Dear Staff Please I have some suggestions for the future development of STAAD as: 1- Nonlinear pushover analysis for CONCRETE structures 2- Analysis & Design of MASONRY Structures 3- Analysis & Design of COMPOSITE steel-concrete COLU...

Both of Surjit and Sabrina are Great at Explaining New Features and avoiding redundant or unnecessary tasks!

RCDC does an excellent job performing seismic ductile wall design according to Eurocode, yet the following areas needs improvement or clarification: 1. According to EN 1998:2004 section 5.4.2.4(4 and 5), seismic walls shall be designed for moment...

Moving load requires a Beam Member in model, If Model did not have any, it should be able to add a dummy member on the fly based on Moving load definition.

SJI joists are available in the analytical modeler, but not the physical modeler.

Adding the unit for FYLD parameter would be helpful. Just like the material information. Sometimes It is confusing which unit should be used.(of course it is same as material strength(stress))

I want to assign different strengths to the main reinforcement and the stirrup ,which is very common design requirement Hope this feature can be implemented in the new version of RCDC , version 09.014.00.128 released on 2020/9/15 still does not ha...

Worley NZ, van Tonder, Gideon (New Plymouth) <Gideon.vanTonder@worley.com> has requested for Projected Area loading for plates just like we have for members.

There is a real need for users who are working with plate elements. The current interface only allows the user to see the contours for plate center stress for a selected load case or combination. However for design engineer it is important to asse...
