SAP2000 v.14

[chipkhan]

The SAP name has been synonymous with state-of-the-art ****ytical methods since its introduction over 30 years ago. SAP2000 follows in the same tradition featuring a very sophisticated, intuitive and versatile user interface powered by an unmatched ****ysis engine and design tools for engineers working on transportation, industrial, public works, sports, and other facilities.

From its 3D object based graphical modeling environment to the wide variety of ****ysis and design options completely integrated across one powerful user interface, SAP2000 has proven to be the most integrated, productive and practical general purpose structural program on the market today.

This intuitive interface allows you to create structural models rapidly and intuitively without long learning curve delays. Now you can harness the power of SAP2000 for all of your ****ysis and design tasks, including small day-to-day problems. Complex Models can be generated and meshed with powerful Templates built into the interface.

The Advanced ****ytical Techniques allow for Step-by-Step Large Deformation ****ysis, Multiple P-Delta, Eigen and Ritz ****yses, Cable ****ysis, Tension or Compression Only ****ysis, Buckling ****ysis, Blast ****ysis, Fast Nonlinear ****ysis for Dampers, Base Isolators and Support Plasticity, Energy Methods for Drift Control and Segmental Construction ****ysis.

Bridge Designers can use SAP2000 Bridge Templates for generating Bridge Models, Automated Bridge Live Load ****ysis and Design, Bridge Base Isolation, Bridge Construction Sequence ****ysis, Large Deformation Cable Supported Bridge ****ysis and Pushover ****ysis.

SAP2000 is for everyone! SAP2000 is for every project! From a simple small 2D static frame ****ysis to a large complex 3D nonlinear dynamic ****ysis, SAP2000 is the answer to all structural ****ysis and design needs.
