The most important new features:
1. New Earthquake according to Dutch Eurocode 8. (NPR 9998+C1:2020)
In no time at all you can test your construction for earthquake according to the Dutch practical guideline NPR 9998+C1:2020.
How can you do this? You enter all load cases and combinations as you normally do. Then choose an earthquake calculation, fill in the earthquake parameters you determined with NEN NPR 9998 web tool and all seismic loads and combinations will be generated automatically. That will be all.
And of course, all generated seismic loads are printed in the output, including the way they were calculated. Again, a transparent and clear output as you would expect from us, of course.
Note that we can implement your Eurocode 8 NAD as well. Please let us know.
2. New Dimension lines
It is now possible to add dimensions to your construction model.The dimension line can be placed very easily with 3 clicks. You click on 2 existing nodes and choose the position of the dimension line. There is an automatic snap to previous lines.
3. Changing stirrups
Interactively changing reinforcement: Changing the stirrup spacing and the reinforcement area has been greatly improved. Now this can be done graphically by clicking on the relevant dimension line.
