Just as the title. To be able to analyze a structure with Tension-Only members using the Direct Analysis Method.

For Inclusion of built up section in standard I section combination with Channel section on top flange, which is widely used for gantry girder.

Provide the ability to have horizontal moving loads in addition to the vertical loads. For example, ASCE 7 requires cranes to be designed for vertical loads and horizontal loads. It would be great if STAAD had the ability to have both the vertical...

Currently the only way to check the deflection of a slab is to review the deflected shape of the shells' mesh, or in the tabulated results. It would be very useful if the contour plots for shells included the option to contour deflections as well ...

Steel Auto-Drafter draws member releases with a 20mm offset by default. The user would like to set this offset distance to an arbitrary distance. Additionally, the user would like to set separate distances for each of the following members: ...

I consider that the way of using openstaad with VBA is somewhat tedious due to the characteristics of that programming language, therefore, my idea is to propose an openstaad repository but focused on python, which, in my opinion, would facilitate...

STAADpro is not able to design cold form section outside the standard library or any user defined cold form section as per IS801. This is severe limitation as many users are using sections of their choice which are not in the library. This is espe...

At present design of double channel in STAAD as per IS800 LSD is having certain work flow. It assumes higher MI as a major axis even if it can be about minor axis Y which is not correct. STAAD should consider section orientation as provided by use...

In most of the industrial sheds, double I section spaced apart is used as crane column and single I section is used to support the roof above. In present STAADpro ver 24 facility to design double I section as per IS800 LSD is not available . This ...

Extend the current tapered tube definition to allow for the specification and analysis of tapered rectangular tube profiles (i..e where the length of the two side dimensions differs). Currently STAAD.Pro supports the definition and analysis of tap...
