What is STAAD.Pro Advanced?

STAAD.Pro Advanced includes all the modeling, analysis, design and interoperability capabilities of STAAD.Pro, but layers on more advanced analysis, as well as reinforced concrete design and detailing features.

• Nonlinear geometric and cable analysis
• Eigen buckling analysis
• Floor spectrum analysis due to time history loading (seismic design)
• Steady state dynamic performance for vibration design
• Pushover analysis
• Design and detailing of reinforced concrete beams, columns, footings, pile caps, walls, and slabs
• Design reports, material takeoffs, and bill of quantity
• Automated reinforcing drawings, details, and schedules, with customizable settings

PRODUCT DATA SHEETSTAAD.Pro Advanced 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 can analyze any structure exposed to static, dynamic, wind, earthquake, thermal, and moving loads. STAAD.Pro Advanced provides structural analysis and design for any type of project, including towers, buildings, culverts, plants, bridges, stadiums, and marine structures.

ANALYSIS AND DESIGN

The software extends the scope of the standard version of STAAD.Pro with linear static, response spectra, time history, cable, imperfection, pushover, and nonlinear analyses. STAAD.Pro Advanced provides your engineering team with a scalable solution that will meet the demands of your project. STAAD.Pro Advanced reduces the resource hours required to properly load your structure by automating the forces caused by gravity, wind, earthquakes, vehicles, or vibration. No matter what material you are using or in what country you are designing your structure, STAAD.Pro Advanced accommodates your design and loading requirements, including for
United States, European, Nordic, Indian, and Asian codes. Special codes, such as AASHTO, ASCE 52, IBC, and the U.S. aluminum code, are accommodated at no extra cost. With an unparalleled quality-assurance program, open architecture for customization, and a 25-year track record – including being used on such projects as MCI Stadium in Washington D.C., Wimbledon Court No.1 in London, and the tallest transmission tower in Asia – STAAD.Pro Advanced is the perfect structural engineering workhorse for your design firm.

EXTREMELY FLEXIBLE MODELING ENVIRONMENT

The power of STAAD.Pro Advanced is in an interface based on the latest programming technology. Along with tutorial movies, the application includes online help and dozens of examples to illustrate solutions to commonly raised modeling, analysis, and design issues. Eighty percent of new users learn to efficiently use STAAD.Pro Advanced in less than two hours.

BROAD SPECTRA OF DESIGN CODES

Steel, concrete, timber, and aluminum design codes from around the world, including a number of historical codes, mean that you can take STAAD.Pro Advanced to wherever your company works. INTEROPERABILITY AND OPEN ARCHITECTURE STAAD.Pro Advanced is more than an analysis and design application. From simple importing of CAD models to creating custom links and developing third-party applications using OpenSTAAD™ , STAAD.Pro Advanced can be the heart of your structural solution. When integrated with ProjectWise®, your STAAD.Pro models can be efficiently managed with the leading project collaboration system. With iTwin ® Analytical Synchronizer integration, models become part of an BIM workflow with products such as ProStructures ®
, OpenBuildings ® Designer, Revit, and Tekla.

QUALITY ASSURANCE

STAAD.Pro and STAAD.Pro Advanced undergo the most demanding quality and testing programs. Our procedures follow the requirements of 10CFR Part 50 Appendix B, 10CFR Part 21, and ASME NQA-1 so that STAAD.Pro and STAAD.Pro Advanced have been approved for use on the design of nuclear power installations.
