What's New GSA 8.7?• New Steel Design Codes
• New RC slab design codes
• New Footfall Analysis Codes — BS 6841:1987; BS 6472-1 - 2008; User defined frequency weighting curve.
• Non-linear Shell Elements
• Assemblies and Assembly Results
• Modal and Seismic Analysis Improvements
• New Mesh Generation Engine — quicker processing, producing smaller and better conditioned meshes.
• Curved Members
• Faster processing — including faster grid load expansion, faster response spectrum analysis, faster post processing, and faster RC Slab calculations.
• New GsRevit Functionality — improved coordination, improved section mapping and Revit 2014 compatibility.
• Patterned Load — a set of tools for the analysis of generalised patterned floor loading.

Please release me…• Restraints
• All nodes are free to move, though controlled by the attached elements, unless they are restrained in some way
• Typical use – support points
• Rigid Constraints• Rigid Constraints / Links / Joints
Means for adding infinite stiffness between nodes without problems in the stiffness matrix
• Typical use – floor diaphragms
• Releases• All elements are fully fixed to the nodes and hence other
elements, unless they are released in some way• Typical use – beam connections

What a difference that shear makes

What a difference that shear makes
• Giving a property a zero stiffness will lead to instability in the matrix
• Except zero shear stiffness, as this switches of shear deflection…

FEA is not CAD

FEA is not CAD• The main purpose of CAD is to represent the physical
requirements of the structure and communicate it to others
• The main purpose of FEA is to mathematically predict the physical behaviour of the structure and to facilitate the design of the elements
Do you really need the offsets…?
