Tutorial
Getting Started
STAAD Advanced Concrete Design is performed using the STAAD RCDC application, which is installed separately
from STAAD.Pro. This program can be launched from the STAAD.Pro Building Designer mode or as a standalone
application.
STAAD RCDC is a highly automated design tool for concrete building structures. This tutorial guides you through
the process of designing the elements in a concrete building. It will also indicate where to change the design
settings to customize design and detailing to meet the requirements of your project or organization.
1.1 Tutorial File

This tutorial uses example files that are installed with STAAD.Pro V8i. However, you will be making changes to
this example file so you may wish to make a backup copy to preserve the example as installed with STAAD.Pro. A
copy of the original input file is also included as Appendix A (on page 37) of this tutorial.
1.2 Starting in STAAD.Pro

This example includes a fully modeled concrete structure, including loads. The modeling and application of loads
per a building code specification are outside the scope of this tutorial. Refer to the STAAD.Prohelp contents for
additional information.
Note: STAAD Building Planner requires an additional license. You can activate this license in the Start Page
License Configuration panel.
Using STAAD RCDC as a Standalone Application

You can also use STAAD RCDC as a standalone application for concrete design. You will still need to have a
analytical model created in STAAD.Pro for the basis of the physical model as well as for analytical results.
Design and detailing of foundation elements such as footings and pilecaps must be performed by starting STAAD
RCDC as a standalone application and creating a project associted with an analytical model.
Tutorial
Getting Started
To open the model and generate analysis
1.3 To open the model and generate analysis

Tip: It is recommended that you first make a backup copy of all files with the name Sample1 in the
\STAAD\Examp\Building Planner\ folder.
1. Open the STAAD input file \STAAD\Examp\Building Planner\Sample1.std.
Note: This can be found in the STAAD.Pro installation folder, which is typically C:\SPro V8i\.
Tip: If you have a CONNECTED Project you want to associate with this input file, you can do so. This is not
necessary, though, for this tutorial.
2. (Optional) On the Setup | Job page, add job information:
type Tutorial in the Job field
type your organization's name in the Client field
type your initials in the Engineer field
3. Either:
select Analyze > Run Analysis
or
press <Ctrl+F5>
The analysis is performed.
4. Select the Stay in Modeling Mode option and click Done.
5. Either:
select the Building Planner tab in the mode bar
or
select Mode > Building Planner
6. Select the Frame | Design page.
Optionally you could model a complete building using the tools included in the Building Planner. But the
single floor in this example are all that is necessary for this tutorial.

1.4 To create a building model from floor plan

In order to demonstrate column design in STAAD RCDC, you will use the Building Planner model rapidly model a
building from a single floor plan.
1. Select the Frame | Geometry page.
2. Click Edit in the Level Details dialog.
The Level Information dialog opens
3. Type 6 (m) in the Height cell for row No 0-1 and press <Enter>.
4. Click Add Level and then click Yes in the confirmation dialog.
A new row is added representing a new level.
5. Select Plan1 from the Plan drop-down list for the second level.
Leave the default heights and other values for this level.
6. Click OK.
7. In the Level Details dialog, click Generate Model and then click Yes to confirm you want to update the
STAAD input model..
The Space Frame File Generation dialog opens.

8. Click Generate.
For this tutorial, you will use the default settings, load settings, and building type. Refer to the STAAD.Pro
User Interface help for details on these settings.
The new input file is generated and opened.
9. Either:
select Analyze > Run Analysis
or
press <Ctrl+F5>
The analysis is performed.
10. Select the Stay in Modeling Mode option and click Done.
1.5 To add a shear wall

To add a shear wall along one side of the elevators, do the following.
For the purpose of this tutorial, you will only add a single shear wall. In a typical building, other shear walls
would be present.
1. In the Building Planner mode, select the Frame | Shear Wall page.
2. In the Shear Wall Details dialog, click Edit.
3. Click on column C31 and then on C32.
Tutorial
Getting Started
To add a shear wall
The Define Shear Wall dialog opens.
4. Click OK.
For this tutorial, use the default thickness. The shear wall is added on both levels using this plan by default.
You have now finished all the necessary modifications to this example for this tutorial. The next sections cover
the design and detailing of structural elements using STAAD RCDC.
Tutorial
Slab Design
This section of the tutorial demonstrates how to design and detail a slab, including openings and stairs.
Slab continuity is based on edge conditions where are automatically determined by the program. You can
manually change the end conditions of a slab. You can also change a slab to a cutout, raised slab, or depressed
slab which also affect the edge conditions.
Slab properties are imported from the analysis model where specified. The program will evaluate missing
properties (e.g., slab thickness) during design when not specified.
2.1 To start the slab design

Tip: When you import STAAD.Pro model data into STAAD RCDC, grids are automatically detected and assigned.
You can manually edit both the exact locations of grids as well as grid labels in STAAD RCDC for drawing
generation.
1. In the top-right dialog, select Level :1 from the drop-down list and then click Design Slab.
STAAD RCDC opens and the New Project dialog opens.

2. Enter the project data:
Tutorial
Slab Design
To start the slab design
a. Type Tutorial in the Project field.

b. (Optional) Type Client and Engineer name.
This information is used as the header for all reports. It will be automatically imported from the
STAAD.Pro input file Job Information block if available.
c. Select EN 02 - 2004 from the Design Code drop-down list.
This tutorial uses the Eurocode. However, you can select any available code. Just note that some design
settings and features may vary based on the code selection made here.
The slab edges are automatically detected and continuity is established.

Note: Leave the Permissible Crack Width as the default value and leave the Perform Check option in the
Initial Thermal Cracking group unchecked for this tutorial.
8. Click OK.
2.2 To specify elevator openings

Since the analysis model does not contain openings in the slab, you can add those in STAAD RCDC.
Note: STAAD RCDC can design and detail concrete stairs with the slab. Do not create an opening for the stairs if
you plan to use this feature. Refer to the STAAD RCDC help topic Slab > Staircase Section for details on this
feature.
1. In the Design Data table, select row 19 (for Slab 18).
The slab is highlighted in the Slab Layout view window.
2. Do either of the following:
select True in the Is Cut Out cell for this row in the table
or
right-click on the slab in the view window and select True from the Is Cut Out drop-down in the pop-up
menu

To perform the design
The slab is now marked as a cutout.

3. Select Modify > Re-evaluate Slab continuity.
Note: This will change the continuity of surrounding slabs. If you do not perform this step, you will be
prompted to automatically re-evaluate the continuity before performing an autodesign.
2.3 To perform the design

Slabs in STAAD RCDC are designed for the Imposed Load and Live Load values input for each slab on the
Design Data table. These values are imported (along with thickness, etc.) from the slab parameters specified in
STAAD.Pro Building Planner mode.
1. Either:
select the Autodesign tool
or
select Design > Autodesign.
A message dialog opens confirming you want to proceed since the continuity must be reevaluated if you have
not already done so.

Tutorial
Beam Design
This section of the tutorial demonstrates how to design and detail continuous concrete beams.
STAAD RCDC will automatically look for continuous beam members in the STAAD model and group these as a
single physical beam. This way if you have a beam which continuous through columns or one which was subdivided into STAAD.Pro to facilitate support of a transverse member, it will be designed as a single beam entity
in STAAD RCDC.
In this example, you will use most of the default values for all designs.
