STAAD Pro software training allows structural engineers to analyze and design virtually any type of structure through its flexible modeling environment, advanced features and fluent data collaboration. Flexible modeling is provided by a state-of-the-art graphical environment and the design supports over 70 international codes and over 20 U.S. codes in 7 languages. An array of advanced structural analysis and design features include nuclear certification for 10CFR Part 50, 10CFR 21, ASME NQA-1-2000, time history, and pushover analysis, and cable (linear and non-linear) analysis.
Efficiencies are gained through maintaining and streamlining current workflows with fluent data collaboration. STAAD Pro training integrates with other Bentley products such as STAAD.foundation and ProSteel and Open STAAD is provided for integration with third-party programs. Increased client base and therefore business growth can be realized in using STAAD.Pro to serve a broad spectrum of structural design projects and a global market.
