I have a problem in STAAD Foundation; the mat foundation is not working, only the isolated footing is working.

Please install STAAD Foundation Advanced V8i  in your machine. STAAD Foundation provided within STAAD.Pro is a foundation design feature that is provided to STAAD.Pro users for FREE ( STAAD.Pro V8i Build #20.07.08..20 or later version). It runs with a valid license for STAAD.Pro only and does not require a STAAD.foundation license. It supports Isolated, combined and Pile cap modules in general mode. However it doed not support analysis or design of mat foundation. To do that, one needs to get the STAAD Foundation Advanced module, which is separately licensed. Users with a valid STAAD.Foundation license can contact their Bentley Account Manager to find out how they can get license for STAAD.Foundation Advanced in lieu of the existing license.
