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 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...

Please inform the date of release of staad pro/RCDC for Design of Various type of Ground Level and Overhead Water tanks as per IS3370

In staad foundation designing, hoped that desinger can specify any bar diameter and spacing when configuring rebar, rather than selecting the diameter and spacing provided by the software. It is a very useful feature. Other software can also achie...

Currently in staad foundation max/min bearing pressure is shown only for the compression cases.Incase the minimum pressure is governed in uplift case the same is not shown in the summary table.Same can be updated in upcoming revisions.Also the bea...

When STAAD Foundation calculates the reinforcement of the foundation, it is hoped that the function of manually defining the diameter and spacing of the reinforcement bars can be added. As desinger can choose any diameter and space of rebar to imp...

As staad pro capable to suggest and optimise steel member size, similarly staad should also be capable to suggest and optimize RCC members' section sizes, like beams, columns,shear walls, slabs, slabs etc. so that manual efforts would be minimised...

RCDC should read and and design shear wall and retaining wall having tapered section. Stepped shear wall design should also be done in RCDC.

To determine stability analysis of raft foundation in SFA, Automatic features (by few clicks) is not available in SFA, rather much more manual, repetative, tedious and time consuming process, which lessens the efficiency and deliverables of softwa...

For designing of "ring wall foundation" in SFA, as of now, only "Ground supported ring wall foundation design" available in SFA. But "Pile supported ring wall foundation design " isn't available. So it is necessary to implement the same in SFA.
