Steel Portal Frame EC3 RUNET software

3 Program features

 Automatic production of structure geometry with minimum data entering. All necessary data on one screen.

 Analysis and design of the structure simultaneously solution with data changes. Error messages for inadequate design in a specialized window. Design parts are marked OK or error.

 Selection of National Annex, snow, wind and earthquake region.

 Material and code parameters can be modified.

 Tools for evaluating snow load according to EN1991-1-3, wind load according to

EN1991-1-4 and earthquake load according to EN1998-1-1 from environmental data.

 All the load combination for Ultimate limit state ULS (EQU, STR), serviceability limit state SLS, and analysis for seismic loading according to EN1990-1-1.

 Full library with steel section profiles. Welded (fabricated) profiles can be used. Editor for properties of welded (fabricated) profiles.

 Linear elastic finite element analysis with modified element stiffness for the haunch effect.

 Imperfections with equivalent loads. Second order effects using α cr factors. ΕΝ1993-1-1 §5.2

and amplification

 Complete design verification according to EN1993-1-1 for section classification, crosssection resistance and member in plane, out-of plane and lateral torsional buckling.

 Design of bolted connections for Apex and Eave, and base according to EN1993-1-8.

 Design of column base joint according to EN1993-1-8. Anchoring system to resist uplift forces according to CEN/TS 1992-4. Base connection can be pinned or rigid.

 Design of concrete foundation, according to EN1997-1-1 and EN1992-1-1.

 Design for seismic loading using both Lateral force method, and Modal superposition spectrum analysis according to EN1998-1-1.

 Design of purlins. Continuous or simply supported purlins, lateral restrained or not.

The degree of restrain due to sheeting is evaluated.

 Design of vertical and horizontal lateral bracing system.

 Detailed report with diagrams of internal forces, connection drawings. References to

Eurocode paragraphs, report of analytical formulas and calculations. Table of contents.

 PDF and DOC export of the report.

 Report contents and design parts can be selected.

 Detailed drawing of the structure and the connection details,

 CAD tools to preview and adjust the drawings, with dxf, pdf and wmf export.
