Abstract:

This two-dimensional 2-D frame analysis link program, LINK2D, provides the external link necessary for bridging the gap in data from rudimentary analysis design capabilities to data from more advanced structural analysisdesign computer programs. The newly created data base could thereby be used throughout the building design process. Data generated in STRUCTURE, a module of the Computer-Aided Engineering and Architectural Design System CAEADS, have been used to create input data for CFRAME andor the 2-D capability of GTSTRUDL. CFRAME is a product of the computer-aided Structural Engineering CASE project and GTSTRUDL is a proprietary software program developed by and for the benefit of the Georgia Institute of Technology.
