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...

Add NZS 1170.5 code to Seismic Codes in STAAD

STAAD does not have NZS 1170.5 in its Seismic Codes. Users in ANZ uses custom spectrum and factored it up to match the base shear. Adding this code will help the users in ANZ work directly with the NZ code and thus speed up their productivity. Use...

Postprocessing display of multiple design blocks for AIJ codes

Currently, it is possible to display results for multiple design blocks with AISC360-16 results only. This feature is also required for AIJ2005 and 2002. In AIJ codes, load cases are classified into parmanent loads, temporary loads and loads for...

Multiple mass models/ seismic analyses for design

Many codes, particularly IS 1893 part-2 and IS 3370 part-2, the RCC elevated/underground water retaining structure should be analyse and design in "TANK ENPTY" and "TANK FULL" both of the conditions, but staad pro seismic definition whether it is ...

OpenSTAAD function to turn on members stress ratio.

To streamline the design process using the OpenSTAAD function, we aim to automate the visualization of member stress ratios for each analysis. Currently, when employing the "objOpenSTAAD.View.SetModeSectionPage 1, 6, 19" function, the stress ratio...

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...

Use a CAD file as background layer in Physical Modeler

Create the ability to use a .dwg or .dxf file as a background when using Staad Physical Modeler. Have clickable nodes in background. Have the ability to place that background at different elevations.

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...

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...
