FIN EC Software

Section

The program calculates cross-sectional characteristics of arbitrary cross-sections. Both different shapes and materials can be combined in the software.

This program is distributed as a part of these products: FIN 2D, FIN 3D, Steel, Steel Fire, Concrete (and as part of any programs package).

Main features

  • Database of various cross-sections (steel hot rolled profiles, the most common concrete, timber and masonry cross-sections)
  • Database of materials
  • Input of arbitrary shapes using polygons, circles and arches
  • Openings
  • Tools for rotation, move and mirror of cross-sections or their parts
  • Compination of more materials in one cross-section
  • Real (with consideration of used materials) or ideal (recalculated according to the given material) cross-sectional characteristics
  • Detailed text and brief graphical reports

Results

  • Centre of gravity of the cross-section
  • Cross-sectional area and perimeter
  • First and second moments of area
  • Major and minor radius of gyration
  • Section moduli at edge points of the cross-section
  • Ellipse and polar moment of inertia
  • Second moments of area and radii of gyration
  • Torsional constant (Saint Venant torsion)

The program works independently however it can be used in cooperation with programs FIN 2D, FIN 3D, Steel, Steel Fire and Concrete for input of cross-sections which are not included in the database of these programs.

Associated Applications

Cross-sections created in this product can be used in following programs:

  • FIN 3D – Analysis of 3D truss and frame structures
  • FIN 2D – Analysis of 2D truss and frame structures

Following designing programs are able to verify resistance of cross-sections created in the program Section:

  • Concrete – Verification of RC members
  • Steel – Verification of general steel members
  • Steel Fire – Verification of fire resistance of steel members

FIN EC saves your time!

Easy to Use

Each program solves one task. The software therefore stays intuitive and easy to use.

Verifiable Calculations

Easily verify the applicability and validity of the analysis.

Comprehensive Outputs

Text and graphical outputs with a possibility of complex output range editing.

I appreciate the simple, clear, and quickly performed verifying of elements, whether manually entered internal forces, calculated by the program itself, or imported from a csv file.

Ondrej Klecka, Chief structural engineer, KONSEO s.r.o.

The strength of these programs is their ease of use and clear output documentation. You can choose between summary outputs on one page or more detailed ones.

Vaclav Beranek, Chief structural engineer, C-ENG s.r.o.
I can shift during work seamlessly from one program to another, and the data is always synchronized automatically.
