| Many structural design analyses are based on
beam models. The program modules conceived for this purpose
allow you to calculate 2D and 3D beam and truss constructions
according to the linear plastic and the deflection theory and
handle spatial toppling and buckling problems.
The nonlinear system analysis
makes calculations possible that take crack formations and/or
yield zones into consideration.
For example,
flexible 3D reinforced concrete frames can be calculated
according to the deflection theory in condition II or checks can
be carried out for "plastic-plastic" scenarios in steel
structures. |
The lateral torsional buckling check
according to DIN 18800, Part 2 rounds off the steel structure
checks. |
The
resulting longitudinal, comparison, and shear stresses can be
plotted over the sections.
Stress distribution in the section |
In addition to the common steel
sections, any polygon-bordered sections can be defined and
edited in a profile database.
All system data is entered and checked graphically and
interactively, so that even intricate structure models can be
handled with ease. |
