As far as software goes, there are many good options out there and it will be up to you to research them and determine which one best fits your needs.

Tower 7 is a graphical program for universal analysis of influences in planar and space structures. By providing strong tools that are automated, integrated, all-inclusive and intuitive, this program enables the engineers to increase the speed and quality of designing.
Software comparing static and seismic calculations for me and so interested in what kind of program that you have?
I'm sorry if I'm boring but the internet has so many programs and do not know what to look!!!
RE: Software, standars, etc.
RISA-3D
SAP-2000
STAAD-Pro
There are a couple of other program that have made some in-roads in recent years:
RAM Elements
Visual Analysis
I don't understand your application very well, so I cannot say whether any of these programs fully meet your needs. Some of these programs will have Demo versions available for download. RISA's demo can be obtained easily by filling out the data on the following page:

Note: I actually work for RISA. So, don't mistake me for an unbiased / neutral practicing engineer.
