A print command such as "PRINT JOINT FORCES LIST 1 2 3 etc." that would output all the member end forces at a specified node, for the specified load cases. This is currently possible using macros/openSTAAD, but would be very helpful if added to th...

Add the ASME-STS-1 2021 file as an option for the results of the analysis. There are only four equations from ASME, then everything defaults to AISC 2016, so most of the work is done.

every time when we update software, it should be notified to take necessary backup of added section for cold form, it is really painful doing same work in 1-2 month while software is being updated. it will save designerr time

1. Connection Tags view - this window should have "on the top function" To be above the other windows when user click the member or node. 2. Connection Tag Check Results - this window should be "expandable". 3. Check Connection Tags - this window ...

The floor load command does not work properly for 1 way load distribution if a node is not perfectly inline with adjacent nodes. Example: 2 nodes have a Z coordinate of 8.333 however the 3rd has 8.333333 and the floor load command does not populat...

I am tasked with designing a steel support structure in Staadpro connect edition. As part of the design, I need to conduct a seismic analysis of the frame. The steel structure is 12 m high and needs to be designed according to the New Zealand seis...

Dear Staff Please I have some suggestions for the future development of STAAD as: 1- Nonlinear pushover analysis for CONCRETE structures 2- Analysis & Design of MASONRY Structures 3- Analysis & Design of COMPOSITE steel-concrete COLU...

RCDC does an excellent job performing seismic ductile wall design according to Eurocode, yet the following areas needs improvement or clarification: 1. According to EN 1998:2004 section 5.4.2.4(4 and 5), seismic walls shall be designed for moment...
