Example Problem 1 (based on the 2015 version)

•Overview - Example 1

•Step 1. Preparation of the input data

•Step 2. Define Materials

•Step 3. Define Sections

•Step 4. Draw the Model on screen

•Step 5. Edit Nodes

•Step 6. Edit Elements

•Step 7. Define Nodal Loads

•Step 8. Define Elemental Loads

•Step 9. Define Body (Acceleration) Loads

•Step 10. Run the Analysis

•Step 11. View N, V, M Diagrams, Model Deformation and Free Body Diagram

•Step 12. View the analytical results

Note that this first example in based on the 2015 version of EngiLab Frame.2D. The second example is based on the 2022 version. There are some differences between the two versions of the program, the most important being the introduction of Units in the 2022 version. Before that, only consistent units were supported by the program.

Although the first example is based on an older version of the software, the user can still follow the steps described and generate this Model also in newer versions of the software such as EngiLab Frame.2D 2022.
