    Is there a way to input pile (node) stiffness and damping in Staad for a time history analysis? That means inputting support stiffness and damping values for all 6 degrees of freedom (translation and rotation)

    Damping would not affect the static analysis results. For frequency calculation, STAAD.Pro calculates the free vibration un-damped natural frequencies. That is not affected by the material damping. The effect of damping would only be seen in a dynamic…

    Structural response to wind is generally elastic and so I think you are fine considering 1% damping ( damping factor 0.01 ) for wind analysis.
