BACKGROUND
QC Comment from Client on a Project to consider Mxy
Objective of the study was the understand the impact of Mxy on the
designs as they stand currently and establish a way forward
Hence it is required to create a platform wherein the design can
accommodate Mxy as well, subject to constraints of time and effort.

SPREADSHEET WORKFLOW:
The Spreadsheet takes the STAAD Forces Data, Node and
Plate Geometry data as input

SPREADSHEET RESULTS:
The results of the spreadsheet should be easily usable to the Design Engineer,
with constrains of time for quick design and decisions , and also lend
themselves to quick interpretation of the effects of Mxy.
EXCEL SPREADSHEET
Hence an index was used which stands for the ratio of the Wood Armer
Moment at a plate element, in X/Y direction , divided by the maximum NonWood Armer moment encountered ANYWHERE in the panel.
This enables us to think in the following way If the index is X at a plate, then
the actual design moment including Wood Armer is X times the STAAD
summary moment corresponding to that face.
If X>1.03, it is displayed in RED in the plot, liable for further corrective action
