Tips and tricks in Robot

[Artur.Kosakowski]

I'm starting a new topic where we can share all the smart ideas for making a model faster, finding mistakes easier or design something that seemed impossible with others.

Let me start with the link to the Build Your Robot Structural Analysis IQ! - Tips and tricks in Robot webinar.

Hi there,

It appears that I'm unable to add X and Y direction nodal forces direction to Plate elements which have been used to model slabs/raft foundations (please see attached screenshot). Is there a tip or trick you can provide which would help solve this problem? I guess it would be used primarily to check that a foundation has adequate resistance to the sliding failure mechanism.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thank's so much!

Sorry to bother you once again - the horizontal forces I'm applying to the slab are representative of the horizontal reactions from the superstructure, which are applied to the top surface of the foundation. These would then, therefore, have an effect upon the bearing stresses beneath the foundation due to the moment created (Fx or Fy multipled by the depth of the foundation) - does the analysis take this into consideration? Or should this effect be accounted for by applying a concentrated moment in addition to the horizontal force?

Thank you.

Is possible to calculate Torsional Amplification factor (Ax ) by dynamic forces from (Response Spectrum Analysis) or need to make procedures to do it?

That's a great video Mustafa. How about cutting any arbitrary shape within the boundary of a curve wall(with specified dimensions).Pls. see attached.

it would be interesting a suggestion on how to verify a node of an RSA beam frame in a software like Inventor and Nastran ... as asked in another post .... two Autodesk software ... to have support in this from autodesk agents would be as much as less desirable

Hello, I have a series of doubts.

What benefits does ROBOT have besides the ease of interaction with REVIT compared to other analysis software such as MIDAS, SAP, ETABs?

Does the purchase of ROBOT also include something additional such as a license for REVIT or something that makes it more attractive economically?

Hi @halvarezg ,

Robot is a part of the AEC Collection and can not be purchased separately.

Be more productive by set layouts stored in history and activating them at any time.

Follow the steps below::

a. After set a layout that you need, go to the View menu (1) and History (2)

 b. Your last action will appear in the list of views and will be without a label (<No Label>), select this line (3), write a title of your choice (4), press enter key to confirm (5)

c. Repeat steps (3) to (5) ow many times you need.

d. Click the box to enable "Show only labeled views" (6) and you can now browse your custom layouts (7).

e. You can choose to leave this floating tab open, or if you close it, simply repeat steps (1) to (2).

f. To create new custom layouts, don't forget to disable step (6) and repeat steps (3) to (7).

That'a all!

CHANGE ORIENTARION EASILY (PRINTOUT COMPOSITION)

This trick that is taught in the Printout Composition Webinar. Very useful to change the orientation of any page.
