There is no facility to model dampers in STAAD.Pro. The closest approximation that I can think of is to model these using beam elements and try to assign a material/cross sectional property to these...

Hi Darius – thank you for responding. The settings that are reverting to default seem to generally be custom colour settings for structural elements (plates, beams, solids etc.) and loads. Base units...

Instead of an equivalent static analysis do a response spectrum analysis. Turn on the SAVE option in response spectrum loading input, which would save the joint accelerations in a file with...

Avoid having multiple structures in the same model particularly when using seismic analysis or any form of dynamic analysis. Analyze these models individually.

You are correct. The settings are not saved across sessions in STAAD.Pro 20.07.11.50. What that means is, when you close out of the model, as long as you are inside the same STAAD.Pro session, you can...

I took a quick look at your model. Apparently there are no instabilities. There are no large displacements and the equilibrium checks are satisfied. So I do not see any major modeling issues.
