STAAD PRO



STAAD PRO :- Worlds Most Popular Structural Analysis and Design Software


  • State-of-the-art graphical environment that uses well established standard MS Windows functionality and familiar layouts; enhanced with clear modes and pages to simplify the engineering workflow
  • Concurrent engineering-based user environment for model development, analysis, design, visualization, and verification
  • Full range of analysis including static, P-delta, pushover, response spectrum, time history, cable (linear and non-linear), buckling and steel, concrete and timber design.
  • Optional Advanced Analysis engine. A new substantially faster solver which can provide solutions of large structures in a fraction of the time currently required by the standard STAAD engine. The Advanced Solver generally uses less disk and memory.
  • Object-oriented intuitive 2D/3D graphical model generation
  • Pull down menus, floating tool bars, tool tip help
  • Quick data input through property sheets and spreadsheets
  • Customizable structural templates for creating a model
  • Complete support of VBA macros for customization
  • Supports truss and beam members, plates, solids, linear and non-linear cables, and curvilinear beams
  • Advance automatic load generation facilities for wind, area, floor, and moving loads
  • Flexible zoom, pan and multiple views
  • Isometric and perspective views with 3D shapes
  • Toggle display of loads, supports, properties, joints, members, etc.
  • Built-in command file editor with copy and paste through clipboard
  • Simple command language
  • Rectangular and cylindrical coordinate systems with mix and match capabilities
  • Joint, member/element, mesh generation with flexible user-controlled numbering scheme
  • Efficient algorithm that minimizes disk space requirements
  • FPS, metric, or SI units
  • Presentation quality printer plots of geometry and results
  • Script style programming language that extracts data and executes external software
  • Multiple analysis are performed in the same run—perfect for phase or stage construction

It is a nice site!!

I have also started one, recently. Uploaded some video of how to use ETABS. I am Planning to the same for STAAD You may have a look at It
