Bentley Multiframe 2024

Bentley’s Multiframe helps builders review their tank structure against class requirements and optimize it for strength and weight. It can be used for furnace, deck, superstructure and drive power calculations. When designing a steel and aluminum tank, there is a wide range of structural analysis methods that can be used to evaluate the tank’s structural capacity and conformance to class requirements.

This software is a beam element based system that allows you to quickly model and analyze the tank structure and perform static and dynamic analyzes of your structural behavior. It is an ideal complement to full finite element analysis and less detailed plate calculations.

Multiframe can be loaded into a geometry file from a structure or any other structural modeling system and then provides a wide range of tools to apply structural properties such as constraints, materials and section shapes. The facility consists of creating a load family and then performing a static or dynamic analysis. Static results can be checked in terms of display of actions, stress and deflection. Dynamic results include natural frequencies and mode shapes or more accurate history results for different load times.

Features and features of Multiframe software:

• Graphical creation of limits, loads and geometric shapes
• Ability to zoom
• Tool Tip feature to display help in joints and members
• OpenGL rendering
• Selection based on box, line, member type, section type, etc
• Automatic generation of page elements
• Shape editor to calculate properties of non-standard shape sections
