SAP2000
SAP2000 is CSI's general-purpose structural analysis and design software for modeling buildings, bridges, industrial facilities, towers, and other structural systems. Engineers can combine frame, shell, solid, cable, and link elements with linear, dynamic, and nonlinear analysis, then review forces, deformations, stresses, and code-based design results in one Windows application. Choosing it well means checking the required analysis methods, design codes, license level, interoperability, hardware, and review process—not simply whether a model will run.
