Im trying to model a small steel bridge construction (3D) in STAAD.Pro.

The structure consists of girders HE500B (main beams) and cross beams HE100B
(secondary beams) which are 120 cm (0.12 m) over CG of girders.
I know that MEMBER OFFSET will do the job, but the problem is that I get different results
for Support Reactions (Force Fz) when I apply MEMBER OFFSET on girders or cross beams!

I obviously miss out something.


Attached please find a dxf file that shows the cross section of the bridge and also 2 separate input files.
Model-1: MEMBER OFFSET applied on girders.
Model-2: MEMBER OFFSET applied on cross sections.
Which one will be correct?

MEMBER OFFSET is the distance between CG of girders and cross beams?


Ill appreciate if any of you experienced friends could help me out.

Best regards
Bill
