Hello, There’s no point in applying the notional load against other lateral loads. In STAAD, it’s possible that the Load Combination where automatically generated so the notional loads are generated for all directions even if they countermeasure t...

There are several methods to model shear wall/slab/mat in staad CE, broadly by physical modeller and analytical modeller, as far as the analytical method is considered, slab/mat/shear wall can be modelled through various techniques, like plate ele...

dear staad pro team,i think more important things for shar wall system building for high rise building is property modifires for wall,it is misssing in staad pro i dont know why?all softwares have this important feature why is missing in staad?

The STAAD.Pro now can not check the the vertical structural irregularities 5a/5b in the ASCE 7 table 12.3-2 by ant command stream, but as the code demand, the designer need check this irregularities, it is very difficult and cost time for designer...

It would be good to get a function in OpenSTAAD function to get the CoG of the Model.

It is suggested to add I sections with side plates table under specifications user table manager tabs. Offshore brownfiled modificaitons work would involve adding side plates to existing I sections to increase its capacity.

It would be helpfull if modeled floor slab analysed in STAAD.Pro to be imported in RCDC for designing

Staad foundation advance (SFA) has an option to assign plates of various thickness, but it should also have an option to model such plates in TRAPEZOIDAL PATTERN as shown in below images,which is frequently used to model raft foundation, also plac...

When the basement shear wall is modelled along with intermediate columns as shown in image, and such columns supposed to designed in RCDC , then RCDC devides the length of columns into small length/small segments as per meshing of adjacent shear w...
