Standard Design
The design functionalities are placed on three tabs: the global checks, member checks and serviceability checks tab. The required code checks of the different types of structural components – cross-sections, members – can be conveniently evaluated based on the following standard: Design of steel structures:
• EuroCode
o EN 1993-1-1: General rules and rules for buildings
o EN 1993-1-2: General rules. Structural fire design
o EN 1993-1-3: General rules. Supplementary rules for cold-formed members and sheeting
o EN 1993-1-5: Plated structural elements (particular)
• Spanish standards
o Structural Steel Code (EAE)
Design of concrete structures:
• EuroCode
o EN 1992-1-1: General rules and rules for buildings
Design of composite steel and concrete structures:
• EuroCode
o EN 1994-1-1: General rules and rules for buildings
Several National Annexes are implemented and user annex can also be defined and saved.
📄️ Steel design
Steel design related functions can be found on the Global checks and the Member checks tabs.
📄️ Reinforced concrete design
Design of concrete members are available at the Global checks tab. By clicking on the button, the Design… dialog will appear, where below the Steel and Composite design, the Concrete design EN 1992-1-1 panel can be found. On the panel, Beam, Column design and slab reinforcement calculations are available. If the necessary input parameters for these calculations are available (cross sections, reinforcement data, design parameters and analysis results), the checkboxes for the different design options are active, and choosing the desired item. Calculation can be initiated to obtain utilizations.
📄️ Composite design
Composite column design related functions can be found on the Global checks tab, beam design related function can be found on the Member checks tab.
📄️ Serviceability checks
