Vibrating Machine Design

Question

Hello, 
 
 I am trying to design a foundation for a vibrating machine on soil. STAAD Foundation Advanced successfully provided me with a Vibrational Analysis of the machine foundation using ACI 351.3R-04 (FEA method), however STAAD does not provide me with the optimum steel reinforcement design of the foundation nor pier. Is there anyway this can be calculated or provided by STAAD ?? I am using STAAD Foundation edition v9.6.1.74. If this can not be attained from STAAD how can I get it because I can not even get stress values ? 
 
 regards, 
 Khaled

SFA does not calculate reinforcements for machine foundations. 
 The program creates a STAAD.Pro solid element model to analyze the foundation. That file is located in one of the sub-folders under the folder where the STAAD Foundation model is kept. You could open that in STAAD.Pro to view the stresses.
