The program calculates basic and torsional cross-sectional characteristics of thin-walled cross-sections. It provides inputs necessary for warping verification of steel members.
This program is distributed as a part of FIN 2D, FIN 3D programs and any programs package.
Main features
Cross-sections can contains both closed cells and free branches
Database of hot rolled steel profiles
Various thickness of cross-sectional elements
Calculation of fundamental cross-sectional characteristics (centre of gravity, cross-sectional area, first and second moments of area, radii of gyration etc.)
Calculation of torsional characteristics (e.g. Saint Venant torsional constant, polar moment of inertia, warping constant)
Results relatively to the centre of gravity, shear centre or origin of coordinates
Detailed text and brief graphical reports
The program works independently however it can be used in cooperation with programs FIN 3D and FIN 2D for determining characteristics of cross-sections which are not included in the database of these programs.
