Now, Staad.Pro includes the option of Reducible Live Load by UBC/IBC. But the formula included is 16-23 instead of 16-22. Also, Staad uses equation 16-23 for load type Live and type Roof Live, instead of using section 1607.11 for Roof Live and equ...

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 ...

I wouldn't lie by saying that I'm a vivid user of the calculator from the withing the Input Editor/Command file. But at times when the Window's calculator crashes, Staad's calculator comes to the rescue. hoping to add a few suggestions: 1. rather ...

While doing design of beam using Staad file interface at each level selected beams need to be design as per Staad design envelope. 1) Along X-direction grid design will be one envelope. 2) Along Z-direction grid design will be second envelope. 3) ...

To streamline the design process using the OpenSTAAD function, we aim to automate the visualization of member stress ratios for each analysis. Currently, when employing the "objOpenSTAAD.View.SetModeSectionPage 1, 6, 19" function, the stress ratio...

Please allow user to remove multilinear springs in GUI rather than going into the editor to remove 1 or 2 lines of text.

at present in the 'Translational repeat' command we have the option to 'link elements' so as to create new 'beam' elements... - could we expand this feature so that: 1) translational repeating a line (parallel to its local X axis) can have the pos...

Add a method to create a physical models using parametric attributes.

In the current AIJ2005 code allowable stress calculation of STAAD.Pro, the Young's modulus is fixed at 205000 (N/mm2). On the other hand, in the AIJ2002 code, by using the YNG=1 parameter, the Young's modulus used in the frame analysis can be use...
