FRAME STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS SOFTWARE MODELLING | ANALYSIS | A03
Summary Frame performs frame and finite element analyses of 2D and 3D structures. It can perform linear, second order, stage, and non-linear static analysis as well as, buckling, modal, harmonic, and seismic analyses of 3D models. Frame is easy to learn and simple to use. Build your model using a combination of beams, shells, and solid finite elements. Analysis results can be exported to various other PROKON® modules for design purposes. The design links include steel member and connection design, timber member design and reinforced concrete design. Results can be viewed and added to a Calcsheet, both in graphics format and analysis reports. Frame also links to other software by way of DXF, DWG, CIS/2 and SNF (Strucad) files. Frame models can also be exported to and imported from Autodesk® Revit® using Prodesk .
What makes this module special?
• Link with other software by way of DXF, DWG, CIS/2 and SNF (Strucad) files • Model with different elements • Various analysis modes • Import/export Revit models through Prodesk • Input wizard to speed up modelling • Text file interface enables the use of pre- and post-processors on the data files Detailed Description General purpose finite element analysis (FEA) software can be complex and difficult to use. Software complexity either leads to time lost learning the software or many costly errors. Frame is easy to learn, simple to use and has been the analysis workhorse of structural engineers worldwide for over three decades.
Various analysis modes are available to aid the engineer in accurately predicting structural behaviour in every situation.
