SE::MC

SE::MC is a computer program that allows you to perform moment curvature analysis on structural member sections. The structural member sections shall include but not limited to reinforced concrete column, prestressed concrete pile, bridge girder, reinforced concrete beam, and steel pipe sections. The analysis is based on strain compatibility approach. This program is a powerful tool for both structural design and research where moment curvature analysis is required.

Friendly User Interface: We dont just develop a program that can run. We develop our program with friendly user interface from all aspects. In this way, users can focus on the analysis instead of learning how to use the program.

Dynamic Unit System: The program supports eight sets of commonly used unit systems which cover both English and Metric units. You can easily switch to another unit system at any time.

Extensive Material Models: The program has built in stress strain models for unconfined concrete, confined concrete (Mander), mild steel, prestressing steel, bilinear steel, API pipe steel(Ramberg-Osgood). If the material model you want to use is not included in those built in models, you can use user defined material model to input you own stress strain data.

Random Section Geometry We have no limitation on the section geometry. As long as it is a real section, we will find the answer for you.

Multiple Number of Materials on A Single Section: The section can have as many different types of materials as you want. For example, a section could have unconfined concrete, confined concrete, mild steel and prestressing steel at the same time.

Capability to Handle Cross Section with Non-uniform Prestressing: When the section has non-uniform prestressing, the initial curvature on the section is not zero. Our strong algorithm can handle these cases while most other programs dont.

Idealized Moment Curvature Curve Generation: This program can generate the idealized curve based on design code requirements like AASHTO Guide Specifications for LRFD Seismic Bridge Design and Marine Oil Terminal Engineering and Maintenance Standards(MOTEMS).

It Is Not Just a Moment Curvature Analysis Program: This program can also be used to determine member section capacity and stiffness.

Whats new in this version:

This free version will allow you to analyze sections composed of rectangular and circular shapes.
