STAAD is one of the most widely used design software and structural analysis solutions globally, offering comprehensive solutions for the analysis & design of various structures.
DOCAN specialises in structural analysis and design, and STAAD is one of many industry-leading software solutions that we incorporate into our consultancy projects. Working with clients on their structural engineering activities, we can leverage the powerful tools of STAAD to solve the most complex design and analysis problems for any structure.
Why we use STAAD
Structural engineering projects call for complete precision, efficiency and innovation. Designing for structural stability and feasibility is complex with no room for error, and the STAAD software suite comprises multiple modules that cater to all different aspects of structural analysis and design.
At DOCAN, we work with a wide range of clients across various industries. Whether we’re working on a conventional or advanced structure, in a greenfield or brownfield site, we may strategically implement the use of STAAD to increase the efficiency and accuracy of our services.
Before we design a structure, we must understand how different components and materials interact. Drawing on the software’s structural analysis tools, we can accurately assess the behaviour of diverse structures under various loads. From there, we can utilise its structural design capabilities to optimise the structure for feasibility, safety and functionality.
Designing for structural safety and durability is critical to what we do, so by combining our in-house expertise and experience with the market-leading tools at our disposal, we can deliver a competitive, reliable and cost-effective solution to our clients.
