JIS/TIS c-light lip section database for coldform steel design

Too many requirement for design the JIS/TIS c-light lip section as cold formed steel using STAAD. So, is it possible to have an JIS/TIS c-light lip section properties included in the database. If there are these section database in STAAD, it's can...

Multiple design parameters results in post processing window for Indian code IS 800-2007 is requested.

This will reduce the tedious process of turning on and off each design parameter from editor file and then running the full input file again multiple times. If this can be implemented for AISC-360 then it shall be implemented for other codes also.

Extend PRINT CG for plates and solids

It will be very helpful for the estimation if PRINT CG command works for groups of plate and beams and solid also. This will give directly the weight and volume of certain part of model, which is most of the the basic parameter of optimization. Ri...

Steel Design Parameters in Physical Modeller

I assume this has been mentioned before (might even be working on it), but being able to specify the steel design parameters in the Modeler would be a game changer. A separate design module would be good too, but I don't think it's necessary.

Mass Reference Load in a Model as a Default

It should be the default way and I think its a great idea to include Mass Reference Load in X,Y and Z global direction as a default as it works for ELF, RSA and TH, Static and Dynamic Analysis.I would also Suggest Let User define what they would l...
