GEOTEC ELPLA Professional v9.2 SP1 [Size: 171 MB] ... ELPLA (ELASTIC PLATE) is a program for analyzing raft foundations of arbitrary shape with the real subsoil model. The mathematical solution of the raft is based on the finite element method. The program can analyze different types of subsoil models, especially the three-dimensional Continuum model that considers any number of irregular layers. A good advantage of this program is the capability to handle the three analyses of flexible, elastic and rigid foundations. In addition, the mesh of the rigid and flexible foundations can be constructed to be analogous to the finite elements mesh of the elastic foundation. Therefore, the three analyses can be compared easily and correctly. ELPLA can also be used to represent the effect of external loads, neighbouring foundations, tunnelling and the influence of the temperature difference on the raft.

ASDIP CONCRETE contains a COLUMN DESIGN module. Now structural engineers can work cost-effectively to design circular or rectangular concrete columns based upon a combination of biaxial bending moments and axial loading. All software calculations are based upon ACI design criteria and Ultimate Strength Design Method. This structural engineering software calculates magnified moments due to slenderness and generates capacity axial-moment interaction diagram. Input: The required input data is organized on tabbed pages. The column cross-section may be rectangular or circular. The slenderness condition is considered by specifying the effective member length and if the column is sway or non-sway. This structural engineering software utilizes either the actual parabolic concrete stress-strain curve or the simplified equivalent rectangular one. The steel may consider strain hardening region. The loads may be modeled as part of the dead, live, roof live, snow, wind, and seismic load cases. If necessary, the moments are internally magnified and the program combines the loads per specified load combinations. Output: The output results are organized on tabbed pages. This structural engineering software calculates magnified moments and axial loads for all the specified load combinations. The 3D capacity interaction diagram is accurately calculated based on the geometry and reinforcement for biaxial columns. The moment magnification process is detailed and reported for a granular check of the design. The values that fail the design criteria are highlighted in red for easy to identify.

Concrete Beam Design: Beams are structural elements that support loads applied transversely, and therefore they mostly resist bending moments, as well as shear forces. Concrete beams are usually continuous, this is, they span between several supports. A common example of a T-beam occurs at the interior bay of a building floor, where a portion of the slab acts together with the projecting beam web. A beam at the border of the floor is called a spandrel beam. The program performs the design of a multi-span rectangular, T, or inverted-T concrete beam when subjected to a combination of bending and shear loading, based on the latest ACI design criteria and the Ultimate Strength Design Method. Multiple options are included to model the beam geometry and loads, as well as the reinforcing steel. Input: The required input data is organized on tabbed pages at the left half of the screen. The beam cross section may be either rectangular, T, spandrel, inverted-T, or L. A maximum of five spans may be modeled and two cantilevers. The end supports may be either pinned or fixed. This structural engineering software uses either the actual parabolic concrete stress-strain curve, or the simplified equivalent rectangular one. The steel considers the strain hardening region. Distributed and concentrated loads may be modeled as part of the dead, live, roof live, and snow load cases. The program internally combines the applied loads per the specified load combinations. Output: The output results are organized on tabbed pages. This structural engineering software calculates moments and shears along the beam for all the specified load combinations. The capacity is accurately calculated based upon geometry and reinforcement considering the moment gradient due to the development length of all the reinforcing bars. This structural engineering software allows to show the beam per span number and per load combination, for a granular check of the whole design process. The construction graph shows a scaled sketch of the beam elevation with information of the reinforcement.

Concrete Bearing Wall Design: Bearing walls are structural compression members which also may resist out-of-plane lateral loads. The resulting moments are referred to as weak-axis bending. A tilt-up wall panel exposed to wind is an example of this type of wall. Per ACI, bearing walls may be designed as compression members using the strength design provisions for flexure and axial loads, like columns. Any wall may be designed by this method and no minimum wall thicknesses are prescribed. As with columns, the design of walls is difficult without the use of design aids. Wall design is further complicated by the fact that slenderness is a consideration in practically all cases. The ACI Moment Magnification method is generally used to account for the slenderness effects. This structural engineering software performs design of concrete bearing wall when subjected to a combination of weak-axis bending moments and axial loading. All calculations are based upon the latest ACI design criteria and the Ultimate Strength Design Method. This structural engineering software calculates magnified moments due to slenderness and generates the capacity axial-moment interaction diagram. A multi-story wall may also be modeled. Input: The required input data is organized on tabbed pages. The wall section is rectangular with either one or two curtains of reinforcement. A parapet may be specified or the wall may be continuous at top. In this latter case, the load from the upper floor is accounted for by setting the uniform load eccentricity as zero. This structural engineering software uses the actual parabolic concrete stress-strain curve rather than the simplified equivalent rectangular one. The steel considers the strain hardening region. The loads may be modeled as part of the dead, live, roof live, snow, and wind load cases. The moments are internally magnified and the program combines the loads per the specified load combinations. Output: The output results are organized on tabbed pages. This structural engineering software calculates magnified moments and axial loads for all the specified load combinations. The capacity interaction diagram is accurately calculated based on the geometry and reinforcement. The moment magnification process is detailed and reported for a granular check of the design. The values that fail the design criteria are highlighted in red for easy to identify.
