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.
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.
