FastFrame
FastFrame is a 32 bit Windows 95, 98 & NT Two-Dimensional frame analysis program. You can model any type of framed 2D structure by setting "joints" and specifying "members" that span between them. After loads and load cases are specified the displacements and forces are calculated by solving a bandwidth minimized stiffness matrix using an ultra-fast active column solver. Here's some highlights of the program....
Specify translation & rotational joint restraint
Full frame graphics, deflect shapes, zooming
Specify joint enforced displacements or spring supports
Color coded stress levels on plot
Flexible loadings include trapezoidal and temperature
Member shear, moment, deflection & stress level diagrams
Load combination & load cases easily specified
Steel section database and code check
Detailed on-line help system US, SI, and Metric units
Automatic structure construction wizards
Automatic Joint & Member generation
Automatic steel section selection
Global, local, and projected load directions
