SAP2000 is a universal civil engineering software that is ideally suited for analyzing and designing any type of structural system. Basic and advanced systems, from 2D to 3D, from simple geometry to complex, can be modeled, analyzed, designed, and optimized using a handy and intuitive object-based modeling environment that simplifies and optimizes the engineering process. The SAPFire ® Analysis Engine integrated with SAP2000 runs a sophisticated finite element analysis method. An additional suite of advanced analysis features are available to users with state-of-the-art non-linear and dynamic viewing. Developed by engineers for effective engineering, SAP2000 is the ideal software tool for users of all levels of experience who design every structural system.
Integrated modeling templates, code-based load assignments, advanced analysis options, design optimization procedures and customizable output portfolios are coordinated with a powerful platform to make SAP2000 especially useful for professionals.
SAP2000 is also an excellent educational level. Open SAP2000 and follow the Watch & Learn video series to get not only instructions on software usage, but also insight into design technology and practice.
