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 ...

Heavy loaded structures...

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...

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.

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

Dear All, I highly recommend to include calculation of seismic load using NBCC 2015. I see it as a big gap in Staad Pro not to include Seismic loading using NBCC 2015 Thanks a lot

When dealing with a substantial number of members within a STAAD model, the design parameters tend to split automatically. Consequently, this automatic splitting poses challenges when attempting to review the design parameters. The same situation ...

It would be nice to be able to apply wind loads on plate elements. Especially given that there is a wind load definition specifically for tanks, but no way to model that tank other than plate elements. The alternatives are a cumbersome to implemen...

Hi, Typically, to get end forces to design the connection for a certain beam size, a group is created and the bounding beam forces for the group are extracted using the "Beam Results - Beam Forces - Summary table" using the "Results Setup - Range ...
