12-Build is a quick and simple tool to size beams and columns safely and accurately already in the early design phase.
✓ Minimum of Data Required
In 12-Buildd you only need to enter the beam’s length or frame’s dimensions, its supports and the loads. 12-Build will automatically create the load combinations and determine the self-weight.
✓ Always Optimal Cross-Section
Simply choose the material (steel/concrete/timber) and in the 12-Build will present the best fitted section for your beam or frame. 12-Build does all the work for you and always delivers an optimal result: the beam with the smallest height, the steel profile having the lesser weight or the girder with the maximum deflection limits.
At any time, 12-Build will propose you the most optimal solution for your design projects.
✓ Complete Result
Next to a creation of a concise and highly readable analysis report, 12-Build delivers a reinforcement sketch and list of material quantities: total volume timber and concrete, total weight and volume of reinforcement, painting surface and weight of steel.
