Benefits of PONTI®compositesteel EXPERT

The programme system PONTI® compositesteel EXPERT also facilitates the analysis of mixed spatial wood, steel or reinforced concrete systems. PONTI® compositesteel EXPERT is a powerful FEM system for structural and bridge engineering and in particular offers the following advantages:

Graphic-oriented input with optimum control of all modifications
Graphic-oriented surface during design with an interactive optimisation of the cross section
Fast and safe processing of bridge systems on the basis of axial data
The calculation/design is performed in accordance with the overall cross section method
Simple acquisition of the system, cross-section and load histories of construction stages
Forces of the cracking in the concrete chord are considered
Automatic calculation of the secondary effects caused by creep and shrinkage
Powerful and economic design according to the DIN technical report, EC & EN with clear result graphics and specific detail information
Document output in the RTprint / RTF format in accordance with the user’s requirements
