AxisVM Structural Steel Design Add-on Modules

Steel Design Add-on Modules are available as follows:

bulletSD1: Steel Design (Eurocode 3)
bulletSD2: Connection Design (Eurocode 3)
bulletSDNEN: Steel Design (NEN 6770/71)
bulletSDSTAS: Steel Design (STAS 10108)

Steel Beam-Column Connection Design

AxisVM calculates the moment-curvature diagram, the resistance moment and initial strength of steel column-beam bolted connections according to  Eurocode3 (Part 1.8 Design of Joints). This design is used with rolled or welded I shapes and the program will allow the addition of horizontal, diagonal bracing and web thickening plates for increased strength. The program will calculate the web shear and identify holes near the connection which can be adjusted for size. Multiple beams can be selected if materials and cross sections are the same.
