midas Gen provides SPC, which calculates stiffness data for anyshape or form. The section shape can be drawn, or a DXF file can be imported. The shape and properties of the generated section can be exported to midas Gen. Using this feature, unit structures such as a frame, an arch, a truss, a plate and a shell may be modeled by this automated modeling tool independently and may be combined later with the total model. > [midas SPC-User Defined Section] [Iso-view of Section][Section Properties] [Automatic Diaphragm Control][Powerful Rendering] [Easy modeling by Parametric Wizard] In-plane rigidity...
