ETABS
V9.5Computers and Structures, Inc. is pleased to announce the release of CSIxRevit2009, a significantly enhanced link that allows for data exchange between ETABS® v9.5.0 and Revit® Structure 2009. CSIxRevit2009 now supports true round-tripping, specifically- four different workflows of data interchange:
1) Exporting from Revit Structure to create new ETABS model
2) Exporting from Revit Structure to update an existing ETABS model
3) Importing from ETABS to create a new Revit Structure model
4) Importing from ETABS to update an existing Revit Structure model.
The CSIxRevit2009 link is a powerful integration tool, allowing you to maximize the capabilities of ETABS and Revit Structure 2009.
Gold Sun is pleased to announce the release of SADS Version 10. New features include 2 procedures to link SADS to ETABS:
A newer and faster procedure to map ETABS lateral load analysis results into SADS. This is suitable for users who prefer to prepare the ETABS model and SADS database separately.
A new module to extract floor level info, material/section properties, sub-frames, column connectivities and wall assemblages directly from an ETABS model. With this procedure, the mapping of lateral load analysis results into SADS is automatic. This is suitable for users who prefer to generate the initial SADS database directly from the ETABS model to speed up the SADS input process.
We are excited to announce that you can now use Space Space Version 10.5 for linear and 2nd order analyses for submission to the Buildings Department:
Static Linear & 2nd Order Analyses
Analysis of Elastic Critical Load (Elastic Buckling)
Steel Design to BS5950:1990
Steel Design to Code of Practice for the Structural use of Steel 2005
SPACE
GASS is a general purpose structural analysis and design program for
2D and 3D frames, trusses, grillages and beams. It comes with a full
complement of features that make it suitable for any job from small
beams, trusses and portal frames to large high rise buildings,
towers, cranes and bridges. Items such as graphical input, polar
coordinates, elastic supports, pin-ended members, tension-only
members, rigid member offsets, moving loads and non-linear analysis
are all standard features.
SPACE GASS uses PDd 2nd order analysis which is valid for non-sway, sway and sway ultra-sensitive frames. The output is complete and design
er can trace the entire design procedure. Nevertheless, if initial frame imperfections and/or initial member imperfections are required, Space Gass would not consider these imperfections automatically and users must include them in the initial structural geometries.

Computer & Structures, Inc. is pleased to announce the Release of SAP2000 Version 11. The three levels of this release, Basic (B), Plus (P) and Advanced (A). You can now use the buckling analysis (available to Plus and Advanced versions) and 2nd order analysis (available only to Advanced version) for submission to checking authorities.
Three specialty Add-on modules to the Advanced level of SAP2000 are being introduced with this release. These Modules are:
1. Object-Based Bridge Design
2. Staged Construction
3. Offshore/Wave Loading
These modules can be purchased individually but require the Advanced level of the software. For additional information please e-mail to johnli@src-asia.com.
Limcon V3
is a design aid for
steel
connections. Available design codes are:
ANSI/AISC 360-05 (ASD & LRFD), CAN/CSA S16-01, BS 5950:2000, and
AS 4100.

This all-new SAFE is the ultimate integrated tool for
designing reinforced and post-tensioned concrete floor and
foundation systems. This version introduces versatile 3D object
based modeling and visualization tools. Charged with the power of
SAPFIRE this release redefines standards in practicality and
productivity.
From framing layout to detail drawing production, SAFE integrates
every aspect of the engineering design process in one easy and
intuitive environment. Although its name is unchanged, the all-new
SAFE is vastly enhanced and improved in every facet. It provides
unmatched benefits with its unprecedented combination of power,
functionality and ease-of-use.
SAFE v12 is available as SAFE, which includes comprehensive
capabilities for reinforced concrete, or SAFE/PT, which additionally
includes all post-tensioning features.
The SAP name has been synonymous with state-of-the-art analytical
methods since its introduction over 30 years ago. SAP2000 follows in
the same tradition featuring a very sophisticated, intuitive and
versatile user interface powered by an unmatched analysis engine and
design tools for engineers working on transportation, industrial,
public works, sports, and other facilities.
From its 3D object based graphical modeling environment to the wide
variety of analysis and design options completely integrated across
one powerful user interface, SAP2000 has proven to be the most
integrated, productive and practical general purpose structural
program on the market today.
This intuitive interface allows you to create structural models
rapidly and intuitively without long learning curve delays. Now you
can harness the power of SAP2000 for all of your analysis and design
tasks, including small day-to-day problems. Complex Models can be
generated and meshed with powerful Templates built into the
interface.
The Advanced Analytical Techniques allow for Step-by-Step Large
Deformation Analysis, Multiple P-Delta, Eigen and Ritz Analyses,
Cable Analysis, Tension or Compression Only Analysis, Buckling
Analysis, Blast Analysis, Fast Nonlinear Analysis for Dampers, Base
Isolators and Support Plasticity, Energy Methods for Drift Control
and Segmental Construction Analysis.
Bridge Designers can use SAP2000 Bridge Templates for generating
Bridge Models, Automated Bridge Live Load Analysis and Design,
Bridge Base Isolation, Bridge Construction Sequence Analysis, Large
Deformation Cable Supported Bridge Analysis and Pushover Analysis.
SAP2000 is for everyone! SAP2000 is for every project! From a simple
small 2D static frame analysis to a large complex 3D nonlinear
dynamic analysis, SAP2000 is the answer to all structural analysis
and design needs.
