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.

Users in ANZ have started to use STAAD and having their code will increase the usage. They already use the physical member design and this addition will boost the usage more.

This request is on behalf of Sam Das of AURECON
