TECHNICAL CAPABILITIES

User Interface 

  • Graphical capabilities. Models can be created quickly and accurately using structural grids, tooltips to highlight data, frame generators, and a structure wizard for standard structural frames 
  • Visualization. From simple wire frames for speed, accuracy, and ease of use to fully rendered 3D models for clear mass distribution and presentation 
  • All new advanced IDE style Editor with IntelliSense, Database Integration, and context sensitive help 
  • Meshing capabilities. Triangular or quadrilateral meshes created from zones within defined models or imported from DXF files 
  • Load generators. Seismic UBC, IBC, ASME wind and snow, bridge loading BEAVA 
  • Customizable interface with VBA tools. Create windows and tables to your own specifications. SQL query builder 
  • Building Planner. Special modeling environment for building structures (requires SELECT or ELS) 

Objects 

  • Beams. Standard linear, curved and physical beams, compression/tension only, with databases of sections from around the world 
  • Plates. 3- or 4-noded 2D plates and surface objects with holes 
  • Solid. Solid 3D bricks from 4- to 8-noded 
  • Supports. Foundation and multilinear springs 
  • Loads. Full range of loads for static and dynamic analysis that can be defined explicitly or calculated using the wide range of load generators 

Analysis 

  • Elastic. Traditional first order including iterative one-way analysis 
  • P-Delta. Both large and small P-Delta including stress-stiffening effects 
  • Imperfection. Account for imperfections in structural geometry
