Add features to allow change flooded/unflooded for vary segmented member in single member

SACS has capability to calculate Center of Damage seastate. However, SACS internally used a=1.8 and m=3. Currently, we face the problem with DNV to use other parameter i.e. a=1.0, m=5 Can SACS provide option to change this parameter ? At the momen...

Currently, it is possible to perform just only 1 load combination using Delta effects (one stiffness matrix per structure), and as far as the comments by technical support of SACS, this is the way in which SACS was planned and designed, Usually in...

I would like to ask the SACS developers to consider implementing the following enhancement. In PostVue, it would be very useful to be able to plot von Mises stresses not only for the top and bottom fiber layers, but also for the membrane layer.

Dear Bentley, I request to expand SACS capabilities for model adjustment/modification to be more flexible to user. As you known, offshore structure is subjected to variety of load condition since it is loaded out from the fabrication yard. The bou...

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 ...

The SCF at conical transitions is calculated correctly by SACS using the DNV formulation. However, for transitions where the cylinder and cone have different thicknesses, the fatigue damage calculation is not fully consistent with the DNV methodol...

Dear Bentley, I requested SACS to have the VANILLA module to calculate "Dynamic Level Ice Loading" in the future development. Currently, SACS already have ice vibration module which is based on "Ice Tooth model". This fundamental model and concept...

I believe it is great feature, and should be widely used by structural engineer. However, I believe that the current resources are not well described or difficult for regular engineer, with no prior or little to none experience in coding. Include ...

It is probably mainly copying and updating the label but it looks so much more professional when one can say on is indeed using the latest code as according contract.
