XFrame2D is the MOST intuitive structural analysis and design software for 2D models of any structure. Consider, for example, a calculation of 2D frameworks in steel and/or wood.

It is developed in close cooperation with the users of the software.

Features

Geometry

  • Point supports
  • Pinned, fixed, (rotational) spring
  • Beams
  • Nodes
  • Gridlines XZ

Modelling/3D Navigation tools

  • Copy, move, delete
  • Copy including loads
  • Find
  • Snap
  • Screenshot
  • Zoom extents
  • Zoom selection

FEM/Solver

  • 2D Finite Element Method(FEM)
  • New powerful matrix/equation solver written in C#
  • Geometric Linear(GL) and Geometric Non-Linear(GNL) second order calculation
  • Physic Linear for Concrete, Steel and Wood

Loads

  • Load Cases/Combinations user defined or using the Eurocode
  • Load generator with wind loads using the Eurocode
  • Beam load, free surface load, node load, free point load
  • Forced node displacement

Interface

  • Multiple languages are available: English, German, Spanish, Italian and Dutch
  • CAD like user interface intuitive modern and fast
  • Colors, text height fully customable

Standards

  • Eurocodes are integrated where applicable
  • Dutch, German, UK, Belgium and Italian National Annex of the Eurocodes are integrated
  • Partial factors are based on consequence class and NA
  • Imperfection
  • Dutch specific features:
    • NEN 8700 integration
    • Old rebarsteeltypes(FeB220,FeB400) are integrated

Steel

  • Integrated Eurocode EN 1993(class 1-3 profiles)
  • Global buckling stability check using GNL(Second-order analysis)
  • Steel optimization module
  • ca 2700 different steelprofiles integrated.
  • Built-up section
  • Deflection check including pre-camber
  • Integrated steel connection module. Beam-column moment connection can be calculated and the trilinear rotational rigidity diagram is used for the momentdistribution
  • Tapered sections

Timber

  • Calculation of timber columns/beams using Eurocode
  • Global buckling stability check using GNL(Second-order analysis)
  • Climateclasses are integrated
  • Tapered sections

Results & Reporting

  • Internal forces of beams(M,V,N)
  • Reaction Forces
  • Envelop
  • Different useful options for output selection

Import/Export

  • Export to pdf, rtf
