In the latest version of the software, we added the following new features:

  • Check of steel beams and columns: Now you can use steel elements in your project. The program performs check of a designed member under action of any internal forces (normal and shear forces, bending moments) and stability check for columns. A complete archive including the most common steel cross section types (IPE, HEA, HEB e HEM) is made available to the user.
  • Bug fixing e small improvements
