Sectionwizard is compatible with leading
PC-based engineering software applications and metric
and imperial unit systems - an invaluable tool for the
structural engineer, allowing fast and accurate calculation
of section properties and retrieval of stress values
for custom and assembled shapes. Sectionwizard
can be run as a stand-alone application or within STAAD.Pro.
|
Features include:
- Create custom shapes from built-in sections and
plates. Over 12 international steel tables provided
including US, British, Dutch, German, Russian, Canadian
and Indian.
- Calculate section properties of custom and built-up
shapes: Area, Moment of Inertia, Plastic moduli,
Section modulus, Center of Gravity, Shear Center,
Torsional Constant, Shear Area and warping constants
(plastic resisting moments).
-
Create any free form sections
(even curved surfaces!), insert holes and openings
of any shape, create chamfers and fillets. Sectionwizard
has a CAD user interface enabling the engineer
to outline any section imaginable.
-
Create a customized library of
parametric sections and mathematically define
parameter relationships.
-
Easily move and rotate internal
contours or cutouts by dragging and dropping.
-
Build shapes with Composite
Materials.
-
Metric or Imperial units
supported.
-
Show stresses at any point of
a cross section based on Axial forces and Moments
about principal axes. (Compare actual stress
calculations with allowable to verify the adequacy
of your section).
-
Create STAAD.Pro User
Tables to assign the properties to members
in a structure.
-
Create customizable MS Word
reports.
-
Automatic generation of
equivalent sections. For example, create
a polygon with holes and ask for a wide
flange shape with equivalent properties
so a proper code check can be performed.
-
Import any DXF or DWG file.
-
Full Context Sensitive Help
along with several movie tutorials.
-
Use the final section properties
in any structural analysis and design program.
