STAAD.Pro
STAAD.Pro supports structural analysis and code-based design across multiple material systems.
On the software discovery list. Connector development and release dates have not been announced.
Workflow ideas
Assemble an analytical model
Start from the idealised geometry, material assumptions and analysis scope. In the intended STAAD.Pro preview, assemble an analytical model; the visible result is a solver-ready model view with mesh regions and constraints exposed. Review units, connectivity, mesh suitability and model assumptions before accepting or exporting it.
Run code combinations
Begin with the selected load cases, contacts and solution controls. In the intended STAAD.Pro preview, run code combinations; the visible result is a configured analysis state with loads and boundary conditions visible. Review load paths, restraints, convergence controls and applicable codes before accepting or exporting it.
Review member utilisation
Use the completed result set and acceptance quantities. In the intended STAAD.Pro preview, review member utilisation; the visible result is plots or tables that connect response values to the model. Review convergence, sensitivity, units and engineering reasonableness before accepting or exporting it.
