Robot Structural Analysis Professional 2014 Key

Robot Structural Analysis Professional is structural load analysis software that verifies code compliance and uses BIM-integrated workflows to exchange data with Revit. It can help you to create more resilient, constructible designs that are accurate, coordinated, and connected to BIM.
Welcome to the Robot Structural Analysis Quick Start Guide, a resource for newcomers and users looking to brush up on basic skills for both structural steel and reinforced concrete models. This guide shows how to develop a basic design workflow, starting with modeling and moving through analysis, design, and documentation creation.
Migrating to a new software, even when we are somehow used to work with one already, could be quite challenging, specially for a so complex and delicate subject such as the analysis of structures. As there is so many questions in matter of what the software could or not do, or even if using it in the first place is just a mistake.
Sometimes this may be so distressing that will prevent many professional from looking for better more innovative and powerful tools, as they may feel safer using old fashion applications or even methods that kinda do the job.
But believing that in the always changing world of technology and software nothing ever gets better or improved...that is the biggest mistake. Talking specifically about structural analysis software, there have been many improvements, as software has become more powerful, flexible, precise and efficient.
One of these software is Autodesk Robot Structural Analysis Professional, which while being relatively new in the game of structural engineering and analysis, have surpassed many of the already known and somehow typical programs such as CSI SAP2000 or STAAD.Pro.
However and in comparison with to those two, it has been not so widely used across companies and professionals, since the above described dynamic is always in place.
So for those still undecided on moving to Autodesk RSA, or just need to have better understanding of the program before making an important decision, we would like to offer a quick description of the main steps that will lead us to perform the analysis of a simple structure in Autodesk RSA.
For getting an overview of an analysis in Autodesk RSA, let's approach the simple but yet typical case of a reinforced concrete frame integrated by just two columns and a beam.
This particular frame, and besides being affected by its dead load, should bear both a live load uniformly distributed and a punctual load on either side.
It's what we could call a simple chalkboard example.
Within Robot we simply generate the Analytical Model, specifying the columns as 30x30cm sections, separated at 5m and the beams in two levels at 3m height from each other and defined as 20x30cm sections.
So far this is just a 2D Drawing to a which we will assign a couple of fixed supports.
If at this point we run the Static Analysis of this simple model, the program will automatically determine the dead load of the structure, giving us as well the reactions on the supports.
Until now we have nothing to complicated. So let's try to assign a live load. Let's say of 3kN/m. Namely, 300kg. The program will do this at ease and even applying a punctual load it is something that any structural analysis software can perform.
We could even obtain a combination from these loads and obtain the corresponding shear and bending moment diagrams.
In any case, all this has taken just a few seconds of our time. Even requesting the deformation graphs or assigning lateral loads is matter of just a couple clicks. The program will give us the values for displacements and deformations and obviously, exaggerate these results by using a scale factor so we can take easier note of them.
Nowadays, programs used in construction work are important in drawing and design. Several options are available. Design programs are two- and three-dimensional structural analysis and design programs which can analyze large and complex structures accurately and rapidly. Moreover, a design software can design various types of building structures and constructions. A video media of software tutorial was created to make teaching and learning more efficient and to easily understand how to use the program for accurate calculation, analysis and design by using the Autodesk Robot Structural Analysis Professional program. A steel structure warehouse with a dimension of 30 x 60 meters was chosen as an example in this study. The instructional media was produced to demonstrate the use of Robot Structural Analysis Professional software in analysis and design of the selected warehouse step by step. The instructional media was evaluated the effectiveness of the content by five experts. The revised instructional media according to the comments of the experts was tested by 34 students via pretest and posttest. The result was found that analysis for efficiency in production technical is in a very good level. Analysis for content performance is in a good level. Production technical satisfaction analysis is in a good level. The average score of content satisfaction analysis, test results, users, and media usage before studying was 8.176, and after studying was 14.294. The score after studying was statistically significant more than before studying at 0.05.
