It would be great to be able to mesh a STAAD stick model using the assigned profiles (i.e. having the software replace the beam with a set of plates to match the flange/web sizes and thicknesses) in order to do some high level finite element analy...

It is highly inefficient to require the user to switch cursors for each selection in STAAD. STAAD shall identify the context of operation automatically, and select the object required. Users should be able to select nodes, beams, plates, loads, te...

In STAAD 2023, if a report is created and the Utilization Ratio table is included, a critical Clause is listed for each member. However, there is no indication in/above the table of which code, or code version, that the Clause pertains to. Please ...

Dear Sir / Madam, Steel Auto Drafter is not giving beam presentation as per Releases provide in Analytical Modelling. Please check attached screenshot for your ready reference. Steel AutoDrafter drawings should be as per Release and Analytical mod...

Dear Colleagues, // STAAD.Pro CONNECT Edition - Version 22.12.00.142 // there was a situation where we had to find out the lateral forces due to wind on a light pole (tapered profile) and provide suitable support for the same. Wind was applied usi...

As of now, moving load feature is available only in vertical plane. But moving load in horizontal plane isn't available yet. But, as per industry demand, moving load to be applied longitudinal and transverse direction, simultaneously. Staad pro s...

In the new 2023 version, the new report builder doesn't allow you to include the failed member list when there aren't any failed members. v22 did allow for that and would report there are no failed members. Which was an easy concise way of saying ...

It is new code introduced by IS Commitee for Steel Design. Those engineers working on STEEL Design across any industry will have to use all codal provisions suggested by IS8168. Accordingly STAAD Pro has to be upgraded.

Under Properties in Analytical Modeling, one can currently only highlight assigned geometry for a single section at a time. A button could be added to the table that allows you to show all section properties in the current view by color, and then ...

STAAD.Pro- software is using EN1993-1-1 Eurocode 3 2005, - this is not the latest version of this design code. How do we go about updating this in STAAD-Pro ? We need to be using the latest design code for compliance with our EN1090 fabrication wo...
