ConSteel
2008. 09. 01.ConSteel provides a complete solution for the structural office mainly involved in design of steel structures. It covers all the phases of the design process: modeling; integrated analysis and standard design; detailed examination of cross-sections and structural joints; flexible documentation. The analysis and design approach of ConSteel utilizes entirely the most up-to-date methodologies of the modern structural standards treating the 3D structural model as a whole during the complete process. The unique interface between ConSteel and Tekla Structures, ConSteel and StruCad enables the user to export the full designed model including the placed joints reducing significantly the detailing costs. The ConSteel has been developed by a professional team of structural scientists, engineers and programmers being in daily connection with end user engineers. Our philosophy is to provide a unique flexibility in the direction of development for the users considering fully the most recent needs in their everyday work. The following chapters introduce the possibilities of ConSteel in more detail.

2008. 09. 01.In the ConSteel design approach great emphasis is placed on the integrated modeling and calculation of the global structure and its connections therefore a powerful joint analysis engine is developed as a separate module: csJoint. A great range of different joint types can be created easily applying several special connection elements, the design tools covers practically the whole joint standard Eurocode 3 Part 1-8. A joint can be defined alone or based on the global model by the automatic joint identification tool. A prepared joint can be placed several parts of the global model to make the joint integral part of it. A placed joint is always automatically rechecked based on the current analysis results, and the connection stiffness is also updated modifying the global model consequently.

csSection
2008. 09. 01.The wide functionality of the ConSteel connected with cross-sections suggested detaching a separate module: csSection. This module collects all the tools relate to the creation, property calculation, stress analysis and standard design of a cross-section. Two parallel modeling possibility exist: the General Solid Section (GSS) is an accurate finite element based surface model for any kind of cross-sections including inhomogeneous material (reinforced concrete, composite sections), the Elastic Plate Segment (EPS) is a thin-walled model specially for steel profiles. The steel standard design formulas are easy to evaluate on the EPS model including the real effective section generation of class 4 cross-sections based on the sectional forces resulted from the structural analysis.
