As far as I have tried U cannot accurately model cable and/or suspension bridges in StaadPro. For analysis Use SAP v12 or later or it would be best if Midas/Civil is available to you. However for the design of various bridge components u have to use various other
software/ worksheet or do it mannually because for each of them demand/ capacity ratio has to be checked
