Any
structural frame systems, which contain any
inclined columns, beams etc. can be analyzed and
drawn with ideCAD® IDS STRUCTURAL
easily. For the analysis, the program considers
any independent displacements of such nod, which
are not to fixed to a rigid diaphragm such as
panel or shear wall.
The
program is not only suitable for structural
analysis of reinforced concrete systems, but also
for any non-concrete systems such as steel and
wood constructions. Also such systems are modeled
like a reinforced concrete systems by using the
same objects such as columns and beams. The
material properties and dimensions, modules of
elasticity, geometrical characteristics of the
respective elements as well as their moments of
inertia, surface area data, and the supporting
(boundary) conditions of the nodes or column-beam
intersections joints (the partial tie ratio) as
well as the lengths of the rigid cantilevers or
other extremities can be defined individually on
object basis. The end forces of the individual
elements as well as the respective directions of
these end forces are schematically shown in their
own dialog windows. |
