Conceptual modelling

Design of small regular steel structures made of beams and plates

The GeniE Lite software module is a tool for design of regular steel structures made up of beams and plates. GeniE Lite is based upon the use of concepts to represent the physical structure and loads that it supports.

What you get with GeniE Lite conceptual modelling

Quick and efficient design of small and regular steel structures made from beams and plates
Modelling, analysis, results processing and code checking are performed from the same graphical user environment
Intelligent modelling of structure and load
Data exchange with standard office reporting products
Results used in design process, e.g. bending moment diagrams, plate stresses, and code check results of beams according to AISC, API, Norsok or Eurocode Standards
Includes user manual, tutorials and how-to videos

Key benefits of GeniE Lite software

Intuitive and integrated 3D user interface covering modelling, analysis, results presentation and start of Framework (fatigue analysis of frame models) code checking
Concept modelling techniques to focus real structures instead of analytical models
Flexible naming, the user may use same names as real structure
Import of data from other finite element systems and build them to form one concept model
Easy to select from browser or graphics mode and make re-usable sets for later usage in the design process
Automatic creation of finite element model based on user-defined rules or system default settings
New model created each time the structure model or equipment configuration is changed
All operations are logged using a command language (Jscript) – these files may be used and edited by others to create new models
Easy to verify all steps in the design process either from 2D/3D graphical files or from exporting tabulated reports
