Option to input load values in STAAD as a function F(x) where x varies ( e.g x= depth)

In recent times, I have been designing a large number of buried underground structures. (I figured many Engineers may have similar experiences on this too). For buried structures, a few of the applied loads are a function of a single variable i.e....

Steel Design Parameters in Modeler

I assume this has been mentioned before (might even be working on it) but being able to specify the steel design parameters in the Physical Modeler would be a game changer. A separate design module would be good too (sorta how RCDC works), but I d...
