It would be nice to have the ability to have material types in SACS. This would help when doing material take offs. This would be a new set of cards where the user would specify a material type (name) and all the structural properties (elastic mod...

When ordering SACS to do the unity checks according to the Eurocode 3, the SACS manual states in section 3.6.4: “1. It is extremely important to define physical members as a span using SPAN lines.“ However, the current version of Precede has very ...

In the current input file structure in SACS there is an option to set the buckling length of the bottom flange of wide flange beams separately in the GRUP card. This means that for every physical member separate GRUP cards need to be created to se...

Under the current SACS versions, SACS uses annex F table F.1.1. of the Eurocode ENV 1993:1-1:1992 to determine the C1 factor in the elastic critical moment equation. Setting the C1 factor accurately is of paramount importance to determining the el...

To update the code check requirements based on more recent Recommended Practice. i.e.: 1. Fatigue option 'ERD' is based on DNV RP-C203 (2014). While this revision had long been superseded and not available from DNV website, we need to perform/veri...

When plotting UCs in psvdb, SACS 2023 renders skipped members with their original color (unlike prvious versions where they where rendered in grey). This generates quite a confusion because it is not easy to determine if a member is green because ...

I request the implementation of code checks for the 2022 Eurocode 1993 and 2020 ISO 19902 in the next SACS version. This update will enhance structural analyses, optimize designs, and ensure compliance. Please prioritize this enhancement.

As we know that SACS already use rainflow counting method in the fatigue calculation of Time History Analysis "I request SACS to separate the rainflow counting out as a separate module which user can call to use with other module rather than only ...

I would like to have the possibility to save and easily switch between 2 display color settings configurations (not model dependent), for example one with dark background for modelling and one with white background for taking screengrabs.

Add the ability to tab through load case results one at a time. This was in the old postvue and was removed. Please put it back in the new view results.
