GT STRUDL
Design Prerelease Features
Example:
PARAMETER
GRPLOAD 1
LOADS 20 TO 30
Only the load identified as 1 for parameter GRPLOAD will be used for automatic
classification. All members for LOADS 20 to 30 each will be assigned the same
classification as assigned for load 1. Note that load 1 must also be identified in the LOAD
portion of the automatic classification options.
When the automatic classification is used, the chords and braces can be listed by
GTSTRUDL by specifying the LIST CHORDS option. The chord output is similar to the
explicit identification for chords and braces. For example, referring to the Figure 4.3.1-3,
for joint 50, the GTSTRUDL output listing the chords is as follows:
CHORD 1 JOINT 50
BRACE 2 LOAD 1 GEOMETRY 'K' OVERLAP 6.62
BRACE 3 LOAD 1 GEOMETRY PART 'K' 0.6 'T'
OVERLAP 6.62
BRACE 4 LOAD 1 GEOMETRY PART 'K' 0.3 'CROSS' OVERLAP 6.62
BRACE 5 LOAD 1 GEOMETRY 'K' OVERLAP 4.37
BRACE 6 LOAD 1 GEOMETRY 'K' OVERLAP 5.18
BRACE 7 LOAD 1 GEOMETRY PART 'K' 0.5 'CROSS' 0.34 'Y' OVERLAP 5.18
BRACE 8 LOAD 1 GEOMETRY 'K' OVERLAP 4.37
CHORD 9 JOINT 50
BRACE 2 LOAD 1 GEOMETRY 'K' OVERLAP 6.62
BRACE 3 LOAD 1 GEOMETRY PART 'K' 0.6 'T'
OVERLAP 6.62
BRACE 4 LOAD 1 GEOMETRY PART 'K' 0.3 'CROSS' OVERLAP 6.62
BRACE 5 LOAD 1 GEOMETRY 'K' OVERLAP 4.37
BRACE 6 LOAD 1 GEOMETRY 'K' OVERLAP 5.18
BRACE 7 LOAD 1 GEOMETRY PART 'K' 0.5 'CROSS' 0.34 'Y' OVERLAP 5.18
BRACE 8 LOAD 1 GEOMETRY 'K' OVERLAP 4.37
