midas Civil is one of the top 5 Bridge Design & Analysis Software that combines the ease of modeling with exclusive analysis features, making modeling and designing efficient for engineers. The engineering software provides handy features for simpler bridges and flexibility to deal with complex geometry - combining all important features of bridge analysis software and bridge design software.

It includes various design codes that become very useful for engineers looking for optimized designs. midas Civil will lighten your work and make bridge design more accessible through our bridge design software. So, let's explore what your best partner can do for you.

Minimized Workloads

Intuitive Modeling

midas Civil provides the user with unlimited and efficient modeling methods for any project. manual modeling? Wizard? Data exchange? Everything can be found in midas Civil. They create nodes and elements, like CAD programs, as a conventional modeling approach. Bridge-oriented features like Bridge Wizards are favorites of bridge engineers. The Bridge Wizards can create a complete bridge model for you in a blink of an eye, and one can make any modification to the model, hence providing full liberty to the engineer. Other efficient approaches are also available, such as CAD import, table format modeling, and code format modeling.

Easy Analysis

Complete Analysis Options

No additional programs are needed. As one of the best structural analysis and design software, midas Civil performs all the essential analyses required for primary bridges, like moving Load Analysis, Construction Stage Analysis, Eigen Value analysis, and Linear and Non-Linear Analysis. But when the need arises for high-end analysis for complex bridges like Buckling Analysis, Cable Force Tuning, Rail Structure Interaction, and Settlement Analysis, that can also be easily performed in the software. Therefore, providing a stable platform to bridge engineers for their daily use to their high-end use.

Result Interpretation Done Right

Powerful Post Processor

The post-processor can automatically create load combinations by specified design standards. Changing the type of display can produce various forms of graphic output. The results can be practically animated, like node shapes, time history, and static analysis results. midas Civil also provides results that are compatible with MS Excel, which enables result extraction easily, and the user can review all analysis and design results systematically.

Optimized Designs

Auto Design and Load Rating

As a top structural engineering software, midas Civil has inbuilt design code checking and load rating features. AASHTO LRFD & LRFR, CHBDC CSA, EUROCODE, and other codes are available. The codes are constantly updated to ensure the users can best take advantage of the code-checking and rating features in the program. The automatic report generation features give the users an organized and detailed report that includes formulas and code references, which gives users confidence in their results and becomes their best partner in bridge design.

How to Perform Time-Dependent Analysis

How to Perform Time-dependent Analysis?

Mainly there are two ways to perform the time-dependent analysis. One is the time-step analysis and the other is the age-adjusted method. The age-adjusted method is a simplified one and can consider the long-term effects with only a one-step analysis. Of course, this is an approximate way to consider

Influence Line Analysis for Continuous Girders

Influence line analysis is essential for bridge design. Classical influence line theory for continuous girders goes back to Müller-Breslau in the late 18th century. Currently, iterative analysis is commonly used since this method is rather simple to implement with the displacement methods. Both methods give the same results and we can use either of these methods.
