STAAD PRO –An Overview

Use of Computer in Structural Designing of Buildings

In ear lier periods say in s ixt ies, engineering calculat ions were done b y

slide ru les. Then in sevent ies, came the era of calculators, which

replaced s lide rules completely. The calculators are ver y much in

vogue these days but to aid the structural engineer have come

computers which are high-speed calculators and much more. When

similar members (say, s labs, beams columns, footings) are to be

designed, relevant computer programs can be used to get more accurate

methods which were earlier diff icu lt and time-consuming to use

manually. For example, frames under horizontal loads were ana lysed by

portal o r cant ilever methods manually. These gave only approximate

resu lts and we had to be sat isfied with them. But now, computer can be

used effect ively to get accurate results.

Computer-Aided Analysis & Design:-

Computers have recent ly been brought in to aid structu ral

designers. These machines are as effective as the ava ilab le software

(i.e. computer p rograms). Programs are ava ilab le for design o f s labs,

simply supported and continuous beams. Co lumns under biaxia l

bend ing, isolated foo tings, combined footings and rafts. There are also

ava ilab le 2-D plane frame programs, gr ids, reta ining walls, etc. not

only all the ava ilable p rograms ma y be to the liking o f a designer. The

assumptions made in the development o f some programs may no t be

acceptable to the structural designer and in one case, it was found that

the column program purchased was valid only for short columns and

not for long columns, although at the time of purchase, it was cla imed

to be valid for both short and ling co lumns.

In practice, cont inuous beams, frame analysis under horizonta l

loads are a lmost alwa ys solved by a computer. Sometimes, an building

is divided into frames in both the pr inc ipal directions. All the frames

with the vert ical and the horizo ntal loads are pu t in the computer and

the solut ion is got which includes the complete design of beams at al l

the floor levels. Column loads are then assembled manually. Column

design under biaxial bending at all levels is done by a computer

program.

A ver y powerful program STAAD Pro is a lso availab le in the

market which can be used fo r 3-D analysis of a building as a whole. It

is usefu l for analysis and design of multi-storied build ings. We may



consider the followings methods of approach in order to tap the fu ll

capacit y of STAAD Pro software.

Using STAAD Pro for analysis & design the Building as a whole

Steps in design

1. Manual design of slabs, stair s, cha jjas, non-gr id beams, etc.

2. Preparing data for STAA PRO program at a ll leve ls i.e

generat ion of model, load intensit ies at all floors and wall load

as u.d.l, support conditions, material p roperties etc

3. Using computer, feeding data and getting the ou t-put. It gives

beam and co lumn design at all leve ls and it also gives co lumn

loads for design o f foundatio ns. .

4 . Manual design of footings.

5. Preparation of structu ral drawings with foundations and upwards

by AUTOCAD or by manual.

After analysis and design by STAAD Pro so ftware we have to note

down area of steel for column at various levels & grouping is done

accordingly.

For beams be have to do detailing as per SP-34 by noting down the

main reinforcement & Shear reinforcement & at var ious sect ion floor

wise.

The drawings are prepared floor-wise, start ing from the

foundation, p linth beam and upwards and issued to the s ite for

execution in the same order.
