There should be a way to convert STAAD model to 3D pdf. It will become easy for designers to hover over the model and get clear view of the geometry while modelling in 3D softwares. Inspite of inputs provided, they will have access to 3D pdf where...

Kindly add the back-to-back properties of Lysaght C section (combinedly it becomes I- section) ,it is widely used in cold form structures.

There is currently no efficient way to consider the live load reduction factor in STAAD.Pro. It would be fantastic to add a parameter to the design section (e.g., under CSA S16-19 or AISC 360-16) to consider a live load reduction on an element by ...

STAAD does not have NZS 1170.5 in its Seismic Codes. Users in ANZ uses custom spectrum and factored it up to match the base shear. Adding this code will help the users in ANZ work directly with the NZ code and thus speed up their productivity. Use...

Spring supports are created only in a particular direction. For e.g. base/soil springs. negative displacement is considered as compression. what if a steel base plate is to be modelled below a concrete slab. There is no way to create a compression...

Heavy loaded structures...

Please add the ability to automatically generate wind loading to eurocodes.

STAAD does not consider the additional width of the fireproofed members; producing underestimated wind generated loads for open structures like piperacks. Please include this feature as this would make several of my colleagues happy.
