I AM USER OF STAAD PRO APPLICATION AND FOUNDATION SOFTWARE, MY QUESTIONS ARE, - CAN I CONFIGURE THE FOUNDATION PROGRAMME WITH THE EUROCODE ?, - I HAVE A LICENSE OF STAAD PRO V8i AND FOUNDATION, THE LAST ONE IS THE BASIC PROGRAMME. WITH THE BASIC LICENSE…

STAAD FDN. for a combined strip footing of 94.5m when checked for part 35x8x0.6m combined strip footing for 6 cols.@5mc/c and 2.5m overhang showed OK results. But the same program for the entire strip of 94.5m shows depth to be insufficien PDF PDF OPTION…

This is the model imported from STAAD.Pro. I have followed all the steps from the tutorial videos and all the data seems to be imported correctly. Please help to identify what the problem is.

Dear Sir, I found that the load combination for Service Loads as per PIP STC01015 , for Horizontal Vessel Foundation Design , LC no. 5 ,6 for Operation + Sesmic may not correct . Staad show factor 1 for Seismic load not correct as per PIP, It shpuld…

What is the procedure or settings to design pedestals on a mat foundation in Staad Foundation Advanced. I have all the columns set to consider as pedestal in the data input pane. In the slab designer form the reinforcement size options for pedestals…

Hi, I try to design a footing and the columns have a beta angle 45° and I need the footing remain horizontal, exist any parameter to perform the design in such condition?

I have tried alot to convert the units to Metric but it sticks to English Units ? Is there a way to convert everything to metric. ?

I am looking at using the cantilever pile design option, I am in Australia and realise the software will only design this type of footing to the US code. I would like to do the analysis, get the maximum moment in the pile then design the reinforcing by…

Just as a bit of background, I have a STAAD.Pro model where I have designed a structural steel building frame and would like to have a foundation file to design the pile caps for each of the columns. I have +100 columns to check. When I use STAAD…

I'm referring to the STAAD.Foundation help>General Foundations>Grouping Foundation Designs. Step 3 says to select ' Create Schematic Diagram ' tool. Was this tool renamed or did the procedure change? I did manage to do the grouping but I came up with…

With reference to the picture, I am assuming that STAAD.Foundation relates cohesive soil only to undrained condition and cohesionless soil only to drained condition. Unless there's something I technically misunderstand, according to BS 1377-7:1990,…

Please see the picture above and advice; does STAAD.Foundation consider the value in the input pane gross or net after clicking the apply button in the global settings? Because when I chose 'Net' then apply the description still says Gross.

Upon clicking the design button I get the following message. The message ofcourse makes sense, but considering that software are expected to eliminate chances of data entry error to some extent, the message should not pop-up in the first place. What I…

Dear sir, In the latest staad foundation release 8.24,the punching shear is showing neagative values below columns ,checked various time.Also in previous version punching shear showing ok and in the latest version coming negative or showing values…

i have an irregularly shaped concrete mat shown below the mat was discretized into triangular elements. i need to design the flexural reinforcements in orthogonal directions using wood-armer moments. how do i extract the design moments? …

Has anyone had issues with the speed at which STAAD Foundation Advanced is processing and analyzing a large mat model? If so how did you resolve the issue? We have a large mat model with several thousand point loads, several dozen line/pressure loads…

Hello, Please, I am a bit uncertain about how to interpret or use moment values (plate contours) from staad plate analysis for design. I want to ask, is it correct to design the slab for the concentrated moments that occur around columns and walls…

while i am trying to design the pedestal in isolated design. the program doesn't respond and it is getting turn off automatically.

Refer screen capture, this is a reoccurring temperamental issue. Sometimes it happens and sometimes it doesn't. Mainly affects the Meshing Setup pane and the Create New Job pane. I have no scroll bar so cannot go down to access the missing part of the…

I have followed the video on www.learn.bently.com for a Pile Supported Mat Foundation. The example shows how to design grade beams connected to piles by using the Beam Designer tab in the Main Navigator. Why is this tab not available, am I doing something…

I am designing a mat slab. The slab Designer dialogue box allows me to set the top cover and bottom cover. Does the longitudinal or transverse reinforcing have the least cover? Are layers 1 & 4 always in the longitudinal direction? Does SFA allow…

Attached is a zipped folder of issues I have been having with SFA. I cannot find a workaround to this issue and realize I don't have the most recent version of STAAD Foundation Advanced which I cannot download due to my companies restrictions. In the…

Dear all, I did the dynamic simulation of a particular foundation on staad pro that the model was working without any problem. I've then added some rigid links at the bottom of foundation which have been linked to one spring at the center of gravity…

I am unable to see the buttons for exporting to STAAD Foundation in the Foundation design window, and the window is not re-sizable. This is version 21.00.02.30.
