A structural analysis software for professional engineers.
• American AA ADM-2020 (ASD and LRFD)
• American AA ADM-2015 (ASD and LRFD)
• Canadian CSA S157
• Standard shapes and parametric shapes (over 30 shapes available) including angles and polygonal tubes are supported
• Comprehensive library of standard aluminum grades
• Several design parameters can be calculated by the program
• P-Delta and Non-Linear analysis, Seismic Static, Seismic Spectral and Dynamic analysis
• The Redesign command allows to test different solutions without requiring to run the analysis each time
• Classification, resistance and stability computations performed according to the specified aluminum standard
• Calculation of Compression, Tension, Bending, Compression-Bending, Tension-Bending, Shear, Torsion and warping, Slenderness
• Calculation of combined resistance of aluminum elements based on the results of a linear, P-Delta, non-linear, seismic or dynamic analysis
• All parameters required to calculate the resistance of the elements such as unbraced lengths, buckling lengths, buckling factors, welding, slenderness limit and others can be customized either graphically or from spreadsheets
• Displayed graphically on the 3D model through color representation or presented numerically in spreadsheets and reports
• The program distinguishes two types of welds: End welds and In-span welds
• Each of these types of welds may be full (affecting the entire cross section) or partial (affecting a portion of the
cross section)
• Customizable, user-friendly, and exhaustive report generation in multiple formats including Word document and Excel worksheet
• Generate executive report summary by printing the results for only the critical load combination
