CivilFEM - is a specialized add-on to ANSYS for the construction tasks, developed by Spanish company Ingeciber. By embedding in the menu ANSYS, CivilFEM complements his broad-purpose capabilities, the usual estimator for the buildings, grounds and foundations, bridges, tunnels, dams, etc., simplifies and automates both pre and postprocessing. CivilFEM can be purchased and used as an addition to the ANSYS / Professional, Structural, Mechanical and Multiphysics. CivilFEM has a modular structure: Intro - the base product Adv. Prestressed Concrete - prestressed concrete Bridges & Civil Nonlinearities - Bridges and nonlinear models of concrete (creep, shrinkage, cracks) Geotechnical - Soil Mechanics CivilFEM Intro Library materials (including more than a hundred of soil and rock) and standard cross sections (CEB-FIP, Eurocode 2,3, ACI, AISC, British standard, UNE, ASTM, EHE, EA, GB-50010, GB-50017 ) specialized tools for preprocessing beam and shell structures Composite section Placement and selection of valves Special tools for combining the cases of loading Seismic Checking for compliance with building codes Adv.Prestressed Concrete Special tools for designing \ selection of pre-stressed reinforcing elements Analysis of loss of pre-stress Bridges & Civil Nonlinearities concrete shrinkage and creep special master for constructing geometrical and finite element models of bridges on the principal seheme and section canvases tools to build standard and custom sections carrying canvases Job stress: moving vehicle, etc. and combining the calculated cases simulation of the construction (load during construction) Geotechnical Checking for compliance with European and American standards Geotechnical Library properties of soils and rocks Deep foundation The foundations are shallow and superficial laying Retaining walls Tunnels Stability of slopes Filtering Extras. Information: This is an additional module for Ansys. Apart from Ansys it will not work. CivilFEM 12 only works with Ansys 12 To work CivilFEM necessary after installation of utility Administration Utility to specify the license file Civil.ath. This file is in your License File distribution program. When the program pops up an error message "The encoded line cannot be properly interpreted", but it does not affect the efficiency of the program.
