Annotate Plate Stresses (Mx, My, Mxy, SQx, SQy)

Within the Annotation Menu, could you include Plates Stresses & Nodal Forces ? This will be very useful to display specific plate /nodal results during compilation of Structural reports. Given that the contours only show a range of values. Thi...

Make Material Definition properties apply for steel design

Currently, according to Bentley Support, the Material Definition properties are only used in the Connection Design module and are not used for steel design & code checking. The SGR, FYLD, FU parameters must be used instead to define the materi...

Implement unity check of capacity for aluminum members according EN 1999-1-1

It should work similarly to code checking steel members according to EN 1993-1-1. It would benefit everyone designing aluminum structures due to highly corrosive environments and/or weight restrictions.

Assigning DJ1 / DJ2 to a model to define start/end of members must improve

To be forced to go assign both a node # and every member between 2 nodes for a few beams is not a big deal but when it's a giant model, it takes days to assign these values for deflection checks. Something must be done to make this more user frien...

Using arbitrary Young's modulus (E) in AIJ2005 code calculations

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...

Provision to interchange the local axis of elements in STAAD

Please find the combination of three models by different engineer. Under this when finally local stresses are checked, the contours are not smooth. if by any chance local axis of elements can be change, this will same a valuable time of re modelli...

Physical Modeler - Allow multiple wind load definitions to be combined into one primary load case

Because you must create multiple wind definitions for wind along a single direction (i.e. windward, leeward, sidewall) it would be helpful to have the ability to combine these in a single load case. Combining them in the load combos is cumbersome....
