Applying Eurocode Wind and Seismic Loads in STAAD.Pro

STAAD.Pro already supports Eurocode for steel and concrete design, but it still doesn’t have automatic wind and seismic load generation according to Eurocode. Why is this feature missing, and when can we expect Bentley to add it? With so many Euro...

AutoDrafter - Allow Isometric View (Full MTO Table)

It is only possible to create a plan/section by selecting a member at that location, and must be in the plane of either a plan or section. MTO take-off "drawing" only shows table - a great addition would be to add the isometric view of the structu...

Add a Plate Force Envelope to "Results along a Line Command".

When designing shear wall pier segments around an opening, it would be helpful to have an envelope of in-plane plate forces in addition to results for each combination. Selecting "envelope" from the load combinations does not change the values in ...

Add ability to show "Colour by Utilization Ratio" for 3D view in post processing workflow

It would be good to have a 3D view in post processing with colours of the beam as defined with a UR value. It is possible to have this with beam view now, but would be good if we have it for 3D view like SACS have. (as shown below for example).

ENABLE DESIGN MODELING FOR CORRUGATED STEEL DECK DIAPHRAGMS

Section 12.3 of ASCE 7 - 22 states that unless a diaphragm can be idealized as either flexible or rigid, structural analysis should explicitly include consideration of the stiffness of the diaphragm (i.e. semirigid modeling). I am publishing an ar...

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.
