Analyze and Design-International Standards: Design a wide variety of foundations, from simple spread footings to complicated mats and specialized machinery pads, with the extensive support of international standards.
Loads And Load Combinations: Apply wind and seismic loads using built-in load generators. Calculate loading parameters automatically. Combine lateral load cases with gravity and other types of loads using load combination generators.
Machine Vibration And Settlement: Analyze machine block foundations for dynamic loading. Leverage wizard-based input for fast finite element analysis (FEA) solids model creation, various loading, and soil spring options.
Detail and Document - Reinforced Concrete Drawings: STAAD Foundation Advanced generates drawings for plan, elevation, and sectional views with rebar marks. Schedule drawings provide a summary table for design results. General arrangement drawings include all the footings designed in the project, with grid lines and grid marks that help identify interference. Drawings can be exported to DXF or DWG formats.
Generate Structural Design Documentation: Engineers can produce reports – summaries and detailed calculation sheets – for foundation types such as isolated, combined, pile caps, and foundations for plant equipment. For mat foundations, a powerful reporting system publishes the details of key analysis results, stability checks, detailed and summary reports for concrete design operations, bills of materials, general arrangements, and reinforcement detailing drawings available for ACI 318 codes.
