Hi, I have an OpenSTAAD program that generates groups and that applies loads to the elements/beams/nodes in those groups. However I'd like to apply the load to the group directly using openSTAAD as you can in the STAAD Command File? What I want to...

I assume this has been mentioned before (might even be working on it), but being able to specify the steel design parameters in the Modeler would be a game changer. A separate design module would be good too, but I don't think it's necessary.

It should be the default way and I think its a great idea to include Mass Reference Load in X,Y and Z global direction as a default as it works for ELF, RSA and TH, Static and Dynamic Analysis.I would also Suggest Let User define what they would l...

There is no method, report, or output command available to display the "k" coefficient used by the program for vertical distribution of seismic base shear per ASCE 7-16, Eq 12.8-2. Since this value can vary with the period it needs to be reported ...

Have the material properties from the Staad analysis import from staad.

Design of raft foundation in RCDC FE/RAM concept doesn't report about the stability of foundation like against overturning, sliding, max.base pressure etc

There is a webinar for modelling, analysis and design of rcc rectangular water retaining structure along with impulsive and convective wave pressure on coffee corner, but there are some limitations and assumptions, like the xml templates are only ...

I assume this has been mentioned before (might even be working on it) but being able to specify the steel design parameters in the Physical Modeler would be a game changer. A separate design module would be good too (sorta how RCDC works), but I d...

I would like to import a Staad model to SFA then design a pile cap based on the reactions and then design the piles supporting the pile cap. I see that there is a drilled pier module within plant foundations, but I can't seem to import the loads. ...

Create the ability to use a .dwg or .dxf file as a background when using Staad Physical Modeler. Have clickable nodes in background. Have the ability to place that background at different elevations.
