All tapered section name shows as a tapered . its very useful if staad pro show the tapered section show the section in the display- Tapered I- 300x6+200x8+150x8 if its uniform web depth Tapered I- (300-750)x6+200x8+150x8 if its tapered web depth ...

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...

I think the wind load application should be rewritten to make it simpler and more user friendly. STAAD is at least three times as long as SAP2000 when inputting wind loads.

Grid lines are already included when using Auto Drafter. That idea could be very useful in GUI.

For Blast loads in some cases we have to apply blast load in all the direction i.e x and z in different load cases. presently the time history load is possible only in one load case. Time history should be allowed to be added in mutiple load cases

The ability to apply horizontal moving loads that move in the vertical direction (up a column) (e.g. elevator loads on a column).

It is new code introduced by IS Commitee for Steel Design. Those engineers working on STEEL Design across any industry will have to use all codal provisions suggested by IS8168. Accordingly STAAD Pro has to be upgraded.

Set parameters and have the program create a plate mesh automatically for finite element analysis.

request to add a future to split/divide a plate element in physical modeler by using a reference line
