Currently in staad foundation max/min bearing pressure is shown only for the compression cases.Incase the minimum pressure is governed in uplift case the same is not shown in the summary table.Same can be updated in upcoming revisions.Also the bea...

When STAAD Foundation calculates the reinforcement of the foundation, it is hoped that the function of manually defining the diameter and spacing of the reinforcement bars can be added. As desinger can choose any diameter and space of rebar to imp...

As staad pro capable to suggest and optimise steel member size, similarly staad should also be capable to suggest and optimize RCC members' section sizes, like beams, columns,shear walls, slabs, slabs etc. so that manual efforts would be minimised...

RCDC should read and and design shear wall and retaining wall having tapered section. Stepped shear wall design should also be done in RCDC.

To determine stability analysis of raft foundation in SFA, Automatic features (by few clicks) is not available in SFA, rather much more manual, repetative, tedious and time consuming process, which lessens the efficiency and deliverables of softwa...

For designing of "ring wall foundation" in SFA, as of now, only "Ground supported ring wall foundation design" available in SFA. But "Pile supported ring wall foundation design " isn't available. So it is necessary to implement the same in SFA.

I would like to suggest the addition of column designs that are inclined at an angle. You may find a project having many columns inclined at a certain angle; it will consume a lot of time to design them manually, as RCDC is not capable of designin...

Hello i would suggest STAAD and RCDC to implement design of beams which are inclined at angle to meet project requirements.

we conventionally add a new job and assign all the parameters from scratch while trying to replicate a similar footing desing within the same STAAD.Foundation file. however adding a cop/replicate/clone job might save time avoid the chance of missi...
