1. How to link a CAD cross-section with an analysis model at once?

   Wouldn't it be convenient if the sections of the drawings you have could be seamlessly integrated with the analysis program without any additional work? Integrating analysis models with irregular section structures, without the need for section extraction or calculation! In this content, we will show you how to easily solve the calculation of irregular sections when creating structural analysis models by integrating CIVIL NX and CAD.

Geometric Properties of Sections

The geometric properties of sections, which are indicators of the structural performance and load resistance capacity of sections, are characterized by the section shape and dimensions, regardless of material properties. These section properties are needed to calculate the bending/shear stresses, deflections, strength, and buckling, which are essential factors for the overall structural design of bridges.
