Dear sir,
which codes are available in staad pro to design the stainless steel. can we design the stainless steel structure by using aisc lrfd or bs5950?
thank you in advance.
There are no design codes implemented in STAAD.Pro which would be specific to the stainless steel design. I don't think that AISC LRFD or BS 5950 codes can be used for the stainless steel design (though I am not 100% sure). For example, Eurocode EN 1993-1-1 describes the rules to design hot rolled steel sections, however, there is a separate code EN 1993-1-4 specific to the stainless steel design.
sir,
when bentley is going to add 1993-1-4 in staad pro?It is available in latest version?
No, it is not implemented yet and there is no implementation date set. You can suggest such enhancements here: https://communities.bentley.com/products/ram-staad/i/
