  Design Features

Design check for structural steel members in accordance with various design codes
Structural steel-reinforced concrete composite member design check
Graphical analysis of design results (by members or section properties)
Structural steel weight optimization through automatic design check iteration and auto-renewal of section properties
Graphical representation of Structural steel design optimization process to identify the trend
Graphs representing stress ratios, weight distribution and average safety ratios
Plate girder design check
Design check for variable (tapered) I-shape structural steel section
Design check for reinforced concrete members in accordance with various design codes (producing rebar quantity)
Strain-stress analysis and P-M interaction diagrams for Reinforced concrete members (beam, column, diagonal & shear wall) thereby producing required reinforcing steel
Reinforcing steel size and spacing based on auto-calculated reinforcing steel
Slender reinforced concrete column design reflecting moment magnification and slenderness producing required reinforcing steel
Shear wall design reflecting the slenderness of weak axis
Spread and pile footing design
Structural systems independently designated in each direction, i.e., Laterally braced in X-dir and unbraced in Y-dir
Auto-calculation of effective buckling length factor (K-Factor)
Auto-generation of design check calculations and design summaries


 
 
Optimal Design Results: Design results after 5 iterations showing 1) Weight distribution by combined stress ratios; 2) Accumulated weight distribution; 3) Weight distribution by section properties; and 4) Combined stress ratios by section properties




Results showing structural steel design module: Design check and calculation in which the RED color signifies overstress




Input for reinforced concrete beam: Total input can be checked in the left dialog box. Rebar information at each location, i-Node, mid and j-Node, can be entered.
