  Sap2000 Multiple Selection of Objects Tool
Posted by: LiviuM - 03-27-2011, 04:47 PM - Forum: Engineering Spreadsheet - No Replies

Sap2000 Multiple Selection Tool

[Image: info.png]
This excel worksheet contains macro (visual basic script) to connect to sap2000 V11, V12, V14 API and select a list of elements.
Because sap interface allows the selection of a single item this worksheet is useful to select multiple items.
Elements frame, joints, shells.
Warning the worksheet keeps previous selection, sap interface will update after a zoom/pan action.

For those trying to develop tools for Sap API read SAP2000_API_Documentation.chm located in sap instalation folder next to sap2000.exe. And you can start with this worksheet.

First steps, have to be done only once:
1) Open this worksheet in excel
2) Add reference to sap2000.exe. (Follow the steps as shown in pictures inside excel document).
3) Save the worksheet.
4) Repeat first step for every version of Sap you have installed, and save a copy of the worksheet accordingly.

How to use, after first steps:
1) Open worksheet in excel. (If in windows Vista, 7 with UAC enabled, read below Note).
2) Paste the list of labels in the first column (A:A)
3) Click button according to the object type.
4) Repeat from step 2 as much as you like.

Warning if there is more than one sap2000 open, the worksheet will work only with one of the instances, usually the first instance, sometimes at random.

Note: For those with Vista or Windows 7, with UAC enabled, you must run Excel and Sap2000 as administrator.
In order to do that browse to:
Windows x86
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office..\excel.exe
Windows x64
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office..\excel.exe
create a shortcut on desktop, right click on the shortcut->properties->compatibility, check [ ]Run this as administrator.
Each time you what to use the worksheet open excel with that shortcut, then open the worksheet.

If you encounter automation error it's because:
- The reference to sap2000.exe is wrong
- Sap2000 or Excel are have no administrator rights
- You don't have license for sap2000.

Sap2000 Selection.xls

  Seismic response of a steel liquid storage tanks
Posted by: Apache - 03-27-2011, 03:45 PM - Forum: Journals, Papers and Presentations - No Replies

Seismic response of a steel liquid storage tanks

[Image: 22492800978455131327.jpg]

[Image: info.png]
In this paper, the effectiveness of the base isolation on steel storage tanks has been investigated through
numerical models and then checked by shaking table tests on a reduced scale (1:14) model of a real
steel tank, typically used in petrochemical plants. In the experimental campaign the floating roof has also
been taken into account. The tests have been performed on the physical model both in fixed and isolated
base configurations; in particular two alternative base isolation systems have been used: high-damping
rubber bearings devices and sliding isolators with elasto-plastic dampers. Finally, a comparison between
experimental and numerical results has also been performed.

  Effective Project Management - Traditional, Adaptive, Extreme - 3rd Ed.
Posted by: Dell_Brett - 03-27-2011, 01:47 PM - Forum: Project Management - Replies (1)


Effective Project Management - Traditional, Adaptive, Extreme - 3rd Ed.

Author: Robert K. Wysocki and Rudd McGary | Size: 7,6 MB | Format: CHM | Publisher: John Wiley & Sons | Year: 2003 | pages: 504 | ISBN: 0471432210

[Image: 48004799981715568901.png]


[Image: info.png]

In previous editions, this book has established itself as the definitive guide to effective project management. Now, with this major revision, it’s updated to reflect significant changes in project management practices over the last few years. Written again by Robert K. Wysocki and a new coauthor, Rudd McGary, this book covers traditional methods of project management as well as adaptive and extreme approaches. Unlike other project management books that simply give abstract advice, this timely book mentors you though a series of real-world exercises and adheres to the Project Management Institute’s (PMI) Body of Knowledge, 2000 Edition.

Effective Project Management is packed with thought-provoking discussion questions related to the chapter materials and case study as well as an abundance of exercises. The material covers:

- Traditional project management, including risk assessment and control
- Generating, building, and representing the Work Breakdown Structure
- Estimating duration, resource requirements, and cost
- Constructing and analyzing the project network diagram
- Organizing and conducting the Joint Project Planning session
- Recruiting and managing a project team
- Adaptive Project Framework, Extreme Project Management, and their core values
- Project portfolio management, including prioritizing projects.

The book consists of three parts organized into 21 chapters, an epilogue, and two appendices. We have followed the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK) standards advocated by the Project Management Institute (PMI). As far as we are able to tell, what we have done is entirely compatible with PMBOK in the sense that we have described approaches that do not contradict PMBOK. Once you have completed this book, you will have covered all nine knowledge areas of the PMBOK. PMI has recommended our book as one that every project manager should have in his or her library.

  Design of beam-to-column joints under seismic-induced fire
Posted by: Apache - 03-27-2011, 01:45 PM - Forum: Journals, Papers and Presentations - No Replies

Design of beam-to-column joints under seismic-induced fire

[Image: 82425752143591154896.jpg]

[Image: info.png]
In this paper, a multi-objective advanced design methodology is proposed for steel-concrete
composite moment-resisting frames. The research activity mainly focused on the design of
beam-to-column joints under seismic-induced fire loading together with the definition of
adequate structural details for composite columns. Thermal analyses of cross sections were
performed in order to obtain internal temperature distribution; structural analyses were then
carried out on the whole frame to assess the global behavior under the combined action of
static and fire loadings. Furthermore, results of numerical analyses were used in order to derive
information about the mechanical and numerical behavior of joints. In this paper the
experimental program carried out on four beam-to-column joint specimens under seismic
loading is described and results are presented and discussed together with the outcomes of
numerical simulations owing to seismic and fire actions. Experimental tests demonstrated the
adequacy of the seismic design. Numerical simulations showed a satisfactory performance of
joints under seismic-induced fire loading.

Infrastructure: Rebuilding, Repairing and Restructing

[Image: 42828248224565159606.jpg]

[Image: info.png]
By: Jason R. Baren
Hardcover: 122 pages
Publisher: Nova Science Publishers Inc (1 Jan 2009)
Language English
ISBN-10: 1606923560
ISBN-13: 9781606923566

Product Description:
There are various definitions of what constitutes infrastructure, but generally infrastructure refers to the large-scale public systems, services, and facilities of a country or region that are necessary for economic activity. The sector tends to be separated into two broad subsets - economic and social. Economic infrastructure includes highways, water and sewerage facilities, and energy distribution and telecommunication networks whereas social infrastructure encompasses schools, universities, hospitals, public housing and prisons. Infrastructure assets are generally characterised by high development costs (high barriers to entry) and long lives. They are generally managed and financed on a long-term basis. Historically it was seen as the role of the government to fund and manage these assets for the good of the population. Today, the role of the government as the provider of public services is increasingly being questioned both in terms of the absolute cost to taxpayers and as to whether a government can deliver the assets as efficiently as a private company competing for the privilege. From the government's perspective there is a strong case for privatisation, where the debt raised by the private partner remains on their balance sheets, not on that of the Treasury's. These factors have resulted in a gradual migration from the public provision of infrastructure to the private sector. The private provision of these assets may take many forms from joint ventures, concessions and franchises through to straight delivery contracts. Essentially the private sector is being brought in to design, build, finance and/or maintain public sector assets in return for long term contracted payments from the government or access to the revenues generated from the asset.
