I would like to model a mat foundation in STAAD Foundation Advanced using the loads/reactions from the model in STAAD.Pro CE. I exported all the reactions from STAAD.Pro which came from repeat load cases that functioned as the load combinations for design. When I go to STAAD Foundation Advanced I realize that I cannot add additional loads to these load cases. Should I just export the primary load cases only and then generate load combinations within SFA? Can SFA generate load combinations including seismic in each direction, but with eccentricity in one direction only?
It seems like I have found the solution to my problem with SFA crashing. It appears like you can't export the reactions from STAAD.Pro CE more than once even if you want to redo the foundation design. The only way I could get around it was to delete the backup foundation file and all the other foundation files (file name_foundation) that was in the STAAD.Pro CE directory. Once I did this I could export the reactions again.
As far as the Geometry tab is concerned, the menu option Tools > Save Picture is currently the only option that allows one to save the picture as a bmp file which can then be printed or included as part of a document. Drawings and calculation sheets have their own printing options but for the graphics within Geometry, this is pretty much the only option. I agree that this is possibly not the best of options. However the reporting of STAAD.foundation Advanced is going to change. It is going to be based on a totally different technology which would allow a lot more options and flexibility.
I see from a previous post ( -staad/f/ram-staad-forum/199690/sfa-isolated-foundation-doesn-t-design/596308#596308) that the option to reduce this area was removed because ACI 318 removed those clauses from later versions.
Many of the videos on this page are based on the loads on the foundation either being already available in an existing SFA model, or being created using the following workflow. The foundation is created first, and the loads are then applied on the foundation. Since these loads represent the forces and moments that are acting on the foundation from the columns of the superstructure model, the position of the columns and those forces and moments loads acting through them too have to be specified as part of the model generation process. Thus, the data that the user needs to enter is not just the details of the foundation itself, but also of the columns and the loads transmitted by them.
However, there is another workflow possible that can significantly reduce the amount of data that the engineer needs to enter. In the majority of cases, engineers usually create a superstructure model first, analyze it, and once it is decided that it is more or less final, they then create the foundation model to resist the forces and moments that are transmitted to the foundations by the columns or walls of the lowest level of the superstructure. In the superstructure model, the foundations may have been idealized as fixed or pinned or spring supports. Thus, the loads for which the foundations need to be designed are already available in the form of support reactions of that superstructure model.
So, to the engineer who wants to learn SFA, our suggestion would be this. If you have a superstructure model as described in the second workflow, first watch videos 18 and 19. Then watch the remaining videos (1 thru 17). You may be able to skip a number of steps involving the column geometry and loads on the foundation and focus just on the design aspects.

STAAD Foundation Advanced leverages 3D FEM analysis and employs an innovative technique to optimize reinforcement requirements.
I am designing a combined shallow footing for a four column tower in Staad Foundation Advanced V8.3.0.20 but I'm having some difficulty. The tower has four columns with identical base plate elevations. Each column will have a 3.67' high pedestal that extends 0.67' above grade elevation. I used Staad.Pro to create the structural model and imported the load cases into SFA. Since my staad load combinations were imported as individual load cases, I ended up deleting them and using SFA's "Generate Load Combination" feature and then slightly modified the combos. The mat self weight was applied to the Dead Load case only and all of the job relevant inputs where added. Since the loading is nothing exorbitant - the max LRFD compressive force is appx. 48 kips and the max uplift is 28 kips - I expected this footing to be around 14' wide x 14' long x 2' thick with No. 6 bars @ inches (both directions, top/bot).
The latest version of Staad.foundation advanced (7.1 or earlier) has an issue with the selfweight command for Mat Foundations. The selfweight for MAT foundations is getting doubled, or in other words the program is automatically assigning 2 times the selfweight of the mat. I was able to detect this as there were a number of warnings during the analysis of the mat and I had to go in to the installation folder of the program to locate a staad.pro file created by Staad.foundation. When I opened this I find that the program has automatically assigned increased selfweight to the entire mat.
Many thanks for your response. Attached please find a zip file with the sfa file. I have purposely provided increased self weight for ultimate load cases in the attached file. However, on completion of analysis, if you look at the staad file in the staad foundation folder you will notice that the selfweight value assumed by the program is twice the actual weight (for both ultimate and serviceability cases) . This has been recognized as an issue by one of your technical support guys in India (Sanjib Das).
I am using Staad Foundation Advanced. While using general foundation mode and creating new job using job setup option the software goes blank(its not responding). Even after repeated clicks on "Create a New Job" option the application is neither starting a new nor giving any error message. The installation process was smooth with no errors or warnings.
Practical Foundation Design with STAAD Foundation Advanced follows a tutorial-based approach to help readers understand the fundamentals of foundation design steps and processes. To help readers learn STAAD Foundation Advanced quickly, the book provides detailed descriptions of all inputs and explanations of outputs.
I'm trying to analyze a mat foundation by importing load cases from STAAD Pro but I get "Out of memory" message at the end of the run. I know that in STAAD Pro V8i I can add a line of code in the STAAD editor at the top when having memory issues, "MEMORY 90". I tried to attach the STAAD Pro and STAAD Foundation files I'm using along with a word document of the message and versions of both software I am using but I can not see if they actually got attached.
