Quickly Determine Loads with the GEO-ZONE TOOL: Interactive Load Zone Maps with Google Technology

The GEO-ZONE TOOL contains interactive maps to quickly determine snow, wind, and seismic data according to multiple international standards. All calculated values are integrated with Google Maps location services.

Check out this video to see all the functions and options offered by the GEO-ZONE TOOL.

- Site-specific data according to national and international standards
- Print and screenshot function to document load data
- Integration with your personal website
- Web service (API) for external program integration

Structure
Buildings often have extensions. If the roof levels are not at the same height, this height difference (if more than 0.5 m) must additionally be considered for the snow load assumption.
Taking Snow Overhang into Consideration
The "Generate Snow Loads" function provides the option to take snow overhang into consideration. Thus, the load of the snow overhang is applied automatically to the eaves using a distributed load or several nodal loads.
Computer technology has a firm grip on digital structural analysis and design. With each new development, the planners involved are able to increase the limits of what is feasible.
Design Spectrum
DIN EN 1998-1 with the National Annex DIN EN 1998-1/NA specifies how to determine seismic loads. The standard applies to structural engineering in seismic areas.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Where can I find the exact standard description for the "map" component of the Geo-Zone Tool web service query?
Is it possible to display the interactive Geo-Zone Tool map with the load zone entries digitally as an image using a web service?
Is it also possible to integrate the Geo-Zone tool for the load determination into a web service (API)? What are the conditions?
How are the location-specific Geo-Zone Tool data queries calculated for the determination of various building loads?
Where can I get the hash code based on my email address for using the web service function in the background of the Geo-zone tool "Snow Load, Wind Speed, and Seismic Load Maps"?
