What Is Staad Pro?
Staad pro is a structural analysis and designing software used to analyze and design RCC and steel structure according to the relative country code. It is one of the most used software by civil and structural engineers. It helps to automate their tasks by eliminating the tedious and long procedures of manual methods.
Advantage of using StaadPro Software
1- Faster method of designing the structure.
2- Does not involve any manual calculation.
3- Suitable for almost all types of material for designing i. e. Concrete, Steel, Aluminium etc.
4- Shows accuracy in results i. e. Shear Force, Bending moment diagram for each and every beam and column of the structure. That you were doing manually.
5- Shows result for Number of reinforcement used longitudinally, Shear reinforcement.
6- Helps you to make improvement in structure, section, dimensions.
7- You can design structure for any type of load i. e. The dead load, Live load, wind load, snow load, area load, floor load etc.
8- You can design simple beam to skyscraper and analyse whether it will fail at applied load or pass.
9- You can import designs from auto CAD to staad.
10- Easy to learn.
Limitation
1- Not for brick masonry work.
2- Does not show the amount of material used.
3- Not for costing and estimating.
4- Require proper skill for typical designs. And few other.
