There is currently no efficient way to consider the live load reduction factor in STAAD.Pro. It would be fantastic to add a parameter to the design section (e.g., under CSA S16-19 or AISC 360-16) to consider a live load reduction on an element by ...

Hi, Typically, to get end forces to design the connection for a certain beam size, a group is created and the bounding beam forces for the group are extracted using the "Beam Results - Beam Forces - Summary table" using the "Results Setup - Range ...

Please add the ability to automatically generate wind loading to eurocodes.

STAAD does not have NZS 1170.5 in its Seismic Codes. Users in ANZ uses custom spectrum and factored it up to match the base shear. Adding this code will help the users in ANZ work directly with the NZ code and thus speed up their productivity. Use...

Would like to get implemented NBC 2015 Code parameter.

When dealing with a substantial number of members within a STAAD model, the design parameters tend to split automatically. Consequently, this automatic splitting poses challenges when attempting to review the design parameters. The same situation ...

Heavy loaded structures...

Show code check results for more than just the worst case. Should be able to see what the next worst, and next worse after that and so on. It's been over 10 years since I used it but I believe SACS does this. If so, could take a look at it.

OpenSTAAD function to extract the capacity of members, so that it will be used for additional checks as per Code

Dear All, I highly recommend to include calculation of seismic load using NBCC 2015. I see it as a big gap in Staad Pro not to include Seismic loading using NBCC 2015 Thanks a lot
