As Far As We Know, CSE Is The Only Program Available Which Is Able To Check Connections Built Up Freely Placing Components, That Is Allowing A True Freedom Of Component Positioning. CSE Does Not Work With Pre-Defined Joint Kinds (Rigid Cooking Recipes) But It Allows The Checking Of The Connections Freely Created By The User, Thanks To An Interactive Graphic User Interface Which Lets The User Place Components Where He/She Wants, Rotating Them, Shifting Them, Cutting Them, Or Modifying Them At His/Her Needs, And Thanks To A Very General And Flexible Structural Model It Manages In The Background.

Using CSE You Can Check Complex Structures In Hundreds Or Thousands Of Load Combinations. CSE Checks By Itself Overlapping, Recognizes Connections, Joint Topology And Proper Layouts, And Is Able To Automatically Perform All The Computations Needed To Transfer Internal Forces At The Theoretical Extremes Of The Members To Their True, Distributed Joiner Points. The Program Has A Very Wide Set Of Checking Tools, From Automatic Fem Modelling Of Components (Including The Single Forces Transferred By Joiners Sub-Components) To Addition Of User Defined Simplified Checks (Via Pre-Defined Variables And User Variables), Not Forgetting The Standard Automatic Checking Tools Of Joiners, Throughs And Members (Net Sections, Anchors, Bearing Pressures, Pull Out, Shear, No Tension One Side Contacts, And Much More).

Using CSE You Can Fastly Design Connections (Using Fillet Welds Or Bolts) Of 2D And 3D Structures And Check Them By Eurocode 3 (EN 1993-1-8), IS 800:2007 (Indian Standard – Working Stress & Limit State), USA AISC-ASD, AISC-LRFD, And Italian CNR 10011.
