The latest statics2d update introduces powerful new calculation capabilities that give structural engineers greater visibility into the performance of their systems made of KLH® - CLT. We've expanded the analysis output to include ULS resistances, stability factors, and SLS single load deformations, all integrated seamlessly into both the application interface and PDF reports.
New calculation outputs
ULS resistances and stability factors
statics2d now displays Ultimate Limit State (ULS) resistances for each element in your system. Combined with the new stability factor outputs (kc,y, kc,z, and kcrit), you gain a comprehensive understanding of how your elements perform under load combinations.
These values are exposed both in the interactive results view and in the detailed PDF printout, allowing you to verify your designs against code requirements without external calculations.
SLS single load deformations
Understanding how your system responds to individual load cases is essential for serviceability checks. The new SLS single load deformation calculation breaks down deflection contributions from each load category, making it easier to identify which loads dominate the serviceability behaviour of your structure.
Results are presented in the updated PDF report with clear tabular formatting for quick reference during design reviews.
Improved PDF reports
Table of contents
Navigating complex structural reports is now easier than ever. PDF exports automatically include a table of contents that links directly to each section of the document. Jump to cross-section properties, element results, or vibration analysis with a single click.
Scalable element labels
For systems with many elements, we've implemented font size scaling for element labels in SVG images. Labels automatically adjust their size to maintain readability without overlapping, ensuring your printouts remain clean and professional regardless of system complexity.
French national design standard updates
We've refined the French national design standard (NF EN 1995-1-1:2010) implementation with updated flags, naming conventions, and displayed norms. Projects using the French national design standard now correctly reflect the appropriate regulatory framework in all interface elements and reports.
