S-FRAME Software, a global solution provider since 1981, is known for developing powerful and trusted structural engineering software applicable to both industrial and commercial projects. S-FRAME Analysis efficiently integrates structural analysis, steel design, concrete design and foundation design within a single model management environment. This integrated solution enables engineers to design robust structures regardless of geometric complexity, material types, loading conditions, nonlinear effects, and design-code requirements, through the following five steps:

Create high-fidelity models – accurately capture actual geometry, materials, support conditions, non-linear effects, and more.

Represent all probable environmental/operating conditions – loading from a variety of sources (wind, earthquakes, machinery, etc.) and the ability to easily combine them.

Build multi-scenarios – define multiple deviations of the core model (boundary conditions, connections, member types etc.) all within one computer model to enable easy-to-perform sensitivity studies.

Get fast and accurate solutions – latest technology in parallel processing and sparse solvers for linear, nonlinear, static, dynamic earthquake analyses to solve all the load combinations and multi-scenarios in one run.

Perform design code checks – integrated design code applications organize the large volume of results into detailed and easy-to-interpret design study reports that allow users to review as much detail as necessary to all design calculations, for all load combinations and all members.

Industries Served Include: Commercial Tall Buildings, Industrial Plants, Bridges, Rail and Transit.
