What's New Josh Beaulieu - Marketing & Sales
Tens of thousands of structural engineers are finding out what is now possible with STAAD.Pro 2004, including powerful structural objects like open web joists, castellated beams, floors, slabs and shear walls. Assembling and properly loading models can be done in hours instead of what was previously days. Engineers address all their design needs within one single model including connections, mat foundations, base plates and more. A dominant strength of STAAD is its versatility: analyzing and designing everything from low and high-rise buildings to foundations to petrochemical plants to towers to bridges. And for engineers still using any version newer than STAAD III, the 2004 and 2005 upgrades are inclusive with a 12-month support/maintenance agreement with Dowco. For Tekla Structures users, the Analysis & Design module (a fully integrated version of STAAD.Pro) is now the next wave of what is possible; allowing detailers, fabricators, and engineers to do everything in one automatically-updating 3D model. To help STAAD.Pro and A&D users get fully trained up to speed quickly, or as a refresher course, REI has recently released a 5-DVD STAAD Training set. So far every engineer who has reviewed it, including our head of STAAD support Joselito Manrique, is raving about it. It includes a full 8 hours of content from the 2-day STAAD seminar, for $425 CDN.

As with Tekla Structures, the newest version of STAAD.Pro structural engineering software continues to make strides in the areas of integration, ease of use, and its library of features. Our promotion this summer was a considerable success, but we know it to be just the tip of the iceberg. With the new features, the inclusion of Canadian codes for steel and concrete, and our knowledgeable and dedicated support staff – we anticipate STAAD’s continued growth in the Canadian market. And we are pleased to now be the “one point of contact” for all Tekla Structures and STAAD.Pro product, support, and training needs in Canada.
