FBEAM 2011
FBEAM 2011® is a fully featured composite beam design
program that enables you to create composite and non-composite
plain and cellular beams to the Eurocode design code.
Cellular beam design software that has an array of exciting and
innovative features that substantially improve beam design
efficiency. The first noticeable feature is the new interface -
it's friendlier, familiar and much easier to use and navigate.
Increased efficiency in design data entry. Common beam
properties such as floor construction, loads, floor arrangements
etc. are only created once. These properties can then be linked to
multiple beams. Any changes made to a property changes all the
beams that are referencing it, and the design output
updates instantly.
The software constantly analyses the whole project when a change
is made so the status can instantly be assessed. Colour coded
status for the beams lets the user instantly know if a beam passes,
fails or has issues not allowing a design.
All new 3D beam viewer showing cross section, elevation, floor
plan and user controlled view allowing the beam to be rotated and
viewed from any angle.
All new SCI accredited Eurocode engineering module developed
from the ground up that now incorporates the following new
features:
- Multiple load combination design.
- Varying floor deck angles can be specified on either
side.
- Distances to adjacent beams can vary at the left and
right hand supports.
- Cantilever and fixed end beam designs now
possible.
- Support for negative or upward loads can now be
entered.
- Shear stud spacings can now be varied along the
beam.
- End posts can now be checked
automatically.
- Comprehensive user defined analysis settings
options.
Includes the enhanced Beam Wizard™ - a fast and highly efficient
'one-pass' optimiser for beam designs in the fire and normal
conditions that removes the need for iteration and determines the
optimum solution in seconds.
The cell generation and editing facility now makes an often
complex and time-consuming task as simple as possible. The editor
is versatile, flexible and sophisticated, but remarkably easy to
use. For example, users can edit or select beam openings directly
on the schematic, and change the shape, position or spacing in a
few simple mouse clicks. An all new regular cell generator allows a
beam to be filled with regular cells that follow certain design
rules allowing the cells sizes and positioning to dynamically
change depending on the section they are applied to.
