| Slab structures are planned nowadays
predominately on the basis of FEM calculations. The
Configuration level 2D of the InfoGraph program system
offers a mature solution for numerous tasks in structural
engineering. After the existing drawings are imported or
constructed in the system, meshes can be automatically generated
for complicated ground plans. This does not even require the
definition of surfaces or surface macros.
Also, special editing functions make it possible to manually
modify the FEM mesh at any time.
Loads can be freely distributed and moved within the system. |

Complete graphical
continuity is ensured, from system entry and preparation of the
results through to exporting the reinforcement to design
programs. This means that large foundation slabs, geometrically
complex floor slabs with downstand beams, widely varying plain
stress problems as well as girder grid and 2D frame systems can
be modeled safely and quickly. |
