Design of tension, compression, bending, shear, and combined internal forces
Stability analysis of flexural buckling and lateral torsional buckling
Automatic determination of critical buckling loads and critical buckling moments for general load applications and support conditions by means of a special FEA program (eigenvalue analysis) integrated in the module
Optional application of discrete lateral supports to beams
Automatic cross-section classification
Deformation analysis (serviceability)
Cross-section optimization
Wide range of cross‑sections available, for example rolled I‑sections, C‑sections, rectangular hollow sections, angles, double angles (arrangement with flange on flange), T‑sections, and welded cross‑sections: I‑shaped (symmetrical and asymmetrical about major axis), channel sections (symmetrical about major axis), rectangular hollow sections (symmetrical and asymmetrical about major axis), angles, round pipes, round bars
Clearly arranged result windows
Detailed result documentation including references to design equations of the standard used
Various filter and sorting options of results including result lists by member, cross‑section, x‑location, or by load cases, load and result combinations
Result window of member slenderness and governing internal forces
Parts list with weight and solid specifications
Seamless integration in RFEM/RSTAB
