RAM | STAAD | ADINA - STAAD.Pro 2025 (25.00.01.424) Revision History

Analysis/Design Engine: (25)

495141 - A previously documented known issue regarding the reported section displacement values not accounting for property reduction factors was, on detailed investigation, found to be a non issue.
776271 - A new static seismic load method has been added which follows the requirements from the Canadian NBCC 2020 publication. Refer also to the addition of the new response spectrum method added with this release. Note that if this is included in a model with the NBC 2020 response spectrum, then the spectrum results will be modified based on the ratio of base shears of both methods as outlined in clause 4.1.8.12.
972086 - A new dynamic response spectrum load method has been added which follows the requirements from the Canadian NBCC 2020 publication. Refer also to the addition of the new static seismic method added with this release. Note that if this is included in a model with the NBC 2020 response spectrum, then the spectrum results will be modified based on the ratio of base shears of both methods as outlined in clause 4.1.8.12.
1247427 - The processing of profiles defined as GENERAL in a User Provided Table (UPT) has been updated to ensure that the values of shear area defined are utilised. Previously the values were calculated from the other properties rather than using the values defined in the table.
1468910 - The method used to convert self weight to node loads of tapered quadrilateral plate objects for analysis, has been revised to provide a solution that is reflective of the object shape. This new method provides equivalent loading to a solid object of the same dimensions, where the plan shape is rectangular, although is less accurate the less rectangular the plan shape This was previously reported as a Known Issue.
1634632 - The processing of concrete design parameters that define the behaviour of the model to operate with the ACI 318 design codes has been updated to address an issue which would occur if the file previously included design commands for an IS 356 deign code. This would result in a memory conflict that caused the analysis and design to terminate. Note that this was previously published as a Known Issue.
1705285 - The new ASCE 2022 wind loading added in the initial STAAD.Pro 2025 release, which determined wind loading patterns for building structures has been extended to support other forms of structure.
1705288 - The Direct Analysis solution for the AISC 360 2016 and 2022 methods has been updated to incorporate an additional stiffness reductions on members with profiles that are determined as slender.
1708447 - The design of double angles to the unified AISC 360 2016 and 2022 editions has been updated to address an issue in the determination of the connected leg. The profile arrangement is set by the parameter LD (long leg) or SD (short leg) when defining the member properties. However, the determination as to which of the legs is connected to the rest of the structure is set by the LEG parameter is only used by single angles. Hence double angles were always designed using the long leg as the connected leg. The program will now use the setting of the double angle SD or LD to determine the connected leg. Note that a profile with long leg back to back connected with the short leg or a short leg back to back connected by the long leg is not supported by the code.
1708470 - The routine used to perform serviceability checks on cantilever members as part of a Eurocode 3 design has been updated to address an issue which would occur if any of the included load cases produced no displacement on the cantilever member. This would cause the overall result of the check to be zero for all the considered load cases. This effect would also occur on serviceability checks on cantilever beams designed with the following codes, Norsok, SANS, ASME NF, BS5950, AISC N690 and AISC LRFD.
1708628 - Double channels defined with the webs of the channels away from each to form a box shape, i.e. defined as a front to front double channel using the FR specification, have been designed to the unified AISC 360 design code, 2026 and 2022 editions, as though they were aligned with their webs adjacent to one another, i.e. as though specified with the D specification. This has been addressed and the correct alignment of the profile is used in the design. Note that the analysis was performed with the section properties as defined by the profile specification.
1710634 - The routine that is used to validate the alignment of plate elements has been updated to better account for offsets that have been assigned in models that also include solid elements. Previously the test for warning (i.e. the plate fails to lie on a flat plane) would use some pre-offset data and some post offset which could result in spurious warnings of badly shaped plates in the output. Now the test on the plates only uses the offset data.
1711887 - The detailed output for a double angle with slender elements when deigned to AISC 360 2016 or 2022 has been updated to include the details of the limits of the classification for flexure.
1716778 - The routine used by the Eurocode 3 steel design code EN1993-1-1 has been updated to address an issue associated with determining the section classification at the critical location. Instead of using the classification determined by the stresses at the critical location, the classification was being based on that determined at the end of the member.
1716791 - The design of wide flange members to the Eurocode 3 steel code EN 1993-1-1:2005 which have class 3 webs, but class 1 or class 2 flanges, has been updated to ensure that compression capacity is calculated with reduced section properties as per clause 6.2.2.4. This case was previously not accounted for which could result in these members being unconservatively designed.
1717898 - With models that are defined with the Z as the vertical axis, using SET Z UP, the design of wide flange members was incorrectly performed with the Eurocode 3 EN 1993-1-1:2--5 code as the section properties were considered about the incorrect axes which could result in unconservative results.
1720550 - The design of tapered wide flange sections are not supported by the Indian steel code IS 800:2007 LSD, however were being processed and a report provided which should have stated that Tapered members are not supported.
1739285 - The routine that parses the STD input file and in particular the section properties defined from a user table that does contain a referenced profile has been updated to ensure that when encountered, this is reported as an error and does not cause the analysis to crash.
1739410 - The determination of base shear for the static seismic load definition to NRC 2010 has been updated to ensure that when a site class F case is defined the limit defined in clause 4.1.8.11c is not applied.
1739748 - The steady state analysis routine has been updated to ensure that this method includes the effects of any applied moment loads as well as direct forces.
1749973 - The output for the design of wide flange, channel and rod profiles to IS 800:2007 WSD, for a member defined as "Cantilever" was printed as "General". This was only a printing issue did not affect the design.
1929912 - The reporting of lateral torsional buckling (LTB) capacities of double angle and Tee profiles designed to the AISC 360 2016 or 2022 codes has been updated to correct an issue which would be encountered when the principal axis was the local vertical axis, i.e. local Y rather than local Z. In such cases the details were reported using the properties of the local Z. Note that this would only affect the report details, but not the design.
1938339 - The routine used with an AISC 360 16 or 22 steel design in which the seismic provisions of AISC 341 are included in a TRACK 2 output, has been updated to address an issue in which the values of beta-br were incorrectly reported if the output was not specified as standard English units. Note that this is only a reporting issue as all the internal calculation are performed using values in English units.
1938987 - A memory handling issue has been addressed that would cause the analysis and design engine to crash when a model was defined without any beams objects, only plates objects AND a reference load case that includes one or more SELFWEIGHT commands. The program failed to correctly dynamically create the necessary arrays which caused conflict and the programs termination. These arrays are now correctly created and managed during the analysis thus preventing the crash situation.
1939310 - The routine that parses the Canadian static seismic load definitions NRC 2005 and 2010 have bas been updated to support definitions that exceed 150 characters (even when they are extended on multiple lines with the line continuation character). This would terminate the analysis with the error message that the line was too long to process. The definitions can now extend to 158 characters.

Analytical Workflow: (9)

1707016 - The routine that is used to determine the section properties of a User Provided Table (UPT), GENERAL profile has been updated to address issues that could occur when the 'Compute' button is pressed to calculate the section properties of a section defined by a number of profile points. If there were only a few profile points that did not create a valid shape or the button clicked repeatedly, the application would hang or terminate. These situations are now caught and managed.
1707944 - The routine that manages the Composite Deck dialog and layout has been updated to account for decks that are defined using profiles that have been selected from the Standard databases.
1708109 - The routine that is used to allow profiles defined in User Provided Tables (UPTs), has been updated to allow profiles to be renamed as well as modify their properties.
1709306 - The routine that is used to create a PMEMBER using the AutoForm tool provided in the Geometry>Physical Member ribbon, has been updated. to better identify and account for assigned BETA angles on the selected members and consistency of the member nodes whilst creating the physical members.
1723269 - The routine that previews a profile from the Standard database in the Physical Model Workflow has been updated a specific issue associated with Chinese circular hollow, PIPE sections. The preview window displays the cross section with the diameter and thickness, but due to an issue with reading the database, the thickness of the profile would not be displayed. However, if added, the profile would be correctly used in the model and analysis.
1729920 - The routine that is used to calculate the section properties of a User Provided Table (UPT) GENERAL profile that is defined using profile points has been updated to address an issue with the way the data was internally processed. The method used previously could use an incorrect conversion factor. The revised routine now ensures the conversion factor is consistent with the current UI settings.
1729943 - The routine that is used to add static seismic definitions in the Load & Definition dialog has been updated to address an issue when adding a definition for the Chinese GB50011-2010 code. This was including two additional parameters 'TG' and 'INFLUNENCE' which only apply to the response spectrum definition for the GB50011-2010 code but were being included in error when the static seismic definition was added. The inclusion of these parameters in the definition would cause any analysis to terminate reporting the invalid parameters.
1742705 - The routine that manages keeping the values displayed in the section properties 'Values' table has been updated to ensure that the data it displays is properly updated for profiles defined in a Angle, Double Angle or Pipe User Provided Table (UPT). Note that this table is provided for information only and not used by the analysis engine, hence the issue did not impact the analysis or design results.
1808973 - The method that is used by the application to display a model that has been modified by using the Parametric Model tool to create a mesh of plate objects and sub-divide any beam objects that are on or inside the boundary, has been updated. The update addresses an issue which could occur in generating the display of the model with the new meshed elements. Although the meshing would be successful, the display would fail to redraw the revised model until the window was refreshed by entering a different layout.

Documentation and Printing: (30)

884118 - The help topic TR 32.3.1 Element Load Specification-Plates, has been updated to ensure that the descriptions for options 4 and 5, correctly reflect the parameters that these options support. The references to LX and LY which are not supported have been removed.
907981 - The description of alternative starting points and use of MISING MASS with response spectrum loading when using Ritz Vectors has been updated in the user manual. In particular TR 5. SET Command Specification and G.17.3.1 Solution of the Eigenproblem.
935547 - The help topic relating to User Table Profiles, Section TR 19.8 GENERAL has been updated to clarify the meaning of the parameters relating to the local axes which swap when the model is defined with a Z UP setting.
963349 - The details provided for the South African concrete design code, SABS -0100-1 has been updated in topic D14.A.1 Design Parameters in that an additional note now clarifies the supported scope of rebar strengths. The design can only support strengths of 250, 450 and 485 MPa as the code does not provide details for use of other yield strengths.
969764 - The help topic Analysis>A. Types of Analysis> To specify a steady state analysis has been updated with clarification that at this time, the details of a steady state must be entered using the Editor as the current Modeling UI does not include a graphical UI to enter the required commands. Note, this update was added in STAAD.Pro 2024 but not documented.
1038535 - The help topic TR.25.2 Element Offset Specification has been updated to include the commands ELEMENT OFFSETS in the section General Format that describes the syntax associated with the command.
1087150 - The Eurocode 3 steel design help topic D5.A.7 Code Checking has been slightly modified to change the links for the supported profile tables to their respective topics. Note that this was included in STAAD.Pro 2024, but was not documented.
1181162 - The help topic TR.22.3 Element Ignore Stiffness has been updated to better reflect the scope of methods that are impacted by the use of this option.
1378276 - The help topic D1.F.4.6.1 Cracked Moment of Inertia
1523412 - The help topic that clarifies the profiles supported by the steel design to AISC 360 unified codes, D1.A.3 Member Properties has been updated to include the UPT GENERAL profile.
1598364 - The help topic that defines the scope of profiles supported by the design code NSZS 3404-1997, D11.A.1 Member Property Specification, has been updated to reflect the profiles that are supported which does not include TAPER profiles which was previously listed.
1701884 - The customisation offered in a user report item has been enhanced with options to group collections of conditions into logical blocks rather than only have each condition being considered separately.
1703153 - The User Report workflow has been enhanced with the option to add external images or text defined in a standard ASCII text file or rich text from a Word file or other RTF file.
1705586 - The Product Validation Certificate has been updated to confirm that the registered address of QA&R program has been relocated to the head office in Exton.
1705594 - The What's New references to the released versions of STAAD.Pro have been modified to correctly reflect the release that they are referencing.
1705907 - The method used to record a diagram as a picture to include in a User Report has been updated to address an issue which the scale of the image was being reduced to make it unviable as a report item. Now the images created when taken as a picture are scaled to ensure they make reasonable entries into a user report.
1706541 - The details of the flexural buckling design to AISC 360 2016 or 2022 of double angle or Tee profiles in which the major axis is the local Y axis, has been updated to address an issue in which the profile properties for the local Z axis were being used. Note however, this was only in the report details, but did not impact the design itself.
1707427 - The routine used to create pictures for User Reports and to copy structure views to the clipboard has been updated to better handle the labels that have been included in the image which was caused by the scale of the image that was created.
1715861 - The OpenSTAAD documentation for the functions GetMinMaxBendingMoment() and GetMinMaxShearForce() have been updated to clarify that the parameter strDir is a string rather than integer.
1720131 - The description of how the masses are considered in the example files 'US-11 Response Spectrum Analysis of a frame' and 'UK-11 Response Spectrum Analysis of a frame' have been updated to clarify that local design codes may require specific masses to be considered, although in these examples, only the self weight and concentrated weights are being considered.
1722154 - The User Report workflow has been updated to address an effect that could be triggered when including a steel design Utilization Ratio table in the report. If the report was customised, by say redefined a required set of columns and assigning them preferred widths, then the spacing of the chosen columns would fail to follow the requirement and adopt a random spacing. This issue has been addressed so the spacing defined will be followed in the report.
1722728 - The details provides for the command SET MASS in the help topic TR.5 SET Command Specification, have been updated to provide details as to what options are available and the default if not specified.
1724204 - The routine that processes and reports the torsion values in the Beam End Forces table in the User Reports has been updated to address an issues associated mapping the analysis output unit to the report unit. In some cases the torsion values would not be reported in the unit displayed in the column header.
1727437 - The details of the OpenSTAAD functions AssignDesignCommand() and 'AssignDesignGroup() have been updated to add clarify as to the functionality and scope of these functions. Additional examples provided.
1729441 - The method that is used to hold the data for the company logo image for a User Report has been updated to provide a better quality rendition when printing the report.
1739377 - The units used to display and report the beta angle in a User Report has been updated to ensure that this is always reported in degrees and not in the display unit of Force unit>Rotation, which is used to report angular rotation of nodes.
1742884 - The routine that is used to display a table that included a column with a blank column heading such as the 'Beam Max Moments', 'Beam Max Shear Forces', etc, has been updated to prevent the column being automatically widened.
1756723 - The help topic TR.26.1 Define Material has been updated to clarify the limit of materials that can be included in a model and for which memory is reserved, which is determined by the number of beams, plates and solids. In other words if the model has 10 beams and no plates or solids defined, then the file should contain no more than 10 material definitions
1786026 - The output report of members designed to the US cold formed steel code, AISI 2016 have been updated to include the value of Lb used in the design which was previously always reported as zero, although used as assigned by the parameters UNT and/or UNB.
1941940 - The requirements of including a suitable analysis command and CHANGE after each primary load case with a response spectrum command which includes the IMR option, has been added in the details of code based response spectrum command topics. Previously this was only included as a statement in the standard custom response spectrum help topic.

Generic GUI Updates: (11)

871154 - The early access feature (previously referred to as a Technical Preview), Cloud Analysis, has been enhanced to support the inclusion of dynamic loading when using the accelerated analysis method, i.e. sub-model creation. This means that models that define modal, seismic, response spectrum or time history loading, can now be used in a sub-model solution. Note that this solution is achieved by inserting all load cases dependant on the eigen solution into the first sub-model and all the remaining cases are then divided into the other sub-models.
1587654 - A number of third party components used in STAAD.Pro in have been updated including Eyeshot, Stingray, QVision and SQLite, to address potential vulnerabilities.
1708762 - The legacy Mexican profile database has been updated to remove details from the database that are not available in a published document, but will now instead use values calculated by the application using the geometric data that is used to define the profile shape.
1710262 - The display of section profile details in the Member Properties dialog (aka the Member Query dialog), has been updated to align with the settings defined in the Display Options>Section Units.
1718392 - A modification introduced in STAAD.Pro 2025 to reduce the time taken to close STAAD.Pro introduced a side effect that affected the way labels and settings would be saved. This means the settings and labels would revert to default when the program was reopened. This issue has been addressed such that the settings and labels are now successfully saved when closing the program.
1718425 - The configuration files used to set the design requirements with the Japanese localised version of STAAD.Pro have been updated to address an issue with the encoding used that prevented the correct display of the Design Parameters and Design Commands dialogs.
1720594 - The method used to display the arrows on plate and solid surface area loads has been updated to better identify the correct direction for the arrow head which although would be initially displayed correctly, could be affected by minor changes in the model. Note that this issue only affected the display of the arrow heads in the GUI and had no impact in the analysis.
1722330 - Two minor typos used in the descriptions of the Mexican standard database have been addressed and the source of this and all other Standard Databases included in the installation have been added to the user documentation. Additionally the setting LIPANGLE has been set to a default of 90 degrees for profiles defined using the cold-formed Zee shape.
1741597 - For a number of years now, users have been informed of new updated versions of their installed STAAD.Pro in the Connection Client app; which is displayed when Windows starts or when a Bentley application, including STAAD.Pro, is launched. This service only informed users of the availability of minor updated versions. However, with this release, this service has been further developed such that now, users will also be notified by the Connection Client when then a new major release of STAAD.Pro is available.
1744456 - An early access feature (previously referred to as Technical Preview feature) has been added to act as a AI assistant. This implementation of the Bentley Copilot allows users to obtain AI responses to questions based on the STAAD.Pro documentation. Note that in order to use this service, you will be required to accept the terms and conditions relating to the AI service.
1746131 - The values of plastic moduli included in the legacy European UPN channel database have been updated to align with the values reported in the standard database; determined using first principles and the section dimensions.

Interoperability: (5)

1639328 - The routine that performs the export of a STAAD.Pro model to ADINA has been enhanced so that it now include details of inclined support definitions.
1749184 - The routine that is used by the PipeLink analytical ISM interop routine that processes an ISM repository has been updated to address an issue that would occur if in the creation of the ISM repository, the Section Property Catalog server is not running. This would typically be started during the Windows start up process and resides locally. However, if it is not running then attempting to create a repository would encounter a failure which would lock without completing the process and have to be forcibly terminated with Task Manager. Now the service is first confirmed as running before any export is initiated.
1755297 - The routine that is used in the Physical Modelling workflow to import a model using the iTwin Services tool has been updated to handle a situation where the material assigned to one or more objects is undefined. This was casing the application to crash. Now, a new material will be created called 'Unnamed Material' as a placeholder and a warning provided. The material contains no data and so for any analysis to take place, a suitable material will need to be defined and assigned to these objects.
1921956 - The routine used to export STAAD.Pro models to ADINA using the TIME FUNCTION method has been updated to address an issue that would occur when a load case includes SELF WEIGHT. This would introduce an addition of data rows with redundant LCASE commands. This condition is now identified and the redundant text not included in the generated IN file.
1922029 - The export to ADINA has been updated to address an issue which would arise if the model attempted to create zones with both direct forces and moments with different numbers of items and the arrays for these were not correctly sized and thus during the export would result in accessing invalid array items and resulted in the application crashing.

OpenSTAAD: (6)

1624262 - A new OpenSTAAD function, ExportModelToADINA() has been added which provides the ability to programmatically generate an ADINA input file (*.IN) from a given STAAD.Pro model.
1703768 - The function GetStandardSectionName() has been updated to ensure that the profile name returned by the function is not modified by having any parameter assigned to the profile.
1706564 - The functions ClearSolidSelection(), ClearNodeSelection(), ClearMemberSelection(), and ClearPlateSelection() have been updated with return values. Additionally, the details of the functions GetSolidIncidence(), GetMemberIncidence(), and GetPlateIncidence() have been updated to clarify the meaning and values of the function return values.
1714123 - The OpenSTAAD functions GetInputUnitForLength() and GetInputUnitForForce() have been updated to ensure that they return the value of unit as per the documentation, instead of a Boolean. Note also that the documentation has been corrected to clarify that the parameter strUnit is an output rather than input parameter.
1715233 - The function SetParametericSurfaceUniqueID () return value has been updated with a correction in the return value and additional examples included in the documentation for the functions SetParametericSurfaceUniqueID() and GetParametericaSurfaceUniqueID()
1747310 - The OpenSTAAD routine that allows a model to be solved with the function AnalyzeEx () has been updated address an issue which can be encountered when using the method to hide the interface, i.e. when the parameter varHidden is set to 1. This has been updated and is now handled by using a separate thread.

Other Workflows: (19)

1586200 - The Chinese Steel Design Workflow now supports the design of steel structures to meet the fire design requirements of GB51249-2017 with enhanced seismic analysis control which was previously provided as a technical preview feature in the earlier STAAD.Pro 2025 release.
1639248 - The range of connection templates that are provided in the Steel Connection Design workflow have been extended with additional Canadian bearing pad connections, Australian horizontal bracing connections and enhanced web side plate design and updates for the US base plate designs and the European connections updated to include details of slip resistance.
1696124 - The default settings on the Steel Connection Deign workflow have been updated to ensure that all standard and user defined section profiles are included as default. This can increase the time that some connections take to solve, but this ensures that connections that are supported will be checked. To improve the performance of some connection designs, the connection configuration can be modified by unchecking the databases that are not to be used from the Connection Settings dialog.
1702482 - The Chinese Steel Design routine used to design taper profiles, performs checks at 11 locations along a member, but the profile dimensions used at a given location were measured from the wrong end. This was reported in the design output. This has been corrected and now the profile dimensions are correctly determined by measuring from the same end as the forces.
1706610 - The report generation routine in the Chinese Steel Design workflow has been updated to address an issue which would cause a message box to be displayed reporting that the report could not obtain the value for 'Sect.Top.Compressed' due to missing equations from GB51249 which have been reintroduced.
1708993 - The Chinese Steel Design Workflow offers designers a tool to query the model or selected members to obtain a summary of profile lengths and weights reported in metres and Kilograms respectively. However, the conversion factor for determining the weights used the incorrect conversion factor and under reported the weight by a factor of 1000. This has been corrected.
1710000 - The method used to launch MicroStation from within the Steel AutoDrafter workflow with the current drawing has been updated to align with the current method included in MicroStation to perform this action.
1715137 - The routine used in the Chinese Steel Design workflow that process the 'Flange Slenderness' settings has been updated to ensure when it is set to use clause 7.3.1, this setting is observed. Additionally a check is added to ensure that in the Design Load Case selection, at least one load case has been selected.
1719253 - The routine that allows connection design reports to be output to a Word document, in the Steel Connection Design workflow, has been updated to create the document as a .docx rather than .doc file.
1734983 - The detailed report for a member designed in the Chinese Steel Design workflow has been updated to ensure that the value of α₀ will be shown only once for in the section Column Strength and Stability. Previously this would have been reported multiple times which is unnecessary.
1741069 - The routine that is used to modify wind load definitions has been updated to address an issue with models that contained multiple definitions to the Chinese GB50009-2012 code. Previously edits from the initial definition would not be saved in the STD file. This has been resolved and any edits for any of the Chinese wind load definitions will be saved..
1744632 - The method used to display a tooltip on objects when viewed in the Chinese Steel Design workflow has been updated to ensure that the view is assigned the current load case. Previously if the Tooltip included the options to display Forces or analytical steel design ratio, then this could have caused the application to crash.
1745990 - The routine used for designing Hat profiles in the GB50018 Chinese Steel Design module has been updated to correct the orientation of the profile and ensure the values from the appropriate axes are used.
1755461 - The error message reported when attempting to assign connection types to members that invalid assigned section profiles and materials has been updated to help clarify the cause of the rejected connection.
1824383 - The Steel Connection Design routine that reloads connections has been updated to ensure that the details of braces defined as part of a baseplate connection are properly processed. Previously the data did not get correctly reloaded resulting in the brace members having to be manually re-added in the connection pad.
1873983 - The method used by the Steel Connection Deign workflow to reload connections after a model has been changed and new results generated by a new analysis has been updated. The new method addresses an issue where the number of connections between two internal systems could differ resulting in attempting to obtain data that did not exist and thus terminate the program.
1922957 - The design of members to the Chinese steel design code GB 51249 has been updated to address an issue with the critical temperature method.
1924319 - The method used to reload connections in the Steel Connection Design workflow has been updated to address an issue in which modifications of the model after connections have been created would only partially remove details of invalid connections such that when entering the workflow, would cause the application to crash.
1933008 - The versions of STAAD Foundation Advanced (SFA) and RCDC, which are the solutions that lie behind the Foundation Design and Advanced Concrete Design workflows, have been updated. SFA is updated to (25.00.01.***) and RCDC is updated to (23.00.08.***)

Physical Model Workflow: (1)

1609459 - The routine that processes seismic load definitions has been updated to address an issue in which the parameters of ACC and DEC would be added to the STD file despite the option to included them indicated by check boxes in the dialog were not set.

Post Processing Workflow: (6)

1669952 - The routine that provides the data from a steel member design to IS800:2007 to display in the Member Properties dialog (also known as Member Query) has been updated to format the values of capacities including compression and shear such that they better reflect the values reported in the output file.
1707660 - The method used to dynamically scale the various diagrams in the model view (using the CTRL key + mouse wheel) has been updated to better handle scaling of loading and corrected a typo when the MX 'Torsion' scale is modified with this method.
1744633 - The routine that displays analysis result diagrams on the structure view has been extended to now also support displaying torsion diagrams on the Envelope case.
1744634 - The options offered to annotate the force diagrams on a structure view has been extended to include Torsion values. Similar to the options for bending and shear forces, these can be assigned to the Ends, Maximum or Mid Point on the specified range.
1745160 - The default display when entering the Utilization layout has been updated to address an issue in which the Structure View did not automatically display the 'Design Results' using the 'Actual Ratio'. This has been corrected.
1756761 - The details of a member check to the AISI 2016 reported in the Member Properties dialog (also known as the Member Query dialog), has been updated to ensure that the details of the critical design moments MY and MZ are included. Although the values were reported in the output file and used in the design, the dialog reported these as 0.

1402828 - The Standard database schema has been expanded to now support three new section shapes, Tee, Solid Rectangle, and Solid Circular. This means databases can be created with tables that are defined by these new shapes. Only the geometric dimensions are required, the section properties are calculated internally by the program if not provided, but can be provided as values for the analysis to use.
1587653 - This build has been produced to be suitable for use with QA&R subscribers.
1739284 - The routine used in the Shape Editor module has been updated to address an issue when considering multiple shapes that shared a common boundary. In some cases, a shared boundary was treated as an overlap and would result in the calculations being incomplete. This situation has been addressed by introducing a gap of 1e-8 between objects to prevent the overlap being triggered.
1808816 - The DXF import routine used in the Shape Editor has been updated such that if the file includes multiple profiles each one will be checked such that if any overlap partially or fully, another boundary, then the shape is defined with no material, i.e. a hole.
1923215 - The routine used to manage editing the European load combination in the Automatic Load Combinations module has been updated to address an issue in which would prevent any modification of the psi values, shown in the configuration sheet.
