With Roof Bracing EC, you can create a complete structural analysis of a roof bracing for a steel hall in just a few minutes.
Roof Bracing EC
Automatically determines wind loads
Takes stabilization loads into account
Calculates compression members
Calculates diagonals
Calculates connection details such as bolting of diagonals to gusset plates
Calculations and dimensioning are performed according to the current EuroCode standard by default, but can also be performed according to DIN 18800 if required.
Roof Bracings EC is a product of the STAHL 2000 series and is available both as a stand-alone program and as part of the Program Packages Hall and Static Analysis.
Thanks to STAHL 2000's proven tab system, the calculation and dimensioning of the roof bracings is completed in a minimum of time.
Roof Bracing EC responds flexibly to your needs!
Depending on the type of hall, you simply select a roof bracing for a symmetrical pitched roof hall or a monopitched roof hall. You decide whether the roof bracing should be designed for wind pressure, wind suction, stabilization loads or any combination of these.
After specifying the number of trusses and profiles to be stabilized, Roof Bracing EC automatically calculates the stabilization load.
A few details about the wind load zone and the height of the structure are sufficient to determine the wind loads.
With Roof Bracing EC, you can also dimension all affected components directly - simply, quickly and in accordance with standards!
The diagonal members can be designed either as angle sections with a bolted connection to a gusset plate, as round bars with a welded connection to a flat bar or as threaded rods.
Roof Bracing EC dimensions compression members either as I-shaped rolled or sheet metal profiles, or as round tubes.
The standard output system of STAHL 2000 is used to output the results.
You can preview the output on the screen, display graphics (system, influence lines) and output to a printer, PDF or Word document.
Our solutions for structural analysis in steel construction are used thousands of times worldwide.

With Mathcad you can easily create a calculation document with text, images and formulas. Similar to a text editor, but the formulas are automatically mathematically exact and the formula content is not just text, but variable values.
In our opinion, Mathcad is one of the most underrated programs and should not be missing in any engineering office!
