Several years ago I was invited to attend an AISC Specifications committee meeting. Over the years that involvement has increased, beginning with attendance, to now serving as a member of three AISC committees: Committee on Specifications, a task committee on Stability, and a Seismic Design Manual subcommittee, and an ASCE committee on steel building design. The committees consist of a mix of practicing engineers, academicians…

It has been noted that the AISC 14.1 section profile database that is delivered with STAAD.Pro V8i SS6 (20.07.11.33) has a couple of issues which can be problem with the following profiles:- 

1) Models that include standard or extra strong pipe sections.  These had been assigned incorrect STAAD names and thus a standard profile would be assigned a extra strong property and an extra strong profile would be assigned the standard…

A number of users have reported an issue with the New Editor on certain installations and found that it crashes when STAAD.Pro is launched. 

Clearly this represents a significant limitation to these users.  There are two options available to address this problem:-

• After launching STAAD.Pro, click on the Configuration option in the Project Tasks panel in the Start Page.  In the dialog, click on the Applications sheet and click…
