I am suggesting STAAD to implement new features for users, which will make the users use a short time in steel design. 1. As we know, sometimes we may have a secondary beam where this beam will create a node in the primary beam. Now, to make the s...

As per actual possibility provided by AISC 360, it is possible to perform design with Direct Analysis Method but also Effective Length Method and First Order method. In some case it is useful to do analysis with First order method (Dynamic Seismic...

In staad pro CE, in analytical modeler, when we add new node/s, the existing member is divided into segments, and the program takes length/effective length of that member as part, not takes as a whole member length about its major or minor axis ac...

I am liking this new calculator it super cool. But I have two ideas to build on it 1) The training video that Bentley created to demonstrate this calculator had the demonstrator use the calculator and then open up the input file to delete out the ...

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...

STAAD Pro CONNECT Edition shows a warning based on IS 1893 part 1:2002, when the latest code available currently under use is IS 1893 part 1:2016. Kindly clarify why should warnings based on old codes appear when the user has specifically selected...

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...

Frequently used for design of all steel structure with shed/roof CONCERN CODE(ALL) especially IS 875 part 3: 1-Sir, staad CE has support the auto wind load as for clad/unclad buildings, this wind load is applied on the surfaces/periphery of buildi...

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...
