Result viewing, result verification and report generation tools for examining displacement diagrams, bending moment and shear force diagrams, beam, plate and solid stress contours, etc.ĥ. Design of shear and moment connections for steel members.Ĥ. Reinforcement calculations for concrete beams, columns, slabs and shear walls. Design engines for code checking and optimization of steel, aluminum and timber members. Analysis engines for performing linear elastic and pdelta analysis, finite element analysis, frequency extraction, and dynamic response (spectrum, time history, steady state, etc.).ģ. These utilities allow the user to create the geometry, assign properties, orient cross sections as desired, assign materials like steel, concrete, timber, aluminum, specify supports, apply loads explicitly as well as have the program generate loads, design parameters etc.Ģ. Solid blocks are represented using brick elements. Walls, slabs and panel type entities are represented using triangular and quadrilateral finite elements. Beam and column members are represented using lines.

Graphical model generation utilities as well as text editor based commands forĬreating the mathematical model.

The program hence consists of the following facilities to enable this task. STAAD.Pro is a general purpose structural analysis and design program with applications primarily in the building industry - commercial buildings, bridges and highway structures, industrial structures, chemical plant structures, dams, retaining walls, turbine foundations, culverts and other embedded structures, etc.
