    Thank you for posting this idea. However, I think you have mis quoted the code.

    IS 8168: Method for determination of available lysine in foods

    Do you mean IS18168:2023? If so then what sections/aspects of the code are you suggesting STAAD.Pro should implement?

    For example clause 5.8.2 states that:-

    For moment resisting frames in particular, detailed geometric non-linear analysis shall be carried out. But, the same may be neglected for any storey i, when the ratio 𝛼i of the secondary moment to the primary moment complies with:....

    Currently STAAD.Pro does offer geometric non-linear analysis. Are you looking for a method that can be used to verify whether the method needs to be used. i.e. a method to check the equation:-

    𝛼i = 𝑊i𝛥i / 𝐻i𝐹i ≤ 0.04

    where:-

    Wi Weight acting on storey i

    Δi Lateral displacement of storey i, from linear elastic analysis

    Hi Height of storey i

    Fi Lateral load acting on storey i
