...

• No longer use the effective moment of inertia method but the bilinear deflection method
• Replaced effective section properties from service tables with cracked section properties
• New method is described, with a hand calculation, in the help page

...

v3.6.2.0

09 Sep 2020
Torsion Bug Fixes

• Program now appropriately includes the topping when calculating the horizontal shear area using the ACI method
• Fixed labels on coordinate system in 3D model

v3.6.1.0

12 Aug 2020
Torsion Bug Fixes

• Slender Spandrel method is now accounting for bearing length
  • Previously the end region was measured from centerline of bearing, this was causing the transition region to start too soon
• Zia Hsu Method now properly checks for plate bending near the ends and had a bug fixed in the Vc calculation

v3.6.0.0

11 Aug 2020

• Fixed bug introduced in v3.5 where the end of the strand was starting fully developed
• Added flexure point moments

v3.5.0.0

10 Aug 2020

• Fse for transfer length now uses the lose computed at the center of the strand
• 'd' is now computed for sections where the reinforcement has no effective area (fully undeveloped)
• Added options to ignore loading on cantilevers to assist in modeling simply supported members
• Updated deflection calculations to properly use Eci for selfweight and prestress deflections per the PCI Design Handbook
• Added fixity conditions to model fixed ends
  • Selected on the structural model tab
  • Can chose at what stage the member becomes fixed

v3.4.0.0

06 Jul 2020

• Transfer stress limits are now available for use for handling stages when member is not prestressed
• Fixed issue where 'Show Additional Checks' was not available for printing options
• At will not longer be reported being negative
• Can now position reinforcement in topping
• Fixed issue where shear and torsion table were not correctly reporting controlling values
• All tables now in feet for position on the member
• Remove custom strand size

v3.3.0.0

08 May 2020

• Hollow Core Slab Load Distribution
  • Added input on Structural model tab for load distribution of non-area loads for hollow core slabs
• New Shear Tables
  • Added Av Required for Vcw and Vci for Double Ts
  • Redesigned layout of tables
• User can now edit locations where analysis is performed
  • Interface can be accessed from File → Analysis Points
• User can now edit locations where results are displayed
  • Interface can be accessed from File
• Added option to ignore stresses in topping
  • Can now ignore topping stresses. Their values in in tables will be replace with a '-'
