Analysis Technique
Static Non Linear Analysis using a combination of Force Density Method (FDM) and the Direct Stiffness Method (DSM)
Traffic Systems Configurations
One Point, and Two Point model.
Wind Load Modeling
Engineers can specify the wind speed and depending on selection of signal lights (or signs), the total area exposed to wind load is computed. The wind loads are calculated in each cycle of the non linear process.
Enhanced User Interface
User interface that facilitates model building and viewing results.
Analysis Options
2 options:
Analyze the modelCheck the model for adequacy
Design Method
The FDOT Design Standard Index 17725 is implemented. For Foundation design, Brom’s method is used, based on the supplied Phi factor (strength reduction factor)
