New in version 2.02

  • The spy dialog window is now freely movable (or dockable).
  • In the output, the geometry is displayed graphically immediately after the Input data.
  • Numerical values can optionally be displayed in the M and D lines.
  • A new table "Governing section forces" has been added to the output showing the determining member forces per member.
  • Per member, the number of lateral supports could be specified. All lateral distances are then naturally equal. In addition to this method, it is now also possible to specify lateral distances freely.
  • When entering a new load case, you can now choose between permanent load incl. and excl. self-weight.
  • In the spy dialog window for the concrete beam, the x-distance can now also be entered numerically.

Changes compared to version 2.01.14

  • Steel check: The unity check is no longer shown in every drawing in the output but in a separate drawing in paragraph 2.4 EN1993 CHECKS.
  • The lateral torsional buckling check has been improved. Now per beam section (between fork and lateral support or between two lateral supports) the ratio of the end moments (beta) is determined and the lateral buckling is calculated.
  • In connection with lateral stability, members can be grouped. Per member group, the buckling length out of plane and the lateral distances are entered.
  • The graphical display of the lateral supports for members in a member group has been improved.

Changes compared to version 2.00

  • New: supports at any angle - By using a local coordinate system you can place any support at any angle.
  • New: steel stress check according to EN1993 - The force distribution is based on a geometrically non-linear force distribution where imperfections are also automatically taken into account.
  • New: placing a hinge in a beam - With one mouse click you place an internal hinge in a beam.
  • New: dockable windows - The tables can now be placed as 'floating' or be 'docked'.
