Release Notes: June 2024
Material Grade to Plate Material Thickness Combinations: max thickness updates
1. Update this question in the job prefs as follows:
When column axial load (Pr) is not provided in the Qnect UDA, or in the model, how would you like us to calculate Pr to check Panel Zone shear capacity? (Note: Calculating Pr or providing the column compressive load in the model rather than providing the specific column Pr in the Qnect UDA can cause conservative column web reinforcement or reduced connections)
2. Update functioning as follows:
a. In the Qnect beam UDA, after the field “Moment - Gravity LL Portion”, add a start and end field for “Moment - Column Pr”
b. Pr used In order of preference should be:
Pr value provided in Qnect beam UDA. If two sided moment connection and Pr opposite sides conflict, use Pr = max(Pr left, Pr right)
If #1 is blank, Pr provided from model for the column at this section. Pr = max (Nc start, Nc end)
If #1 and #2 are blank, Pr calculated by this preference response
