I highly recommend to include calculation of vertical seismic load using NBCC 2010/2015 . I see it as a big gap in Staad Pro not to include calculation of vertical seismic loading using NBCC 2010/2015

Improvement should be done on RC wall, during modelling on places of RC wall i don't place beam on top of the wall because the wall it self act as a beam,but when it comes to assign of floor load in places where there is no beam on RC wall the flo...

I've had trouble using rigid diaphragms in the Physical Modeler. When I select a group of nodes and assign them a diaphragm all at once the diaphragm produces an error in the Analytical Modeler. When I add the same nodes to a diaphragm one by one ...

For example, if we have a connection, we could to export and convert 3D Connection in a separate 3D Model just for the connection. And, would be possible to analyze in STAAD or RAM Elements.

BS 8110 should be added currently is not available in design at analytical modeling ,the BS available for concrete is only BS 8007.

Automatic creation of shear wall should be made available like etabs. Creating shear wall should have straight forward approach like etabs. in staad the approach is little tediuos

Currently when you do the intersection of two beams, STAAD finds the intersection without taking into account any offsets the beams may have. The result is you have to manually move the node at the intersection if offsets are involved. This is mad...

This feature is shown every time I press Alt key to quickly access the menu options. However this slows down the menu option selection on the Ribbon tab. On the V8i Select Edition, it is very smooth and quick to use Alt + Shortcut Letter (just und...

Add a default section and material to be used as a rigid member in lieu of OFFSET. Make sure that profile and material are bein created in such way that the deflection of rigid member is as less as it can be without any warning.
