While doing design of beam using Staad file interface at each level selected beams need to be design as per Staad design envelope. 1) Along X-direction grid design will be one envelope. 2) Along Z-direction grid design will be second envelope. 3) ...

For the structures like Metro railway station and Industrial buildings, Clients are demanding to perform the long-term deflection check of the beam. RCDC should allow to perform the long-term deflection check for the beams selected by the user. Ge...

There should be a feature in RCDC whereby you can group selected footing for combine footing design and detailing. Or, after RCDC is finish footing designs and the distance between adjacent footings are below a specified minimum, then RCDC should ...

For pile cap design it will be helpful to include summary of pile forces for all the piles in the calculation report. Current version only provides a summary table of maximum pile reaction for service load cases but not all the piles. If I have to...

Currently, SFA uses the highest corner pressure to design the foundation size bearing on soil. Please revise the SFA program to have an option for a soil supported foundation (versus a rock supported foundation) and provide revised foundation sizi...

Staad foundation advance (SFA) has an option to assign plates of various thickness, but it should also have an option to model such plates in TRAPEZOIDAL PATTERN as shown in below images,which is frequently used to model raft foundation, also plac...

When the basement shear wall is modelled along with intermediate columns as shown in image, and such columns supposed to designed in RCDC , then RCDC devides the length of columns into small length/small segments as per meshing of adjacent shear w...

For the foundation design, Buoyancy and overturning stability checks are performed. Presently Soil above the footing area is considered for the stability checks. The software should allow the user wants to consider the dispersed soil weight for th...

make RCDC design all type footing(single,combine,mat......)combine (RCDC,RCDC FE and staad advance foundation)

May you please include the design of raft foundation and combined footing in RCDC
