A integrated and comprehensible software
including all the structural Eurocodes. It is a work and studying companion for all the
Eurocodes, from Eurocode 0 to Eurocode 8.
Eurocode 0, Basis of structural design
Eurocode 1, Actions on structures
Eurocode 2, Design of concrete structures
Eurocode 3, Design of steel structures
Eurocode 4, Design of composite steel and concrete structures
Eurocode 5, Design of timber structures
Eurocode 6, Design of masonry structures
Eurocode 7, Geotechnical design
Eurocode 8, Design of structures for earthquake resistance
A complete
package, and source of information on designing and understanding the
Eurocodes, and the National Annexes.
The program is build up from groups of components based on the structural
Eurocodes. You can design structural object based on the different Eurocodes,
select National Annexes, adjust parameters, and
do design and analysis of frame 2D-structures. Design charts and graphs for use and understanding the Eurocodes are
included.
A detailed
design report is
produced for the designed structural components. Assumptions, graphics,
references to the Eurocodes and the National Annexes are shown in the
report. The user can select the applicable National Annex. Design
code parameters, material values and default values can be adjusted.

Design of Roofs
Truss rafter roofs
Truss rafter roofs, carpentry connections
Collar roofs
Monopitch roofs
The
design is based on a finite element analysis of the truss structure. The truss is
considered as a two dimensional frame structure, and the stiffness of the connections is
adjusted according to the selected degree of stiffness. The natural frequencies of the
roof trusses are computed from a dynamic analysis. |
|
Automatic
generation of truss drawings.
Detailed drawing of the truss structure and the connections are automatically
produced. A specialised CAD modulus is included to customise, preview and print the
drawings. Export to DXF and PDF files.
Structural fire design
Structural
fire design is performed for every stress case. The structural fire design is performed
according to Eurocode 5, part 1-2, reduced cross section method..
Connections properties you can specify are:steel plate type, regular or BMF,
plate thickness, the degree of stiffness of connections, the type and size of the
connection nails.
You can also select to use single or multiple plates in the joints with more than two
members.
Splices are designed automatically for long timber members. |
