Fixes & Enhancements


A number of minor updates and enhancements have been included in this release, including:

  • [TSD-4665]1 - When adding wind loading for portal frames to BS 6399, editing values in the dialog such as qs would trigger recalculation of Cpe. However, reduction factors applicable to multi-span portal frames were not being applied correctly. This is corrected in this release.
  • [TSD-9256]1 - In Portal Frame Designer, when a combination had Strength load factors for loadcases set to zero, this could cause a crash in the portal frame analysis. With this fix, Strength load factors of zero in any ULS or SLS combinations are no longer allowed.
