STAAD to Robot 2014

[MARIOSZISSIMATOS5169]

Hello,

I am trying to open a Staad Pro V8 (Select Series 4) file into Robot 2014 and although I get a "conversion successful" message, the .str file only has strings of numbers and letter and cannot be opened in Robot.

Look at staad file. If it contains TABLEs it means it is too new format and Robot can not open it. If not - send me staad file to look at.

Staad file containes "TABLE ST" & "UPTABLE" commands for the section profiles. Are these not compatible?

Yes, too new format. Sorry.

After looking around, it appears this has not been updated yet.

I'm assuming Robot still cannot open a .std file properly? Even one from 2007?

I do see the word TABLE in the .std file.

As a work-around, what is the best way to bring in a STAAD file? 

We have STAAD, so should I export it from STAAD to a certain format?

I know Structural Intergrators has some good software for this, but I'd think I should be able to do it with Robot.

Thanks,

Lyle

Export to DXF and then open it with Robot.
