MasterFrame Analysis

Both MasterFrame and MasterFrame Pro allow the engineer to analyse a structural model using static or P-delta second order analysis on any models. Masterframe also allows the analysis to use non-linear elements such as spring supports and tension/compression only members. Because the software allows the engineer to use second order analysis, each load case is treated as a separate analysis case by the software. This means the analysis is carried out for each individual load case and superposition of load cases is not used in the software, except where specified by the user by the use of the "Combine Active Load cases" option.
