Description |
Unit |
|
|
Analysis setting |
|
Only for linear material and static analysis. |
Nodal data |
|
|
Frame element |
conditional |
A frame element in Muliframe having stiffness on the compression face and
the tension face is converted into the frame element having stiffness on
both faces. |
Support condition |
|
|
Spring support |
conditional |
A spring support having stiffness on the compression face and the tension
face is converted to a spring support having stiffness on both faces. |
End consition of frame element |
conditional |
A feature for keeping the axial force based on the member’s end condition from being transferred cannot be converted. |
End shape of frame element |
× |
Offset function cannot be converted. |
Spring element |
× |
Since API of Multiframe is unreleased, they are not converted. They will
have to be created as new spring elements in Engineer's Studio®. |
Rigid element |
|
Each degree of freedom (DOF) of a generic joint will be assigned in the
same manner in which each DOF of the master joint are assigned. |
Plate element |
× |
Not converted since API of Multiframe is unreleased. |
Group data |
|
|
Cross-sectional data |
conditional |
1) Since API of Multiframe is unreleased, only the standard cross section of Multiframe and the cross section registered from Custom 1 to Custom 3 are converted.
2) Since the parameters concerning sectional dimensions of tapers are not equivalent to the parameters within the cross section database of ES, the former parameters are not converted.
3) Since the tf parameters of bulb flat sections are not equivalent to any parameters within the cross section database of ES, the former parameters are not converted.
4)Since hat sections, LSB sections, and sections with unknown shape all
do not correspond to any sectional shape within the cross section database
of ES, these will be converted as numerical sections. |
Material |
conditional |
1) "Iron" will be converted as steel plate material.
2) Since "Alminium" material and "Timber" material
do not exist in Engineer's Studio®, they will be converted as elastic material.
3) Since "Unknown" materials do not exist in Engineer's Studio®,
they will not be converted. |

Basic load |
|
|
Dead load |
|
However, when there are multiple dead loads, the first dead load will be converted as a dead load. Other dead loads will be converted as basic load equivalent to the first dead load. |
Combination load |
|
However, the combined load within the combined load will be separated into basic load and then become a combined load. |
Hydrostatic pressure load, Flow load,
Buoyancy load, Wave load, Wind load |
× |
Since API of Multiframe is unreleased, they will not be converted. They will have to be assigned manually in Engineer's Studio®. |
Seismic load |
× |
Since API of Multiframe is unreleased, they will not be converted. They will have to be assigned manually in Engineer's Studio®. |
Panel load |
× |
Since API of Multiframe is unreleased, they will not be converted. They will have to be assigned manually in Engineer's Studio®. |
Temperature load |
conditional |
However, if there is a temperature difference between the upper plane and the lower plane of the member section, the average value of the temperature difference between these two planes are assigned. |
Extraction load |
