DLT - Continous beam: The DLT software analyses simple and continuous, beams or slabs, with up to a maximum of 12 spans and the option of cantilever ends.
Beam Types
- Reinforced concrete slab
- Reinforced concrete beam
- Timber beam
- Beam without reinforcement analysis
Design
Stress analysis of concrete, steel or timber members given existing or required dimensions.
- Reinforced concrete calculation after EN 1992-1-1:2004 with national annex of The Netherlands, Belgium or Czech Republic.
- Timber construction standards: ÖNorm-EN 1995-1-1:2006 (other local NA will follow shortly)
- Crack and shrinkage design (reinforcement dimension analysis) and composite stress check.
- Service life and durability requirements.
- Evaluation of creep coefficient and shrinkage strain in serviceability limit state.
- Optimization of timber beam sections.
- Section Stiffness may be set as constant across the beam span or may vary as required.
- Joints are possible.
- Shear deformations can be optionally considered in timber beams.
- Analysis of shear joints for flat and T-slabs.
- Shear capacity check of sup-port/connection points of T-slabs.
- Deflection calculation per condition for reinforced concrete cross sections
- Selection options concerning the durability requirements
Openings
It is possible to calculate reinforcement requirements in order to incorporate rectangular or circular openings in beam webs.
Support reactions
Support reactions are calculated according to a user selectable FOS.
Interfaces
The loads can be shared with other optional modules such as Column analysis B5
