Consultancies
and Engineering companies are faced with a forever tightening
time schedule to deliver the very best and economical design
and/or product to market in the shortest time possible.
Now as we
develop into the new technology age, various analytical software
methods have developed allowing us to test our products and/or
designs and take full advantage of the latest computer power
now available. One
such product, which continues this trend, is Strand7.
Strand7 is an easy and affordable Finite Element Analysis
package designed to be used in small and large Consulting &
Engineering companies, involved in many different types of
industries. As a additional feature Euro Technology has
developed a structural steel code compliance to SANS
10162:1-2005 with the use of the Strand7 API.
Strand7 is the ultimate tool allowing you to get your idea to
market in the quickest time, as well as providing you with that
competitive edge!

Full-featured finite element
analysis - designed and built for Windows®.
|
| Strand7’s
fully-integrated visual environment - combined with a suite
of powerful solvers - gives you unparalleled functionality
in a single application. Construct models, run analyses and
investigate results simultaneously using a seamless
interface. |
|
 |
| Advanced
modelling at your fingertips... |
|
...a flexible
working environment... |
Strand7 lets
you build models quickly. Create, delete and manipulate
elements with a comprehensive set of tools, automatic
meshing and unlimited undo. Organise a complicated model
into a simple set of parts using the Group Tree. Define your
own coordinate systems and beam cross-sections. Check mesh
quality with aspect ratio and warping contours and free edge
detection. |
|
Strand7 harnesses the power
of Windows®. Open multiple models at the same time.
Cut-and-paste elements in 3D - even between models - and
copy data to and from other Windows® programs. Import
geometry data from IGES, ACIS and DXF files. Choose drawing
styles and colours.
 Set the
physical units for viewing and entering data. Dynamically
rotate, pan and zoom in real time with a single click.

 |
| ..clear, detailed
results... |
|
..easy, professional reports. |
 |
|
 |
| Strand7 offers a full set of previewing and printing tools
for documenting and reporting your work. Choose your own
fonts, titleblocks and logos for a consistent, professional
look across all your printing. |
 |
|
Strand7 gives you a range of result
options. Visualise results with contour maps, vector maps and
X-Y graphs. Use the Peek tool to inspect result quantities at
any point, directly on the model. View, sort and filter
results with the Result Listings spreadsheet. |
