midas Civil is one of the top 5 Bridge Design & Analysis Software that combines the ease of modeling with exclusive analysis features, making modeling and designing efficient for engineers. Our engineering software provides handy features for simpler bridges and flexibility to deal with complex geometry – combining all important features of bridge analysis software and bridge design software.
Midas Civil is the most powerful software for analyzing and designing steel, concrete, wood, aluminum and composite structures.Experienced engineers who have a good understanding of the concept of modeling, analysis and design of a structure are well aware of this well-known and professional software.Three years of experience, along with suggestions from engineers working with Midas Civil, have made it the most applicable design and analysis software available in the global marketplace.The toolbars embedded in the graphical user interface make it easy to enter the information needed for modeling, analysis, and design.
2. Equivalent Beam Stress Results for Construction Stage Analysis • Equivalent beam stresses including Von–Mises stresses of the steel composite sections are now provided for the construction stage analysis. • Steel–I (Type 1), Steel–Tub (Type1), and Steel–Box (Type 1) are available
3. HL–93TDM considering 100% combined effect of two tandems as per AASHTO LRFD Vehicle Load • According to C3.6.1.3.1 AASHTO LRFD 2020, one hundred percent of the combined effect of the two design tandems and the design lane load should be used to investigate negative moment and reactions at interior supports. • HL–93TDMvehicle load in AASHTO LRFD Load provides the option to consider the combined effect
4. Time Dependent Material as per IRC 112: 2020 • The time dependent materials for creep/shrink age and compressive strength as per IRC 112:2020 can be applied
5. Response Spectrum function as per SP 268.1325800.2016 • The Response Spectrum function provides the design spectrum as per SP 268.1325800.2016
