Analysis and design of reinforced concrete continuous beams and slabs
Analysis | Design | Detailing
Design single and multi-span reinforced concrete beams and slabs, with rectangular, T, L or I shaped, and inverted T and L-sections, as well as tapered sections.
Analyse sub-frames with automated pattern loading of dead and live loads at ultimate limit state. Redistribution of moments and shears are done to a user-specified percentage.
This module can be used on its own or as a post-processor for frame analyses in PROKON’s Sumo and Frame Generate complete bending schedules for beams and slabs.

Analysis and design of pre-stressed reinforced concrete continuous beams and slabs
Analysis | Design | Detailing
Design most types of continuous pre-stressed beam and slab systems from single span to twenty-spans, encountered in typical building projects.
Cross-sections can include a mixture rectangular, I, T and L-sections as well as user defined sections and tapered sections. The module automatically applies pattern loading to entered dead and live loads. At ultimate limit state, moments and shears are redistributed to a specified percentage. Different to Continuous Beam, Captain can calculate estimates for quantities tendon profile schedules can be generated for use with Padds. Schedules can be edited and printed using Padds.

Finite element analysis and design of rectangular slab panel
Design | Detailing
Design rectangular reinforced concrete flat slab panels with a variety of edge supports, e.g., free, simply supported, or continuous.
Enter multiple load cases comprising point loads, line loads and UDLs, and combine these with ULS load factors.
The program calculates steel reinforcement using normal code formulae. The automated reinforcement detailing allows you to edit the reinforcement and generate a bending schedule that can be edited and printed using PROKON’s Padds or Probar 2D modules.

Design of rectangular reinforced concrete columns
Design | Detailing
The PROKON suite includes three concrete column design modules: one for rectangular columns, another for circular columns, and a third for designing columns with any general shape.
Design rectangular reinforced concrete columns typically used in buildings. Design charts can be printed for easy audit of results. A bending schedule is generated based on the appropriate detailing standard.

Design of circular reinforced concrete columns
Design | Detailing
The PROKON suite includes three concrete column design modules: one for rectangular columns, another for circular columns, and a third for designing columns with any general shape.
Design circular reinforced concrete columns typically used in buildings. Design charts can be printed for easy auditing of results. A bending schedule is generated based on the appropriate detailing standard.

Design any shape of reinforced concrete column
Design | Detailing
The PROKON suite includes three concrete column design modules: one for rectangular columns, another for circular columns, and a third for designing columns with any general shape.
This module designs columns that do not necessarily fall inside the scope of the code requirements for the simplified method approach. The program, therefore, reverts to first principles, strain compatibility and equilibrium of forces.

Design various configurations of reinforced concrete retaining walls
Design | Detailing
Analyse concrete retaining walls for normal soil and surcharge loads or seismic load conditions.
The program can design most conventional retaining walls, including cantilever, simply supported and propped cantilever walls.
Analyse walls with complex geometries like backward or forward sloping walls and toes, as well as walls that have a varying thickness with their height.
Choose between the Rankine and Coulomb theories and incorporate seepage in the analysis. A water table can also be specified.

Design isolated reinforced concrete pad footings
Design
Design rectangular concrete column bases for stability and strength.
The module allows you to design bases with up to two columns (or points of load application), stub columns, or no columns; each with multiple load cases. Link analysis results from PROKON’s Frame and Sumo with the program. The output diagrams include that of the bearing stress distribution, safety factors for slip and overturning, linear shear and punching shear checks, as well as required reinforcement for flexure. A reinforcement bending schedule generator creates drawings that can be edited and printed with Padds or Probar 2D.

Beam and slab crack width design
Design
Design reinforced concrete sections to meet specific crack requirements.
Both rectangular beam and slab sections can be designed to resist the effects of axial tension, bending moment and temperature and the combination thereof. Temperature effects are also included to evaluate early cracking and long-term thermal cracking.
The program accounts for concrete shrinkage due to hydration by a combination of the thermal expansion coefficient and the restraint factor. The design method employed by the codes is ideally suited for non-temperate regions like Europe.

Design of concrete beam sections
Design
This program can design rectangular and T-sections subject to shear, bending and torsion. The user can decide whether the flange participates in the torsional resistance. The single input table makes it quick and easy to enter the section geometry and ultimate loading. Moment redistribution is allowed.

Design for flat slab punching shear
Design
Design reinforced concrete flat slabs for punching shear at internal, edge and corner columns by specifying the distance from the support to the slab edge; the program automatically determines the shear perimeters.
You can also enter the amount of longitudinal reinforcement (that affects the shear capacity) in the two main directions.
The design output gives the critical load case with corresponding amounts of punching shear reinforcement needed for each perimeter, as well as suggested reinforcement configurations and detailed calculations.
