Autodesk® Robot™ Structural Analysis Professional 2010

Autodesk Robot Structural Analysis Professional 2010 software provides a scalable, country-specific analysis solution for the structural engineer to help analyze many types of structures, including buildings, bridges, civil and specialty structures. Autodesk Robot Structural Analysis Professional calculates a wide variety of structures with a comprehensive collection of design codes, delivering results in minutes, not hours. This structural engineering software is versatile enough for simple structural frame analysis or complex finite element analysis and offers smooth interoperability with Autodesk companion products as well as an open application programming interface (API).
What’s New

Enhanced Modeling and Collaboration Capabilities

* Integrate more efficiently between Autodesk Robot Structural Analysis Professional and Autodesk® Revit® Structure.
* New approach to building structures with the added ability to create objects such as beams columns, and walls in lieu of bars and panels.
* Import DXF™/DWG files as a drawing background, making it possible to define 3D structural models on the basis of architectural plans and elevations.

More Improved Design and Analysis Experience

* New harmonic and damping analysis parameters have been added, as well as a more improved and amended footfall analysis.
* New national reinforcement, load combination and steel codes have been implemented into the application, as well as regional codes for Sweden, Australia and Italy.

Greater Usability

* Enhanced creation of load distributions allows users to better analyze load distribution to beams, columns and walls.
* Work more easily with improved, user-friendly steel connections definitions, with updated dialog boxes.
* Work more easily with Eurocode safety factors with a comprehensive dialog box that contains all Eurocodes available in the program and an additional user-defined set of parameters.

The predefined calculation models of slab, diaphragm, and deck decrease a number of degrees of freedom and eliminate vibration modes that are negligible for the seismic analysis (such as vibrations of slabs in their planes.


The trapezoidal and triangular method can distribute the load from the cladding to all objects located in the contour and plane of the cladding.
