Precast/Prestressed Girder can obtain bridge data
(geometry, materials, stand pattern, shear stirrups) directly from AASHTOWare’s
databases.
Send dead and live load
reactions for use within
Substructure.
Use the upgraded GUI
featuring grid based input, which makes data input very efficient.
Contemporary GUI style
dockable toolbar and icons.
Use the save setting feature
to minimize future input.
Design standard or custom
beam types using convenient section property editor and visual strand pattern
templates.
Use wizards to quickly
specify beam layouts.
Option to keep Beam Level values rather than
overwrite with Project Level information.
Save input data and/or
results at any time. Save designs and check them for new loading conditions.
Strand pattern is automatically saved unless the beam itself is changed.
Specify font for
viewing/printing output.
Send data file in an e-mail
message from within the program.
Options to specify the
default working folder.
Option to keep analysis
factors input manually.
Use wizards for generating
strand templates.
Enhanced Reports option for
design status output in HTML output, with color coding to highlight problem
areas.
Use the Dead Load Wizard to specify dead
loads in a quick, easy and efficient way.
Section Library Transfer Utility, allows for
bulk transfer of section from old libraries into new, or from different files,
into a consolidated file.
Link from within the program, from the Help
menu, to the User manual in PDF format.
Automatically check for updates from Web
site.
Detailed and separate reports of all input
and output either in text form or in enhanced report format.
Option to include 2D views (cross-section,
elevation) and analysis/design graphs in the enhanced report (HTML) outputs.
Strand pattern Wizard now allows definition
of straight/draped strands in an easy to use, point and click graphical user
interface. Get production quality printout showing strand patterns graphically.
Strand Pattern can optionally be modeled by
specifying cg and jacking force instead of a detailed strand pattern.
Specify and analyze the effect of temperature
loads including uniform, gradient and multi-linear temperature gradients.
Report rotations, camber and deflection
computations at tenth point locations along the beam, including live load
deflections.
