FrameDesign is a powerful application designed for civil engineers, mechanical engineers, architects, and students needing to design 2D hyperstatic frames using Finite Element Analysis (FEA). This app simplifies geometry input and editing, allowing for precise customization and accurate simulations. Users can easily define forces, supports, and load cases, with real-time calculations providing instant results.
Key features include diverse load types (F, T, q – including rectangular and triangular loads), customizable beam connections (fixed and hinge), versatile support options (fixed, hinge, roller, and spring in any direction), and the ability to define and modify materials and sections. Analysis capabilities encompass moment, shear, stress, deflection, and reaction forces, along with unity checks. Load cases and combinations, including safety factors, are also supported.
