RE: Spring Damping in Soil
Hi Charlie : As of now in STAAD.Pro there is no option to define rotational spring damping. However this is in our list of items to be developed in the future. The id# is 384565.

The moment in this case is the dynamic force that is acting on the mass and need not be considered in the mass modeling. For mass modeling you should only consider items like dead load and other...

thanks, correct staad must provide rotational spring damping. it would make the software even more powerful.
