example illustrates the modeling of tension-only members using the

MEMBER TENSION command.
