About CASA Space Truss 3D
Structural / Civil Engineering App for static elastic analysis of general 3D space-trusses.
With CASA ST-3D an engineer can create 3D structural models of space-trusses and obtain both the numerical results and graphical representation of the deflections and forces. There is an emphasis on quick and precise modelling with graphical interaction. Results are graphically interactive with a sliding readout of numerical results at any point along a member.
Trusses have all member ends pinned to the nodes, preventing transfer of bending moments & torsions and requiring the structure to be suitably braced against collapse.
More information about this App can be found in its integrated help and on our website. The App also contains "Replay Demonstrations" which describe and enact its use.
=== This App includes the following features:
* Sway-cases.
* Geometry groups:
- Include or exclude geometry from the analysis.
* Multi-copying for rapid generation of regular geometry.
* Reflection of geometry.
* Solid rendering of geometry:
- Member cross-sections drawn to scale.
- Colour-coded by groups.
* Viewpoint memories:
- Store and recall for quick navigation.
* Members can be oriented to a third node.
* Rotation of geometry.
* Gravity loading.
* Factored load-case combinations.
* Rubber-band box for large-area selection.
=== General Technical Features ===
* Automatic analysis.
* Integrated extensive section library:

What's New in the Latest Version 21.05
Last updated on Jun 1, 2021
Old Versions
Maintenance update.
The app now uses the standard iOS file browser, and we recommend saving any current documents and closing the app prior to updating. On first launch, if it opens in the "Recents" files tab, then browse to "On my iPad" and then to this app's documents. If the app were not fully closed prior to updating then the documents folder may appear empty when first opened, in which case close the app in the iOS home page and relaunch it.
