STAAD.foundation is a comprehensive foundation design program which offers the ability to model complex or simple footings such as isolated footings, combined footings, strip footings, pile caps and mat foundations. It provides a streamlined workflow through its integration with STAAD.Pro and can also be used as a stand-alone program.
Powerful modeling includes a physical modeling system, a toolkit mode, automatic pile arrangement, and FEM which allows complex or simple layouts. The foundation toolkit mode was introduced to address the needs of special footing types like drilled pier and dead man anchor guy foundations.
Efficient design and documentation is realized through its plant-specific design tools, multiple design codes with U.S. and metric bar sizes, design optimization, and automatic drawing generation. The plant-specific tools include vertical vessel foundations (octagonal shape) and heat exchanger foundations.
Productivity is increased through the ability to utilize the structural model with the foundation model through the integration with STAAD.Pro. Changes made in the STAAD.Pro model are tracked and can be merged automatically with the foundation model. View the integrated video.
