STAAD PRO
by BENTLEY SYSTEM, Inc
STAAD PRO is a structural & civil design software.
Main Features
STAAD Pro is a comprehensive and integrated finite element analysis and design offering that includes a state-of-the-art user interface, visualization capabilities and international design codes.
It is capable of analyzing any structure exposed to static loading, a dynamic response, wind, earthquake, and moving loads. STAAD Pro is the premier FEM analysis and design tool for any type of project including towers, culverts, plants, bridges, stadiums, and marine structures.
Analysis and Design
The standard STAAD Pro analysis methods, including static elastic, p-delta, dynamic and seismic analysis routines, provide with a perfect grounding in structural and analysis requirements for an array of projects.
STAAD Pro reduces the resource hours required to properly load the structure by automating the forces caused by wind, earthquakes, snow, or vehicles.
Furthermore STAAD Pro can easily accommodate the design and loading requirements with each codes, with each material and in each country the structure is, including U.S., European (including the Eurocodes), Nordic, Indian, and Asian codes. Even special codes such as AASHTO, ASCE 52, IBC, and the U.S. aluminum code are also included.
Interoperability and Open Architecture
STAAD Pro is more than an analysis and design application. From simple importing of CAD models to creating custom links and developing third-party applications using Open- STAAD, it can be the heart of the structural solution.When integrated with ProjectWise®, STAAD.Pro models can be efficiently managed with the leading project collaboration system. By using the ISM integration, models become part of an integrated workflow.
Quality Assurance
STAAD Pro undergoes the most demanding quality and testing regime. All procedures follow the requirements of 10CFR Part 50, 10CFR21 and ASME NQA-1-2000 to approve STAAD.Pro for use on the design of nuclear installations.
