Hey guys,

I was wondering how to enter and save custom cross sections in Staad V8i. I don't have the Section Wizard but if that is the only way to save custom cross sections I will have to make the investment. None of the sections we use are standard.

Thanks,
-Tony

I've managed to enter and save my custom cross sections, however the sectionDB manager won't save the plastic modulus. It keeps reverting to zero. Any thoughts on how to stop this?
