Pangolin - Create complex steel structural model definitions

With Pangolin you can create complex steel structural model definitions that include details such as: 

• Beam haunches
• Highly configurable cold-formed sections with stiffeners
• Surface loads with load transfer surfaces distributing them onto beams
• Load combinations made up of loads in load cases

The created model then can be saved out as a file for later use or sent directly over to Consteel by the connection component for analysis with Consteel’s unique calculations.

Currently supported objects:

• Geometry: Lines, arcs, polygons
• Structural members: Beams, plates, supports, rigid bodies, diaphragms, link elements, haunches
• Sections: More than 7000 predefined from Consteel section bank, or custom defined by section macros, including cold-formed sections with stiffener definition support
• Custom structural attributes: Release stiffness model, support model, material properties
• Loads: Nodal, line, uniform and linearly changing surface loads
• Load configuration: Load combinations, load groups, load cases, load transfer surfaces
• Organization: Layers and structural groups
• I.O. : Load from file, load from Consteel, save to file or Consteel
• Integrated parameters: For unambiguous definitions, avoiding the use of nebulous generic parameters
