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...
Renumber Tool for Physical Members (Analytical Modeler)
The AutoForm tool helps speed up generation of PMembers within an analytical modeler. Would be nice to have the ability to number physical members similar to how nodes and analytical elements like beam, plate, and solid elements are renumbered.
Wind loading on cylindrical structures as per IS 1875 part 3
Provide a method to create wind loading on Cylindrical Structures as per Wind Pressure coefficients in clause 7.3.3.7 using Table 19 of IS 875 Part-3 2015
Need Option in RCDC to Design Beam supported by RC Column at one end and Steel bracket at other end
Need an Option to Design Beam supported by RC Column at one end and Steel bracket at other end. Currently RCDC doesn't recognize steel cupport and designing a beam s Cantilever which is not actual condition. This kind of Beam arrangment is require...
Add an option for optimize to specify equal leg angles.
It would be nice to tell the optimizer to optimize to angles where the angle legs are equal. By default I prefer to specify equal legs, as it eliminates confuse and chances of error when the legs are the same size. So even if the optimizer suggest...
it is a very useful option when you are trying to hide some selected entity for better view. HIDE SELECTED OBJECT rather than using invert Selection and other ways.
base pressure contour is not available for the envelope of the loads
Base pressure contour for raft footing is available for the envelop of the loads in Space Gass but not in STAAD. It is important to have this feature be implemented in STAAD too to facilitate the raft footing design based on allowable bearing pres...
OpenSTAAD Function to Retrieve the Id (Not GUID) of a Parametric Surface
As most of the functions exposed in OpenSTAAD uses the surfaceId to target a specific parametric surface, a function to retrieve the Id of the parametric surface by specifying it's name will be essential. I tried using the existing function GetPar...
