In light of the increasing opportunities in the construction business in Brazil, we strongly hope that STAAD Pro will support the Brazilian codes "NBR" in STAAD Pro.
Specifically, we would like to see the following representative NBR codes included:
NBR 6118: Design of Concrete Structures
NBR 6123: Wind Force
NBR 8800: Design of Steel Structures
NBR 16239: Seismic Force
We certainly will continue to review all regional design requests. Suneetha please check your installed version as the AISC 360 22 was introduced earlier this year.
Hi Carlos , its not just Brazilian code , but latest American Code is also not updated in Bentley is there any plan for update if so by when ?
We hope you will discuss this issue in Bentley.
We believe many people are eager to use STAAD Pro. for project in Brazil.
Many thanks for posting here. It is clear that the motivation is to provide a collection of enhancements in STAAD.Pro to make it suitable for design of construction projects in Brazil. This would be a major undertaking for which this would require a substantial business validation and structure to be put in place. It may make a lot more sense to identify smaller goals that could help your business in this market. With smaller steps a long journey can be made.
