and new data become available.
- Deflection limitations and environmental factors can be specified.
- Default design factors of safety may be changed.
- Beam conditions can be specified.
- Load information is given for concentrated point loads, full uniform loads, and partial trapezoidal loads. Maximum of 1 load cases, each consisting of up to 50 loads may be defined.
- Types of investigations available include least weight for a structural shape under various loads, and calculation of factor of safety in bending, shear and deflection for sections under load.
Additional information is included about fabrication, specifications for FRP products and fabrication, corrosion resistance, project worksheets, metric system conversions and a design example.
