Result Verification

These powerful graphics based facilities provide on-screen result verification and customized report generation. User friendly navigation and organization of data helps you get the information you need with a few simple clicks. Point and click on a member to obtain all the information on its Geometry, Cross-sectional properties, Forces, Moments, Displacements, etc. Even design information such as Allowable Stresses, Governing Code Criteria, Reinforcement layout, are available. Sort and Search based on required criteria to create customized reports. Arrange and rank the data based on Forces, Moments, Displacements, Stresses, etc., in ascending or descending order. Customize reports to include only the information you want, where you want it, including your company logo.

  • Step-by-step hand calculations including all formulae, intermediate results, and code clauses for steel design
  • Custom-defined tool tips for displaying pre- and post-processing data for any entity with mouse roll over
  • Export saved pictures into any raster format (BMP, JPEG, TIFF, etc.) and in any size
  • New plate and solid element query box through double-clicking
  • New slider control for member query box to see shear, bending and deflection values at any point along the beam
  • New super query box to change any beam/element attribute on the fly (i.e. double click on a support or load diagram)
  • Table of contents for STAAD viewer to directly go to different parts of the ANL file
  • Dynamic Query feature to create customized queries for data mining STAAD output (i.e. Find All Nodal Deflections < 0.06 inches in the Global Y Whose Z Coordinate is > 20 ft. for Load Cases > Load Case 5)
  • Textual and graphical results verification and display
  • Deflected and Mode Shapes based on Joint/Section Displacement for user-specified loading or mode shape number
  • Stress contours plotted on displaced shape and in line countour mode
  • Bending Moment and Shear Force diagrams of individual members as well as the entire structure (through single double-click)
  • User-controlled Scale factors for Deflected or mode shapes
  • Member Axial Force contour to identify range of tension and compression
  • Force/Moment Envelope plots as max/min for all loads
  • Stress contour plots
  • Code Performance Plots for Steel Design
  • Powerful on-line Query for analysis/design results
  • On-screen Report generation with Sort/Search
  • Animation of Deflected/Mode shapes, Stress Contours
  • VRML (Virtual Reality Modeling Language) export feature enables “Walk-through” Model verification using any standard Web Browser
  • Customizable Color to Display Unity Check / Utilization Ratio
