Compression member

A Design module in Osdag software application for Steel Design

The FOSSEE project is part of the National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (ICT), Ministry of Education (MoE), Government of India.
Osdag is a cross-platform free/libre and open-source software for the design (and detailing) of steel structures, following the Indian Standard IS 800:2007.

Below I have added the images of the module - Compression member and it’s sub-modules: Columns in Frames and Struts in Trusses

Images for the Columns in Frames sub-module. On the left, you can see the main page. Middle, is the Design Preference pop-up with the description of Column Section. Right, is another pop-up for the Design Preference with the description of Optimization tab. This is done so that user gets better control over the design based on their input from the input dock.

Images for the Struts in Trusses sub-module. On the left, you can see the main page. Middle, is the Design Preference pop-up with the description of Angle Section. Right, is another pop-up for the Design Preference with the description of Optimization tab. This is done so that user gets better control over the design based on their input from the input dock.

The code is simple. Checkout Osdag and dowload it, don’t worry it’s free and open-source, checkout the Github pages(read more about the Osdag - Github system). The code for the above images is available at my Github page
