FastFrame by Enercalc.
This is a 32 bit Windows 95, 98 & NT Two-Dimensional frame
analysis program. You can model any type of framed 2D structure by
setting "joints" and specifying "members" that span between them.
After loads and load cases are specified the displacements and
forces are calculated by solving a bandwidth minimized stiffness
matrix using an active column solver. US, SI, and Metric units.
Requires 800x600 video mode using "Small" fonts.
Free software.
(This would have been a 5-star but
for the video mode. It is still useable and I use it!)

load-deformation relationship for a uniform block of reinforced
concrete in three dimensions. It may be subjected to any combination
of the general 6 stresses that can be applied to an arbitrary 3D
block. The program implements the Modified Compression Field Theory
to arrive at solutions. The program was developed at the University
of Toronto. |
