Simple Steel Structures - Stree Analysis
Simple Steel Structures - Stree Analysis
(OP)
I would really like to hear someones advice on which is the best software (program) to use for stress analysis of simple steel structures.
I'm a pipe support designer and sometimes I want to (and also have to) preform stress analysis of a secondary steel construction that I design for my pipe supports (sometimes the design is simple but sometimes not).
If You want to, I can post some pictures of the secondary steel construction which I design so You can see what I'm talking about.

There is also RAM by bentley, but I could not find a trial page on their site - I would think you could get something if you called though.

anyone who cant design a beam or column manually shouldnt be using any structural software.
it's like a structural engineer asking how to stress a pipe using ceasar without basic understanding of how it's done.
