SPAAD is a software developed by Z-Axis Engineering Solutions, that helps the Design Engineer to design Steel Platform members at an amazingly fast pace there by increasing the efficiency of the organization.
GEOMETRICAL INPUTS
- The input is given as Node input and Beam input.
- Node input - includes node Id, X and Y coordinates of the node, column section and column orientation.
- Beam input - includes Beam name, Left parent and Right parent and Beam section type.
LOADS INPUTS
- The loads input are given to the program as Platform loads and Equipment loads.
- Platform loads are the loads coming from the platform.
- The Reactions of Beams are automatically transferred as Point loads on the parent beams

Supports : Vertical, Horizontal & Axial Loading on the Beams |
ANALYSIS / DESIGN PROCESS
- The platform loads are calculated based on the platform width, D.L and L.L intensity given.
- The equipment loads are user given loads in terms of Point load / U.D.L.
- Secondary beam calculations are done for the platform loads and Equipment loads coming on to the beam.
- Main beam calculations are done for the platform loads and Equipment loads coming on to the beam and the secondary beam reactions
- As this program is specific to Design Steel Platform members, all the members are specifically analyzed as Simply supported members
- The user can be rest assured that the most optimum section will be selected automatically And in case of section failure for the maximum possible section, the user can opt for Compound section or Built up section
REPORTS AND ANALYSIS
- The report is highly condensed and gives exactly what the Design Engineer would want.
- Gives the BOQ of all the beams in platform
- Accuracy & Time – The accuracy matches to that of other popular Analysis software.
- Very Less time required to give input of platform data including the loading etc.
