There should be a feature in RCDC whereby you can group selected footing for combine footing design and detailing. Or, after RCDC is finish footing designs and the distance between adjacent footings are below a specified minimum, then RCDC should ...

we conventionally add a new job and assign all the parameters from scratch while trying to replicate a similar footing desing within the same STAAD.Foundation file. however adding a cop/replicate/clone job might save time avoid the chance of missi...

It would be good to get a function in OpenSTAAD function to get the CoG of the Model.

There is no method, report, or output command available to display the "k" coefficient used by the program for vertical distribution of seismic base shear per ASCE 7-16, Eq 12.8-2. Since this value can vary with the period it needs to be reported ...

There is no way to add wind load in other direction in case of unclad building. For example : - staad taking load case only in one direction i.e. +X, whenever I try to add another case in z direction, previous case gets deleted automatically. So, ...

For Inclusion of built up section in standard I section combination with Channel section on top flange, which is widely used for gantry girder.

Implement a method to generate loading on roof structures as per the IS 875 part 3 wind load code using the Cpe method using the values in Table 8 / 9

For the structures like Metro railway station and Industrial buildings, Clients are demanding to perform the long-term deflection check of the beam. RCDC should allow to perform the long-term deflection check for the beams selected by the user. Ge...

Just as the title. To be able to analyze a structure with Tension-Only members using the Direct Analysis Method.

This would cut down the analysis time required by STAAD significantly. If it is too much work to change the solver code to benefit from multi-threads, can at least each basic load or each load combination be run at a different thread? There's no r...
