I’ve not tried to design one with staad. But I do it manually

[@zues1979]

@@zues1979 you’re going to check the crushing strength of the sandcrete block not really providing rebars in it. So I don’t know how you’d go about it

Please show how to use opening, region

Okay it’s easy, it’s the same as opening in slabs
