Structural Sections Q
I am trying to figure out if this will do structural sections. I need to combine 3 4 ft sections together to get a bending moment and deflection.
Hi Bradley,
You certainly can. We have a section builder that allows you to build custom sections, add multiple shapes and load from a range of libraries including US, European and Australian.
Hope this helps, if you have further questions please do not hesitate to reply on this thread or email me directly on sam@skyciv.com
