Announcing the launch of Sigma-X post tensioning analysis and design software for slabs, floor systems and bridges - designed by engineers for engineers.

Announcing the launch of Sigma-X Post Tensioning Analysis and Design Software For slabs, floor systems and bridges - designed by engineers for engineers Sigma-X, the Irish based structural engineering software developer has just announced the launch of its suite of post tension and pre tension analysis and design software products to take place in January 2006 The first products to market will be Sigma-X Post Tension Structural and Sigma-X Post Tension Bridge

Both have been developed in the.net framework giving them superior functionality and ease of use.

In fact, thanks to their highly intuitive interface and easily to follow help files and video demonstrations, they are practically training free.

Sigma-X Post Tension is set to become the market-leading tool for the complete design of slabs, floor systems and bridges permitting analysis of bonded and unbonded pre stressing, allowing for voids and cracking and calculating losses due to creep and shrinkage.

It offers multiple cross-section options and tendons may be banded or distributed.

Where Sigma-X Post Tension really has the edge over all others is when it comes to its interoperability with other software applications, its report writing capabilities and its unbeatable price.

The development of Sigma-X Section has been led by Sigma-X MD Dr James Lee who has a PhD in computational mechanics, and many years experience in the structural engineering industry, academia and the structural engineering/FE software industry.

James says that in approaching the development of the product he and his team had three main priorities - 'to make it user- friendly, to maximize the practical applications of the results generated and to achieve this at a cost which is not prohibitive'.

Sigma-X also produces Sigma-X Section a highly versatile, highly functional Section Property Calculator and Sigma-X Designer enabling the checking of structural stresses extracted from FE Analysis or stiffness-based software programmes.

All Sigma-X products are designed to function either as stand alone elements or as additional components to any finite element analysis of stiffness method based software programmes.
