 To discuss the basic STAAD commands for
use in modeling simple building structures.

 To provide an alternative design tool for


structural engineers performing structural
design works.
At the end of this presentation, the
participants are expected to:
 gain basic knowledge in modeling building
structures with the use of STAAD structural
design software
 perform design and analysis of buildings
with the use of STAAD as an alternative
design tool for structural design works.
STAAD-Structural Analysis and Design
computer software is a powerful program for
3D analysis of buildings. Developed by
Bentley Systems, Inc., it is used for building
model development, analysis, design,
visualization and verification. It provides a
full range of analysis including static, P-
Delta, pushover, response spectrum, time
history, cable, buckling and steel, concrete
and timber design.

We can change and check the unit setting either by
going to the File > Configure menu or by selecting
Configuration under Project Tasks. In the dialog that
comes up, choose the appropriate unit system you
want.
A structure can be defined as an assemblage
of elements. STAAD is capable of analyzing
and designing structures consisting of both
frame, plate/shell, and solid elements. The
following are the structure types:
1. Space
2. Plane
3. Truss
4. Floor
Node Cursor Beam Cursor
Plate Cursor Geometry Cursor
Add Beams Add 4-noded Plates
Add Surface Add 8-noded Solids
Translation Repeat Insert Node
Mirror STAAD Editor
Symbols and Labels View Whole Structure
3D Render View Viewports

JOINT LOADS:
MEMBER LOADS.
AREA LOAD, ONE-WAY and FLOOR LOADS.

Concrete Design in STAAD follows the
provisions of the ACI Code. Steel design
is based on the Manual of Steel Design
and Construction of the AISC while
timber design is based on the Timber
Construction Manual of the AITC.
Provisions of these American codes were
adopted in the NSCP.
All input data and output may be printed
in STAAD using the PRINT commands.
