FRAME
Structural analysis software
Modelling | Analysis
Frame Analysis performs frame and finite element analyses of 2D and 3D structures.
It can perform linear and non-linear static analysis as well as buckling, modal, harmonic, and seismic analyses of 3D models.
Frame is easy to learn and simple to use. Build your model using a combination of beams, shells, and solid finite elements. Analysis results can be exported to various other PROKON modules for member or connection design. Results can be viewed and added to a calcsheet in graphic format or analysis reports.

PLANE STRESS
Finite element analysis of plane stress or strain problems
Analysis
The Plane Stress module can be used to perform a finite element analysis of a membrane of any general geometry subjected to plane stress or strain.
Combine simple polygons to model complex geometries. A suitable mesh is generated automatically. Multiple load cases comprising point loads and UDLs can be applied to the outline of the model.

What makes this module unique?
- Analyse plane stress and strain problems.
- Simple input for geometry and loading.
- Automatic mesh generation
SINGLE SPAN BEAM
Analysis of 2D single span or cantilever beams
Analysis
The Single Span Beam module can be used to quickly analyse a beam. The beam can be a single span beam, or a single span taken from a continuous beam with the appropriate end conditions. The analysis results of steel beams can be post-processed with the steel member design module for combined stress.

What makes this module unique?
- Simple input
- Unlimited load cases
- Access to the large library in the PROKON section database
- Output includes deflection, shear force and bending moments
- Export results to Combine for design
ELASTIC SUPPORT BEAM
Analysis of 2D beams on elastic support
Analysis
Elastic Support Beam was developed for rapid analysis of a beam or a slab on an elastic foundation.
This module allows for the analysis of beams or slabs with varying cross-sections along their lengths and the elastic foundation can include variations or gaps in the elastic medium and rigid supports. An unlimited number of loads may be entered.
