Structural Analysis & Design
Structural Engineering Services specialises in building STAAD.Pro models and producing code-checked member design for steel structures.
Quick answer
STAAD.Pro Analysis & Design is the process of building STAAD.Pro models and producing code-checked member design for steel structures. Structural Engineering Services delivers it worldwide on licensed STAAD.Pro, RAM Connection, Foundation Advanced to AISC 360, ASCE 7, EN 1993 and client specifications.

Why us
Whether you are a fabricator racing a shop schedule, an EPC contractor managing multiple disciplines or an owner needing an independent check, our staad.pro analysis & design team works as an extension of yours. Every deliverable passes a two-stage check by senior engineers before it leaves our office.
Deliverables
The standard structural analysis & design package. Anything outside it is priced as a named add-on, never assumed.
Analysis model & load combinations
Design calculation report
Connection design sheets
Foundation load & design report
Marked-up design drawings
Peer-review ready summaries
Compliance
Every staad.pro analysis & design package is engineered to the governing codes below and to any client or authority specification you issue with the enquiry.

Who we work with
The scope looks similar on paper. What each buyer actually needs from it does not — so the engagement is shaped around it.
Shop loaded, schedule fixed, no spare detailing capacity in house.
What you get
Design-and-detail under one roof: the analysis model, connection sheets and fabrication drawings all come from the same team, so nothing is lost in handover.
Multi-discipline scope, moving client revisions, hard contractual dates.
What you get
Discipline capacity that scales mid-project — calculation packages that pass client and authority review without a second round of comments.
Work won beyond current capacity, delivered under your own stamp.
What you get
Overflow analysis capacity under your stamp, delivered in your report template with assumptions documented well enough to defend in review.
Plant modifications, life extension and independent verification.
What you get
An independent verification of what you are being asked to buy — utilisations, tonnage and foundation loads you can challenge a contractor with.
How we deliver
The same engagement runs every staad.pro analysis & design project, whether it is a single package or a multi-year frame agreement — so you always know what happens next and who owns it.
Send what you already have — architectural or process layouts, load data, soil report, site wind/seismic parameters and the governing design code for the project location. Incomplete inputs are fine; we list the gaps rather than guess at them.
A senior engineer reviews the package and returns a priced proposal with scope, assumptions, exclusions and a milestone plan for your staad.pro analysis & design. No obligation, no placeholder pricing.
The analysis model is built in STAAD.Pro with every governing load combination enumerated — gravity, wind, seismic, crane, thermal and erection cases — then members, connections and foundations are code-checked and sized for economy, not just adequacy.
Nothing leaves our office on one pair of eyes. An independent checker verifies the technical content, then a senior engineer approves it against AISC 360 / ASCE 7 and your project specification.
You receive a calculation report a reviewing authority can follow line by line: load derivation, model assumptions, utilisation summaries, connection sheets and foundation loads, with marked-up drawings for detailing. Comments are closed within two revision cycles, and RFIs raised during fabrication or construction are answered inside 48 hours.
Scope matrix
No vague scopes and no surprise variations. This is what sits inside the base price, what you can bolt on, and what we need from you to start.
Swipe the table sideways to see every column
| Work package | Included in base scope | Optional add-on | What we need from you |
|---|---|---|---|
| Load derivation | Dead, live, wind, seismic and thermal load derivation to the project code | Site-specific response spectrum, wind-tunnel data interpretation, blast loads | Site location, exposure, importance factor and equipment load schedule |
| Analysis model | 3D analysis model, all load combinations, support and release assumptions | Non-linear staged-construction and P-delta studies, dynamic time-history | Geometry, member layout, soil bearing or pile capacity data |
| Member design | Code-checked member sizing with utilisation summary and optimisation pass | Alternative scheme comparison and tonnage-saving study | Preferred section ranges, local availability and fabrication limits |
| Connection design | Shear, moment, bracing and base-plate design with calculation sheets | Seismic-qualified and pre-qualified moment connection design | Connection philosophy and fabricator standard details |
| Foundations | Foundation loads, isolated and combined footing design, anchor-bolt check | Pile design, raft/mat FE design, dynamic machine foundation design | Geotechnical report with bearing capacity and settlement limits |
| Reporting | Design basis memo and bound calculation report, peer-review ready | Independent third-party check and authority submission support | Report template, units and approval authority requirements |

Engagement & pricing
Pick the commercial model that matches how your staad.pro analysis & design work arrives — one-off package, measurable units, or continuous capacity.
one price, whole scope
Best for
Defined staad.pro analysis & design packages where the inputs are frozen and you need budget certainty before you commit.
Scope, assumptions and exclusions written into the proposal, so variations are visible rather than invoiced quietly.
per structure / package
Best for
Discrete buildings, racks or towers where the scope can be counted and frozen at kick-off.
Priced per structure including one optimisation pass and two comment cycles.
per calculation package
Best for
Connection design, foundation design or check-only scopes bought by the sheet.
Unit rate per connection type or footing type, repeated types priced once.
per engineer month
Best for
Continuous workload, frame agreements and clients who want a named engineer who learns their standards and stays on the account.
Your engineer works on licensed STAAD.Pro inside your workflow, reporting to your lead as an extension of your team.

Get a free quoteQuality assurance
Every staad.pro analysis & design deliverable is checked by an engineer who did not produce it, then approved by a senior engineer who signs it by name.
Checked by an engineer who did not produce the work
The checker rebuilds the critical numbers rather than reading along with them, marking up every sheet of the staad.pro analysis & design package against the inputs.
Approved by name against AISC 360, ASCE 7, EN 1993
The approving engineer looks past compliance at whether the solution is buildable, economical and right for how the asset will actually be used.
Only then is the package released — with the checker and approver recorded against the revision.
