SHAPE-MASSIVE can be run independently. This program
calculates the cross-section properties for thick-walled
sections of any shape and determines their stresses. Besides,
a reinforced concrete design can be performed for axial force,
shear forces, torsion and biaxial bending moments according to
DIN 1045-1, ORM B 4700 and Eurocode 2.
There exists an interface to RSTAB and RFEM: SHAPE-MASSIVE
sections are also accessible in the framework and FEA
programs, and vice versa it is possible to import the internal
forces from RSTAB and RFEM into SHAPE-MASSIVE for the design.
The sections can be defined graphically, in tables or by
importing a DXF file.
