There has been a major error discovered in the two Russian steel design modules in STAAD.Pro which are resulting in the report of unreliable results and it is recommended that users cease using the Russian steel code at this time.

The error manifests itself in designs of multiple members.  The results of the second and subsequent members are being affected by the design of the preceding member.  The results can either…

What a great session! I just completed my Structural Interoperability: AECOsim Building Designer with ISM and STAAD.Pro workshop, where I covered the how to send structural modeling information between AECOsim Building Designer and STAAD.Pro through ISM. A lot was covered and a number of questions came up – here are a few important takeaways from the session I hope you’ll remember:

• Exporting a Model from…

What a great session! I just completed my Designing Concrete Slabs session, where I covered the how to design concrete slabs using the STAAD.Pro Reinforced Concrete Designer. A lot was covered and a number of questions came up – here are a few important takeaways from the session I hope you’ll remember:

• Generating Load Combinations and Load Envelopes
• Performing an Analysis in the Modeling Mode
• Creating…

What a great session! I just completed my Performing a Direct Analysis session, where I covered the how to incorporate the requirements for a direct analysis into STAAD.Pro for a steel building structure. A lot was covered and a number of questions came up – here are a few important takeaways from the session I hope you’ll remember:

• Creating the Direct Analysis Load Definition
• Generating Load Combinations…
