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.

Please tell me Can Staad do a nonlinear pushover analysis for concrete structures? Also, Can Staad do a nonlinear dynamic time history analysis for concrete structures? Thanks

Please I suggest to add MASONRY structures analysis & design in the next version of STAAD .

On STAADPRO Connect Edition, the graphical display of support icon does not update in corresponding current load condition. It only shows the latest support definition whatever load case is being selected. Although forces and design results are sh...
