Parts list with weight and solid specificationsįirst, it is necessary to decide whether to perform the design according to ASD or LRFD.

Result window of member slenderness and governing internal forces.

Various filter and sorting options of results, including result lists by member, cross-sections, and x-location, or by load case, load and result combination.

Detailed result documentation with references to the design equations used and described in the standard.

Clearly arranged input and result windows.

Wide range of cross-sections available for example, rolled I-sections channel sections T-sections angles rectangular and circular hollow sections round bars symmetrical, asymmetrical and parameterized I-, T-, and angle sections double angles.

Serviceability limit state design (deflection).

Automatic cross-section classification (compact, noncompact, and slender).

Optional application of discrete lateral supports to beams and continuous members.

Alternative analytical calculation of the critical buckling moment for standard situations.

Automatic determination of critical buckling loads and critical buckling moments for general load applications and support conditions by means of a special FEA program (eigenvalue analysis) integrated in the module.

Stability analysis of buckling, torsional-flexural, and lateral-torsional buckling.
