EngiLab Truss.2D 2022

MODELING CAPABILITIES

• Linear Static Analysis of 2D Trusses
• Full support of different unit systems (Metric, Imperial US, etc) - No limitations on units
  
• 2 Degrees Of Freedom (DOFs) per Node (X-, Y- Displacements)
  
• Built-in Section Properties Calculator for most standard sections
  
• AISC (v15) and European section Databases are built-in for easy importing
• Any type of constraints (DX, DY) and Springs (KX, KY)
• Nodal Loads (FX, FY)
• Uniform Loads (fX, fY), distributed to the joints as equivalent Nodal Loads
• Body (Acceleration) Loads (e.g. self weight), distributed to the joints as equivalent Nodal Loads

ANALYSIS RESULTS - CALCULATIONS

• Node Displacements: DX, DY, Total Displacement
• Support Reactions: FX, FY, Total Reaction
• Element Results: Force, Stress, Strain, Elongation, Strain Energy
• Element Checks against Yielding (Stress) and Buckling
• Full analysis report in Rich Text Format containing all the above results plus pictures (Model, Axial plots, Deformation and Free Body Diagram)
• Analysis Validation: Global Equilibrium, Energy Conservation, Joints Equilibrium, Elements Equilibrium

GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACE - DRAWINGS

• Easily editable (with a text editor such as Notepad) .tr2d input file
• Modern, easy-to-use and powerful Graphical User Interface for Pre- and Post-Processing (Zoom, Pan features, Mouse middle button and wheel support)
• Import of DXF Drawings as Analysis Models
• Drawing of Axial Force, Stress and Strain Diagrams
• Drawing of Axial Force, Stress and Strain Color Plots
• Drawing of the Model Deformation, showing intermediate deformation values on screen
• Drawing of the Free Body Diagram: Model with all the forces (external forces and support reactions).
• Automatic scaling of Diagrams and Deformation
