Modelling and Analysis and Training (1 Day)

Software: SuperSTRESS

Who will benefit?

Bridge and structural engineers, either new users or users familiar with SuperSTRESS wanting to improve their techniques to speed up model generation and reporting.  The training will give a complete overview of all the features and options available to the engineer allowing them to free up more time by increasing their skill and efficiency in using the software.

What the course covers:

• Modelling techniques - quick and easy setup
• Material and sections - input and selection
• Default libraries - creation and storage
• Use and control of tabular input - sorting, filtering etc
• Copy and paste and paste special - within tables for simple addition of repetitive data
• Use configuration of graphical display - properties
• Re-ordering and removing gaps - for more efficient calculation and ease of use
• Graphical manipulation of the model - mirror, translate, copy etc
• Use and control of structure sets
• Use and control of loadcase sets
• Creating and modifying load areas and area loading
• Analysis options - non-linear functions (support limits, member limits, large displacement analysis)
• Configurable options - graphics options, units, formats, colours, fonts etc
• Reporting techniques
• Common mistakes and problems to avoid
• Technical support - options and availability for quickest response times
• Other modules available and future development plans

Training will be partly lecture format with worked examples (your own if you pass them to us in advance), training notes and hands-on usage to promote confidence in using the software.

If you feel you have the basic knowledge then why not sign up for a half day Top-up training.

Top-up Modelling and Analysis Training (½ Day)

Who will benefit?

Current users of the SuperSTRESS software wanting to improve their modelling and techniques and gain a more efficient usage of the software. More detailed examples will be covered exploring further areas of the software and new modules.
