Technia BRIGADE Plus 2024.1

BRIGADE/Plus provides an easy-to-use environment for modeling all types of bridges and civil engineering structures. Intuitive user interface integrates modeling, analysis, and results visualization. The feature-based, parametric concept allows efficient modeling of complex structures.

BRIGADE/Plus provides a full range of advanced capabilities such as transient and steady state dynamic analysis, nonlinear material modeling and contact interactions. The results are easily displayed as 3D graphs and 2D graphs. The built-in report generator can be used to generate input and output reports efficiently. Results can be automatically exported to the ConcreteDesigner rebar module or to the customer's rebar design tool.

Main features:

• Easy-to-use environment for modeling any type of bridges and civil structures.
• The parametric, feature-based concept allows for quick and simple modeling of complex geometries.
• Complete set of analysis workflows: Including static, heat transfer, dynamic & coupling.
• Market-leading technique for evaluating the response of moving loads.
• Effective analysis of dynamic response of moving loads.
• BRIGADE/Plus allows prestress analysis.
• Modern load combining facility with automation in mind.
• Analyze the impact of segment construction by adding and removing parts of the structure, loads, boundary conditions, etc. during the analysis process.
• BRIGADE/Plus provides the ability to include non-linear material behavior.
• BRIGADE/Plus provides powerful exposure.
• Many post-processing features to enable efficient interpretation of results.
