One of the standout features of the 2022 v1.2 update is its enhanced capabilities. The software excels at handling diverse bridge types—from simple spans to complex cable-stayed and suspension structures. It utilizes a powerful Finite Element Analysis (FEA) engine that allows engineers to perform linear and nonlinear analyses, including time-dependent material properties like creep and shrinkage . This version specifically refined the moving load analysis engine, enabling more accurate simulations of vehicle interactions on curved or skewed bridges. Design Code Integration and Automation
