The multistoried steel structure is nowadays popular due to its quick installation project. Reduce the time of construction and increase the productivity of the industry. Fabricating all the structural components like columns, beams, and bracing all could be connected through bolts in the field. But how to design multi storied steel structure?
To complete the Structural design of a multistoried steel structure you need to use any 3D structural modeling software like Staad Pro or any other. In this video tutorial series, I have used Staad Pro for a complete design of the structure.
The steel structure is mostly used for industrial purposes where quick construction is important. It also used in residential projects but a little bit less than an industrial projects.
What is this Video Tutorial?
This is a complete video tutorial series on how to design multi storied steel structure, analysis, and design. I have shown from start to finish how to complete structural analysis and design using Staad Pro software completely free.
All types of load like DL, LL, wind, and earthquake have been applied in the model. If you do not have this program you can download it from here for free.

Why use Staad Pro Software?
Staad Pro is a much-known structural analysis and design software across the world. Civil Engineers use this software to perform 3D analysis and design for any kind of low and high-rise structure.
Especially in some countries, Staad Pro is used to perform steel structure analysis and design. Personally, I am using this program to perform any kind of steel structure analysis and design.
However, it is not necessary to use this software to complete the design of any steel structure. But here I have used Staad Pro, if you are interested in his software then you can watch videos.
What is the design code used for this design tutorial?
There is a lot of design code to design any structure in a different country. I have used here my local code which is similar to UBC. All the load was applied to this structure as per the UBC requirement.
Wind, earthquake, Dead, and Live load have been calculated and applied as per the requirement of the UBC design code.

You have to calculate the load as per your local code requirement. Here is the procedure for doing any complete project using any code. Using this procedure you can do any kind of structure as per any code.
What will I learn from this series after watching all the videos?
After watching all the videos on this series you will be able to perform multistoried steel structure analysis and design using Staad Pro software. I have shown step by step how to complete 3D modeling define load, assign various loads including later load, and finally perform analysis and design.
If you watch all the videos of this series hope you will be able to work with this software. This video series is for a multistoried structure. You can also learn industrial steel shed design here and Steel truss roof design here.
If you are interested in learning Staad Pro software then you can watch this video series about how to design multi storied steel structure? If you know nothing about this software you can start from this video. I have shown everything from the beginning. It has covered beginner to advanced levels of learning.
There are a total of 9 videos in this post. Watch all the videos and learn this software completely. There is also another video tutorial series on multistoried concrete structure analysis and design, you can find that here.
