I have got a large number of load cases and combinations in my STAAD Foundation Advanced model. Is there a way for me to quickly set the Load Case Type data to Service and Ultimate for these load cases and combinations

In STAAD Foundation Advanced Connect Edition Update 2 ( 8.2.0.30) and up, you can easily set the Load Case Type for a batch of load cases or combinations.

The process is listed below

  1. Select the load cases or combinations. You may use SHFT + mouse click or CTRL + mouse click to select the cases.
  2. With multiple load cases ( or load combinations) selected, you will be given the option to set the Load Case Type ( or Load Combination type).
  3. Choose the appropriate radio button and press Batch Apply as shown in the next picture

The Load Case Type for all selected load cases ( or combinations ) will be set accordingly.
