Easy to use graphical user interface. The input of the model is straight forward. |
Equilibrium only. Just set the member forces in statical indeterminate models. You don't have to assign any member stiffness. |
Failure mechanisms are detected and drawn. That way it is easy to find missing members in the model or to prove that a system is kinematic and contradicts equilibrium. |
No unnecessary bearings or members are required. Fachwerk allows unstable, kinematic models, as long as equilibrium conditions are fulfilled. |
