Seeking Program for Effective Section Prop Cold Formed Steel ANSI
(OP)
I am looking for a program that can accurately calculate section properties for Cold formed Steel with ANSI effective width method. I have tried AutoCAD, Solidworks, ShapeDesigner, ProE, ShapeBuilder and alot of more. However, none of those software has the capability to do so. Can some professionals help me out? I will appreciate from head to toe.

Please look that the image I supplied. All I need is a tool to calculate the effective Ixx, Sxx in positive bending (top in compression) and negative bending (bottom in compression).

Thanks for the reply. I am planning to get the CFS. I just contacted them. Seems like they are going to release a new version of CFS to allow the import of DXF file which is very beneficial to me.
