    STAAD vs others

    To both @Tstruct and @user277418, the point I was trying to make was not about comparing against any provider, but about the importance of having a system that retains the data in a consistent way without changing the fundamentals as engineers frequently have to return to historical data...

    STAAD vs others

    As product manager of STAAD.Pro, I clearly have a particular view about what it is that STAAD.Pro offers that has made it the solution adopted by so many engineers globally. The reality is that it is almost a different reason for each organisation and every engineer. What I can say without...

    "Cannot Create Load Generation Command" error.

    The issue you are having is due to the model already having combinations defined. Comment out this command and the LOAD LIST that follows the analysis, then you will see the command generator will operate and can add the commands as required. This is because you are essentially generating...

    Extracting Moments, Shear etc from Plate model of Beam

    Without seeing your model it is hard to determine exactly what you are trying to model. What I would suggest if you need to have a finite element model, then create a suitable mesh to get node points at or close to the points where you want to extract the forces. Alternatively you can work with...

    MANHOLE DESIGN

    I assume as you are posting in the STAAD forum that you are using STAAD.Pro and have modelled your manhole using a finite element mesh, then when you review the stresses in the post processing mode, these will be based on the resolved moments and direct stresses. For rebar design, you may want...

    How SAFE is Staad?

    First off I should declare my interest as I am the product manager of STAAD.Pro. As you can imagine I am immensely proud of the program and take seriously any issue found and reported whether a bug or limitation that users would like to see addressed. All these issues are recorded and...

    Anyone using STAAD(X)

    Let me start by saying that I am the product manager for STAAD.Pro and STAAD(X) and have been involved in the development of STAAD since it was brought out of the DOS and its early foray into Windows days of STAAD III. STAAD.Pro continues to be a widely respected application and has benefits...
