    Make Staad Multi Processor (Multi-Threaded)

    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...

    A few formal comments

    The "Individual Beam Label" command is very useful, I would just redesign it. Now it's like this: if I want, for example, a unit check of only some members, I have to first display all of them and then click out the ones I don't want, so that I ca...

    Calculation of Ay/Az shear areas and TD/TB values for the General sections

    Previously, STAAD.Pro was capable of calculating the Ay/Az shear areas when exporting non-standard shapes from the Section Wizard or when defining a General UPT section using profile points. However, in the latest versions of STAAD.Pro, the softwa...

    AutoDrafter - Allow Turn On/Off Layers

    Some layers in autodrafter clog up the view of the drawing (e.g., member centerlines). It would be great if layers can be turned on/off within AutoDrafter Drawing Style Manager.

    Story Shear for Wind and Seismic Loads:

    At present, only storey drift & displacements are reported. There is a need to include storey shear values for both the X and Z directions to support comprehensive analysis.- There is an enhancement request already in place for this. For Euroc...

    Add WWF shapes to standard library

    The old legacy section properties databases had WWF shapes (at least for Canada) but they weren't copied over to the new standard section properties database. It would be better if they were.

    Beam local axis symbol, scaling
