Question:
Is it possible to calculate with American steel cross-sections?
Answer:
There are many cross-sections according to the American codes integrated in the cross-section library.
For example, the following types of cross-sections are included:
W-sections, M-sections, S-sections, HP-sections, WT-sections, C-sections
In addition to the determination of internal forces, it is also possible to design the steel cross-sections according to ANSI/AISC 360‑10. In this case, the RF-/STEEL AISC add-on module is required.
