Analysis and design of sections under load

AdSec demonstrates how sections respond to combined axial load and bending moments. It can analyse concrete, steel and fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP) sections and compound sections.

AdSec is ideal for tasks such as analysing a bridge beam for cracking under load, designing a composite mega column, checking a pre-stressed floor or finding the capacity of a pile. AdSec is also valuable in refurbishment projects, enabling engineers to calculate the capacity of existing beams and columns, and showing how much improvement can be achieved from FRP reinforcement or adding extra concrete to the section.
