Analysis and design systems

Analysis and design systems are used to design and analyze the frame or components within a structure. These applications calculate the loading, stresses and strains on the elements. They also calculate the moments, shears and deflections on objects under various loading conditions.

These types of applications make use of various forms of analysis from the traditional first order static, second order p-delta, geometric non-linear or buckling analysis. They can also make use of various forms of dynamic analysis from modal extraction to time history and response spectrum analysis along with the sizing of steel, concrete and timber elements to the relevant national and international design codes.

Some examples of these systems are Tekla Structural Designer, ETABS, STAAD.Pro, SAP2000, Robot, ISM, S-Frame, MIDAS, Dlubal, SCIA, Powerframe, GTStrudl, Strusoft, and AxisVM.
