I understand that using Revit or something will work better but i was wondering if there was any way to import a Staad model into inventor. I understand that there is no quick fix as far as i know like changing the file extension but wonder if anyone had any luck using the frame generator on a staad stick figure model. Thanks

Thank you for the info, however i am trying to use the frame gen to build off of a staad model in inventor. The analysis function is nice but i am asking on how to import a already designed model (from staad) into inventor to build from.

The forum will not allow a .std staad file to be attached for some reason. Says it is not a valid file extension. I appreciate the help and willingness to help convert this file but i am looking for long term (multiple) files to be able to import and steps on how to achive this more than once. I am going to assume that without said programs it is not possible.? Thanks

Upon further review of the file extensions, i was able to export a Staad file as a DXF file and able to open or import that file as a part (2D or 3D wireframe) into Inventor. This was my goal and wanted to post as FYI Thanks

ParaStaad is a grasshopper plug-in for professional structural analysis & interoperability linking Rhino/Grasshopper with StaadPro.

Before using ParaStaad you must install rhino grasshopper and StaadPro. ParaStaad contains many components to link with staadpro,

you can use it do complex structural analysis just build with rhino model.With the editor components you almost can do everything

you can in the staadpro just with draging components.In a word,Parastaad make it very easy to build strucural model in the staadpro. 54e83a788f
