Currently, the only way to use STAAD.pro fireproofing specification is thru the Analytical Modeler. If you have a physical model, you have to break the connection and then edit the Input file to remove the "DO NOT EDIT" restrictions so that you ca...

I believe there is no option or command to directly view RC members that have failed, similar to that of "Utility" option available for checking failure of steel members. Failure of RC members must be manually checked from the "Analysis Output" op...

The "actual ratio" button in postprocessing mode is not working for a lot of users in Subsea7. This button is supposed to re-arrange beam utilizations from default beam number order, to utilization ascending order, and is very helpful. The problem...

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?

Mesh size in FEM in staad is yet controversial topics, as different trials for different mesh size gives very diverse and biased result, Hence perfect mesh size for more accurate plate result needs to incorporate.
