Description

Numerous professionals utilize VisualAnalysis (VA) to efficiently meet their project deadlines. Users frequently commend it as "exceptional value" and "incredibly user-friendly." It provides essential tools that are budget-conscious. The software allows for the creation of 3D models for a variety of structures, including complete buildings, tanks, and towers, alongside offering both static and dynamic response analysis capabilities. It performs design code verifications for materials such as steel, wood, concrete, cold-formed steel, and aluminum. VisualAnalysis features comprehensive analysis and design functionalities, including automatic plate meshing, a command window, nonlinear elements, and dynamic time history analysis. Its 3D static and dynamic finite element analysis (FEA) is suitable for civil, mechanical, aerospace, and other types of structural evaluations. Additionally, it includes optional support for building code load combinations. Users can easily apply loads, distribute area loads to structural members, and manage gravity and lateral loads within the same project. The software enables the creation of frame, truss, or FEA models for nearly any type of structure, with the ability to sketch, generate, and import designs from CAD or BIM tools like Revit. With its rapid static analysis, P-delta calculations, AISC Direct methods, dynamic assessments, and nonlinear capabilities, it delivers proven and validated results for engineering professionals. Overall, VisualAnalysis stands out as a versatile solution for various engineering needs.
