Add C-shaped steel and cold forming specifications in STAAD - No.1 Issue

We have a large number of new energy projects to design, when using STAAD as analysis and calculation software, can only simplify the processing, such as replace C-shaped steel with channel steel, replace cold forming specification with general steel specification, so we urgently need to add C-shaped steel and cold forming specifications in STAAD to meet the actual project design needs.

We hope Staad will include followings soon: Ordered by Priority.Please see the attachments for getting more detailed information including required standards and codes.
