P-Delta, Linear, Non-Linear analysis, Seismic Static, Seismic Spectral and Dynamic analysis, Finite Element Analysis (FEA)Â
• Steel verification includes sections classification, resistance and stability checks according to the applicable standard.
• Calculation of the bending, compression, tension, shear, torsion/warping and combined resistance of steel and composite elements based on the results of a linear, P-Delta, non-linear, seismic or dynamic analysis. The program also verifies web yielding and web crippling at supports.
• GSE steel performs an optimization of a number of selected groups of members. The optimization can then be carried for the whole structure or a part of the structure.
•60° and 90° angles and 90° angles with lips
•Channel with or without lips
•Z sections with or without lips
•U (Hat) sections
•Tension resistance (Chapter D)
•Compression resistance including distortional buckling (Chapter E)
•Bending resistance including distortional buckling (Chapter F)
•Shear resistance (Chapter G)
•Combined forces (Chapter H)
•Web yielding and web crippling at supports (Chapter G)
Limit states can be displayed graphically on the 3D model by means of colors or numerically in spreadsheets and reports.
• Customizable, user-friendly, and exhaustive report generation in multiple formats including Word document and Excel worksheet

within a single, integrated software environment
The General Structural Engineering (GSE) software offers a significant advantage with its ability to perform multiple material designs simultaneously. This powerful feature enables structural engineers to efficiently design and analyze structures using various materials such as steel, concrete, wood, or aluminum – within a single, integrated software environment.
By integrating advanced design and analysis tools, GSE streamlines workflows, optimizes design time, and enhances productivity. This efficiency is critical in today’s fast-paced engineering projects, allowing for quicker turnaround times and cost-effective designs.
