Code checking of steel plate structures - Platework

Interactive program for code checking of plane stiffened steel plate structures

Code checking of plane stiffened steel plate structures

The Platework software module is an interactive program for code checking of plane stiffened steel plate structures based on results from FE analysis. The program has features for manual input of code check data and extensive automatic features for extraction of such data from FE analyses. It may also be used as a design tool independently of an FE analysis.
