Steel Design
- Design Codes include AISC (ASD and LRFD), AASHTO and optional codes such as ASCE 52 and several international codes like BS5400, BS5950, French, German, Canadian, Japanese, Chinese, Indian, Mexican (NTC), EC3 and Scandinavian
- Design of HSS Sections
- Design of steel beams with cover plates
- Start your model without specifying any sizes!
- Design of tapered sections like I-beams and hexagonal, dodecagonal and octagonal tubes
- Design cold-formed and aluminum sections with full database library included
- AISC code check for members with cover plates
- Interactive steel designer to model enhanced physical members and report step-by-step calculations for each design clauses and formula
- Moment and shear connection designer integrated with the steel designer to perform several column flange-beam moment and shear connections
- New AASHTO 2000 code
- 1996 AISI Cold-Formed Steel Design and section library
