SIA 260: Basics of Planning Structural Design Projects SIA 261: Actions on Structures SIA 262: Concrete Structures
The structure standards SIA 260 to SIA 262 replace, in part the standards SIA 160 and SIA 162 from 1989 and 1993, respectively. This brings them in line with the European standards.
|
 |
The InfoCAD program system covers all relevant sections. As a result, the following calculation options exist for all structural parts according to the SIA standards:
- Definition and combination of the actions
- Bending, shearing and torsional design
- Punching shear check
- Crack width limitation
- Nonlinear calculations in state II
- Earthquake check using the response spectrum method
|
 |
 |
All structure types can be handled with equal ease, from a simple floor slab to a geometrically complex prismatic shell structure or solid model. |
 |
| When using the predefined material types according to SIA (C12/15-C50/60, LC12-LC50/55 as well as free concrete material, for instance for high-quality concretes), the program offers the corresponding design specifications and actions. All partial safety factors and combination coefficients are automatically set according to the structure type. The program combines the input and carries out reinforced concrete bending and shearing design for the design situations specified. |

Combined support forces are available for the interactive punching shear check. |
 |
Depending on the requirement (for instance, moveable frame or tunnel section) a nonlinear calculation taking into account the cracked section can be carried out. The calculation is performed either for the ultimate limit state or the serviceability limit state (more). |

|
The check according to the response spectrum method allows you to plan structures that take into consideration the effects of earthquakes (more).
