General purpose
- Fast assessment and verification of individual sections in the structure.
- Optimisation of reinforcement for safe and economical design.
- Clear and transparent calculation report.
Section definition
- Selection of a typical cross-section shape: rectangle, circle, T, I, rectangle with rounded corners.
- Manual definition of a general shape of the cross-section.
Reinforcement input
- Templates of reinforcement for typical cross-section shapes: rectangle, circle, T, I, rectangle with rounded corners.
- Free input of reinforcement for cross-sections of a general shape.
Predesign
- Capacity
- Shear + torsion
- Detailing provisions
Code-checks
- Capacity – response (ULS) - This check evaluates stresses and strains in the concrete and reinforcement.
- Capacity - interaction diagram (ULS) - The resistance of the section is calculated using the 3D interaction diagram.
- Shear + torsion (ULS) - The interaction of shear and torsion and is evaluated.
- Detailing provisions (ULS) - The detailing provision as stipulated in EC EN 1992-1-1 are checked.
- Stress limitation (SLS) - Cracks in the cross-section (for short term load) are evaluated. The calculation is based on the stress-strain distribution.
- Crack width (SLS) - Cracking forces for an uncracked section are calculated and the limit value of the crack width is determined.
- Deflection (SLS) - Deflections are determined based on the long-term stiffness and curvature under total load. Also deflection limits are calculated.
Reporting
