SPMTool: Stringer-Panel Modeling Tool

Analysis and design of reinforced concrete structures by the Stringer-Panel Method

SPMTool is a plugin for AutoCAD (2020 - 2022) for analysis and design of reinforced concrete structures by the Stringer-Panel Method.

Developed by Prof. André Felipe Ap. de Mello in his doctoral research oriented by Prof. Leandro Mouta Trautwein.

The following libraries are used in the development:

• MathNet.Numerics for Linear Algebra operations;

• Units.NET for simple unit conversions;

• Live Charts for load-displacement plotting;

• OnPlaneComponents for stress and strain transformations;

• Extensions for some numeric extensions;

• Material for concrete and reinforcement constitutive models;

• Reinforced Concrete Membrane for membrane calculations;

• FEM-Analysis for finite element calculations;

• SPMElements as the implementation of the finite elements;

• Feather icons for some icons and inspiration.

See the Wiki for installation and usage instructions.

Special Thanks

• Profs. Dr. Leandro Mouta Trautwein and Dr. Rafael Alves de Souza.
• Profs. Dr. Pierre Hoogenboom, Dr. Johan Blaauwendraad and the former SPanCAD's team.
