| 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. |
