Ultimate V.6.1.4.0

If the wall is sheathed from one side in strengthening, the option to use plate anchors has been added to the strengthening sections.

In the analysis according to TDY2007, wall investigations were made according to the classical analysis, while beam and foundation analyzes were made according to the finite element method.

Whether or not to calculate beam torsion reinforcement is optional.

Added option to select material from material library in Mantle material.

Arrangements were made regarding the shear strength of the mantle.

Improved the use of the material properties assigned in the analysis when assigning materials from the material library to the walls.

When the option to solve the structure with classical analysis is selected, the option to solve the beams and foundations with finite elements in the same analysis has been added.

Beam calculations updated for double-reinforced rectangular section. (Previously, it was made according to a single reinforced section)

It has been made optional to design the foundations as under-wall foundations or as continuous foundations. (For interactive analysis of the foundation)

Determining the beam reinforcements as horizontal bond beams or reinforced concrete beams has been made optional.

Added beam independent calculation module under Tools menu.

Added bidirectional data transfer with SAP2000 V24

A Check and Refresh button has been added to delete sections that have been assigned and then changed in the section properties window of the frame element from the section list used in the project.

Deleting unused sections from used ones during analysis was automated.

Added ability to transfer loads from tiles with rectangular shell elements.

For regular or irregular shell finite element mesh, triangular or rectangular shell finite element type, the option to divide the tile into meshes in X and Y directions smaller than the user-selectable maximum mesh width has been added.

For regular or irregular shell finite element mesh, triangular or rectangular shell finite element type, the option to divide user-selectable tile into specified number of meshes in X and Y directions has been added.

The irregular networking option has been removed from beta, the detected problems have been fixed and it is made usable. Added irregular meshing option for rectangular tiles as well.

Added 3D drawing of displacements for loadings in finite element analysis.

Convert polyline for dxf/dwg import and simplify drawing for import commands have been added under modify menu in drawing editor.

For sloped slabs, the regular triangular mesh option with 24 segments did not take into account the slope during meshing in previous versions (it was considered in the 8 segment triangular mesh option). Buildings with sloping floors should be resolved with regular mesh options

In structures with half basements, no support is assigned under the vertical carriers that sit on the floor node, and load transfer is ensured with the floor. (in irregular network or in case of node conflict).

The stiffness matrix of the triangular shell elements has been adjusted.

Deprecated StatiCAD-Solver (external equation solver), internal2 slow equation solver, considering that it is no longer needed after RAM improvements. 64-bit version is recommended for large projects.

Access violation error that can occur in some cases when adding a floor to the bottom option has been fixed.

Ultimate V.6.0.8.0

Added Sparse Matrix solution option, memory (RAM) usage is reduced by approximately 50% and analysis time is reduced by approximately 80%, although the results do not change.

Ultimate V.6.0.7.5

Adjustment was made in the approximation function for the connection of the nodes to the rigid diaphragm.

Creating a rigid diaphragm in vertical load analysis has been made optional.

With the new arrangements, StatiCAD frame finite element results give very close results with SAP2000 frame finite element results. Click for verification detail account or summary.

The linear load Extra G and Eksta Q loads assigned to the beams in SAP2000 export.

Added export feature to ETABS V18 and V19. (Import has not been added yet.)

Added Sky, Windows10, Tablet Light, Windows10 Dark, Windows10 Green, Windows10 Blue, Windows10 Purple, Glossy program color schemes for high resolution displays. Cyan Dusk and Cyan Night color schemes have been added to the standard color schemes. The relevant color scheme selection can be accessed from the program settings, and after changing the color scheme, the program must be closed and restarted.

Improvements have been made to the equation solver where more than 2GB of RAM is allocated per vector/matrix.

An analysis problem that may occur when the Keep all results in Memory option for 3D FEM Visualization is active has been fixed.

In the analysis of the half-basement building, the half-basement earthquake force (depending on the building loads on the half-basement) calculated when the analysis was performed with modal analysis and classical analysis options was calculated over the earthquake force found by the equivalent earthquake load method. It was calculated over the earthquake force found according to the modal analysis.
