Analysis

Within XBeam2D the analysis is Geometric linear (GL) ).

Self-weight

You can choose if you want the dead weight to be automatically generated or not.

Gravity acceleration g

Gravity acceleration in m/s2.

Design working life

The design working life of the building in years.

National Annex

The national annex can be chosen by country. Currently the national annexes of The Netherlands, Germany, United Kingdom, Belgium, Italy Consequence class

Consequence class

The consequence class of the construction. This determines among other things, the load factors that need to be used.

Steel code

The steel code you want to use.

Concrete code

The concrete code you want to use.

Partial fixity

The concrete code you want to use.

Timber code

The timber code you want to use.

-It can be set whether you want to take imperfections into account or not. For the time being, in Xframe2d global tilt is only possible in two directions. The beam imperfections (beam deformations) are not taken into account. However, the check according to Eurocode does take this into account, by assuming the buckling length equal to the beam length.
