About this lesson

Learn how to verify your Revit structural model using STAAD Pro and Manual Design in this step-by-step guide by MJ DESIGNS. In this Part 2 of our series, we take the 3D model from Revit and perform structural analysis, load application, and member verification in STAAD Pro to ensure safe and efficient design. This video is perfect for civil and structural engineers, students, and professionals who want to understand the workflow between Revit BIM and STAAD Pro. Watch till the end for design confirmation & manual checks that bring your structure closer to execution stage.
