BENTLEY STAAD.Foundation Version: 4.0
Features:
Modeling
- Intuitive user-friendly graphical user interface; the workflow is categorized and arranged to flow from top to bottom
- Complete foundation project environment which includes isolated, combined, strip, pile cap and mat foundations; it connects all the modules through a global layer
- Physical mat foundation modeling environment saves time and reduces errors
- Physical loading—like point load on space, quadrilateral load, circular load, or line load allows user to simulate tank loading and wall loading
- STAAD.foundation is seamlessly integrated with STAAD.Pro to import loadings, reactions, column positions; users can even import any set of analyzed plates to design; program tracks changes made in STAAD.Pro model and can merge the changes with STAAD.foundation file
- Powerful OpenGL-based graphics helps visualize output like displacements, stress on displaced shape, combined beam stress, and entities like plates and beams in 3D for a realistic rendered view
- Automatic transfer of load from top of the pedestal to the base of the footing
- Automatic pile arrangement
- Automatic mesh generation considering holes, control regions and column lines; option for both triangular and quadrilateral plates
- Physical beam
Analysis and Design
- Supports both flexible and rigid method
- Sophisticated FEM analysis for mat foundation powered by reliable STAAD analysis engine
- Supports unlimited number of load cases and load combinations
- Physical tie beam which automatically converts to analytical members for analysis and output like BM/SF and combined stresses are presented on physical entity
Innovative and unique slab design to take full advantage of FEM analysis; it produces user-defined reinforcing zones and blocks for optimal reinforcement distribution which saves huge material Reinforcement can be laid out at any user defined direction
- Slab design along any cut line to simulate manual mat design technique
- Automatic pile arrangement using BOCA standard
- Proper handling of biaxial moment for all footing types using finite difference approach
- Pedestal design
Output
- Step-by-step detailed calculation sheet with code clauses and equations to verify output and to understand actual processes involved in design
- Layout drawing with grid marks and to-scale drawing detects overlaps and helps user to choose appropriate foundation type
- Detailed structural drawing of each footing with customizable arrow marks and labels
- DXF export of detailed and layout drawing to produce site drawing
- Base pressure and plate stress color contour
Design Codes
- United States - ACI 318-2005
- United Kingdom - BS 8110
- India - IS 456-2000
