In SAP2000 v. 11.0.4 when you try to show area loads by using the options “uniform load contours” you see only one color while you could get the right color distribution. This graphic bug may give some problems when you assign area loads in shell elements and when you have to check their location. Example: Start SAP2000 and choose “New model > Flat stab” and, assuming default values for “Slab”, click on “Ok” button. Choose “X-Y Plane” view; now select the middle area as shown below:
Now define a new load case in “Define > Load cases …” menu item. In “Define loads” window add a new case i.e. name “Loads”, type “Live”, self-weight multiplier “0” . Then assign an uniform load value to the selected area: go to “Assign > Area loads > Uniform (shell)” menu item, choose the load name previously defined (i.e. “Loads”), check the “Add to existing loads” radio item and type a value in direction gravity – global coordinates (i.e. 10 KN).
SAP2000 will show you by default area load values for each shell element: For a better understanting of load values you would use colors instead of single values. To do this go to “Display Show load assigns Area ” menu item. SAP2000 7.4 Student Version is an educational version of SAP, fully functional, but with a node limit. State-of-the-art 3D Finite Element Technology for Structural Engineers. SAP2000 represents the state-of-the-art in three dimensional finite element technology for structural engineering.

Oct 10, 2020 SAP2000 is an advanced civil engineering software ideal for designing and analyzing any type of structural system. SAP2000 v22.0.0 Crack can be used for designing any structural system and all users with any experience level as well as professionals. Like most common statistical software it seems to be Windows only. That doesn't preclude you from running it on your Mac though as any Mac made within the last 10 years is fully capable of running Windows (and arguably better than a majority of PC.
SAP2000 will show you by default area load values for each shell element:
For a better understanting of load values you would use colors instead of single values. To do this go to “Display > Show load assigns > Area …” menu item. Select the load case previosuly defined (i.e. “Loads”), check the “Uniform load contours” radio button, choose “GLOBAL” coordinate system, direction “gravity” and click “Ok”. You will expect that the selected area is painted with the default color for the maximum value (i.e. blue for 10 KN) and the remaining part of the flat stab painted with the default color for the minimum value (i.e. purple for 0 KN). Instead SAP2000 v.11.0.4 will show you something like this:
As you can see is impossible to recognize shell elements with 10 KN applied before because you can see only one color. It is curious to note that this graphic bug is not present in SAP2000 v. 11.0.0 version; if you repeat steps before by using this version of the software you will have this result:
that is the right area load graphic rendering. This bug issue was tested on a MacBook 2.16 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo with Windows XP SP3® installed (and run by using Bootcamp®; and VMWare Fusion® ) and on a HP Compaq notebook with Windows XP SP2® installed. In conclusion, if you want to avoid this annoying problem, you have to downgrade to 11.0.0 (or use it only for this function).
The SAP name has been synonymous with state-of-the-art analytical methods since its introduction over 30 years ago. SAP2000 follows in the same tradition featuring a very sophisticated, intuitive and versatile user interface powered by an unmatched analysis engine and design tools for engineers working on transportation, industrial, public works, sports, and other facilities.
From its 3D object based graphical modeling environment to the wide variety of analysis and design options completely integrated across one powerful user interface, SAP2000 has proven to be the most integrated, productive and practical general purpose structural program on the market today. This intuitive interface allows you to create structural models rapidly and intuitively without long learning curve delays. Now you can harness the power of SAP2000 for all of your analysis and design tasks, including small day-to-day problems. Complex Models can be generated and meshed with powerful built in templates. Integrated design code features can automatically generate wind, wave, bridge, and seismic loads with comprehensive automatic steel and concrete design code checks per US, Canadian and international design standards.
Advanced analytical techniques allow for step-by-step large deformation analysis, Eigen and Ritz analyses based on stiffness of nonlinear cases, catenary cable analysis, material nonlinear analysis with fiber hinges, multi-layered nonlinear shell element, buckling analysis, progressive collapse analysis, energy methods for drift control, velocity-dependent dampers, base isolators, support plasticity and nonlinear segmental construction analysis. Nonlinear analyses can be static and/or time history, with options for FNA nonlinear time history dynamic analysis and direct integration.
From a simple small 2D static frame analysis to a large complex 3D nonlinear dynamic analysis, SAP2000 is the easiest, most productive solution for your structural analysis and design needs.
