SAGRODS AND SAP2000
UmarMakhzumi reacted to Ayesha for a topic
You can model sag rod as bracing (Sag rod properties can be defined in a frame section and modelled as a brace) provided your design condition allows the sag rod to behave like a brace as I mentioned in the previous post. Once you model them, see the forces and design accordingly.1 point -
I think Uzair has replied to your question well. I was about to say the same thing for number 1 after checking my self. Try using a 4x4x1/2" or 3x3x3/4" as bracing. For top and bottom cord, go with a lightweight 8" section (like W200x36). Using 8" will allow you to do field bolts easily as 6" or less are tight for even 2 bolts. For L/r > 60, I am not sure what that is.1 point
