Can we specify Marine Growth above the Still Water Level in STAAD.Offshore?
No, we cannot. As per the API code clause 1.3.8, the Marine Growth is the most near the Mean Water Level but can be significant 200 feet or below the Mean Sea Level. The STAAD.Offshore is designed to take the marine growth data at and below the Still Water Level.
