The STRAP Concrete Design module automatically identifies the continuous beams and columns in the model, their span lengths and supports widths. It provides you with a more complete design than other programs that deal with each member separately. For example:
  • Moment redistribution in continuous beams may be requested.
  • The program calculates the additional moments in slender columns.
  • Variable spacing in beam stirrups (links) may be requested.
  • Compression reinforcement in beams is added when needed.
  • The program handles columns of various shapes and either computes the required reinforcement or checks a user defined reinforcement pattern.
  • An option to calculate main reinforcement and stirrups (links) for beams and columns according to the seismic requirements of various building codes.
  • Automatic column schedule, including drafting of column sections with reinforcement and a bar schedule.
  • Wall design according to seismic design codes.
  • Automatic detailing of concrete beams for regular and earthquake loads. (optional module).
  • Define "identical" beams or columns that are designed by the program with identical reinforcement.
  • Automatic derailing of slab reinforcement, consisting of bars, prefabricated meshes or both.
