International version of Analysis Support Service

Expanding UC-win/FRAME(3D)/ Engineer's Studio®Analysis Support Service and Geo Technical Analysis Support Service overseas.

  • This international version of the UC-win/FRAME(3D)/ Engineer's Studio® Analysis Support Service" and "Geo Technical Analysis Support Service"(available in English, Chinese, and Korean) is for users outside Japan that are using UC-win/FRAME(3D), Engineer's Studio®, Geo Technical Analysis series (GeoFEAS3D, UWLC, LEM3D, VG-Flow), and users in Japan that are taking orders for the work to be conducted outside Japan.

    Since the service commenced in 2004, FORUM8 has provided the service to more than 500 users, the kind of business achievement we are proud of. We provide a high quality service by using the state-of-the-art analysis method such as the Dynamic Nonlinear analysis and Geo Technical Dynamic FEM Analysis to give an accurate analysis result on various types of civil works and architectural structures. The products targeted for this service are UC-win/FRAME(3D), Engineer's Studio®, and Geo Technical Analysis series (GeoFEAS3D, UWLC, LEM3D, VG-Flow), all of which are being localized to English and other languages for the worldwide market, and are highly evaluated by many prestigious Universities in Japan as excellent Japanese software. The work flow of the service is same as that of the Japan; we ask users to prepare the structural drawing and other materials required for quotation, and our technical staff will confirm the materials to come up with the quotation.

Overview and business achievements of UC-win/FRAME(3D) and Engineer's Studio®
  • About 1500 users; many of them construction consultants, construction firms, and research institutes within universities in Japan and abroad; are enjoying the benefits of UC-win/FRAME (3D) since its first release in 2001. Engineer's Studio (R) which supports the nonlinear flat plate element came onto the market in 2009. The software is capable of running an advanced analysis using its 64-bit solver.

    FORUM8 is actively engaging in many types of research projects and thanks to their hard work, they won a championship for the content organized by the National Research Institute for Earth Science and Disaster Prevention in Japan called the "C1-2 3D blind analysis contest under the category of 'Analysis using fiber models'" in which contestants compete in how accurately they can analyze and predict the behavior of a full size reinforced-concrete bridge pier undergoing shear failure while it is on the E-Defense shaking table, using UC-win/FRAME(3D) in 2009, and back-to-back championships for the contest organized by the same institute called the "C1-6 3D blind analysis contest under the category of 'Destruction analysis'" in which contestants compete in how accurately they can predict the seismic resistance and destruction of a full size bridge made of natural mortar, using Engineer's Studio (R) in 2009 and 2010. These accomplishments are few of the many reasons why our products' accuracy level in terms of analysis and our analysis technology are highly regarded as simply the best.
Overview and business achievements of Geotechnical Analysis Series
  •  We support users with their geotechnical analysis and their creation of an initial FEM model. This is a technical service which supports our valued users who are doing any of the following using any one of our lineup of Geotechnical Analysis Series: Examining the effect of an earthquake-induced liquefaction (such as an uplift of underground structures and permanent displacement), designing countermeasures for liquefaction, assessing the up-rise of underground water level and how much ground stability was lost due to torrential rain and at the same time devising countermeasures, assessing the stability of a slope and then performing a quantitative assessment on its stability after the countermeasures have been implemented, and assessing the bearing capacity of a foundation or examining/designing a 3 dimensional countermeasure. Through this analysis support service, FORUM8' s technical support team and software development staffs will back you up. You' ll be amazed at how smoothly the entire process from data eation to visualization of an analysis result flows and how easily you can run a 3 dimensional FEM analysis, so please take advantage of this service by all means.
