Unless I am mistaken in order to run a direct analysis, you specify notional loads. However, per the specification it is allowable to use direct modeling of imperfections per C.2a. There is a way to specify camber and drift for members, but from w...

When you use the Generate Rotate command, the beta angles remains the same so you have to uptade member by member the new beta angle for the non-orthogonal elements that were affected. The idea is a custom tool that automatically creates the new b...

StaadPro provides the option to create a custom open section by defining a profile polygon (refer to the snapshot attached). Sections created this can be visualized as 3D objects when rendered instead of just showing a simple line. This helps in c...

I think it is a good idea to allow users to name their Tapered sections as with the prismatic sections or sections created by user table. Because many times user creates many tapered sections in his model, andt when it comes to modifying one of th...

Kindly add open staad function to remove selected member loads. Thank you.

Add the concrete design code for environmental structures into STAAD for designing water retaining structures.

The environmental design of concrete needed for water retaining structures

Extend existing STAAD.Pro to ADINA interop to export cross-section dimensions in addition to the existing "General" cross-section type so that nonlinear elastic-plastic material can readily be applied to beeam elements.

The Staad Analytical modeler interface need more mouse controls. For example, the model rotate options using mouse left/right bottoms, Zoom options using mouse wheel buttons etc. should be introduced in the analytical modeler. This option is alrea...
