pip install anystructure

After installing on PIP run ANYstructure (.exe) in the command line to execute the app.

Alternatively:

import ANYstructure.__main__ as run

run.main()

Windows installable EXE-link: https://sourceforge.net/projects/anystructure/

GUI based steel structure calculation tool.

The following is calculated:

• Minimum plate thickness (DNVGL-OS-C101)
• Minimum section modulus of stiffener/plate (DNVGL-OS-C101)
• Minimum shear area (DNVGL-OS-C101)
• Buckling (DNVGL-RP-C201)
• Fatigue for plate/stiffener connection (DNVGL-RP-C203)

Compartments (tank pressures) are created automatically.

Pressures on external hull (or any other generic location) is defined by specifying equations.

You can optimize single plate/stiffener field or multiple.

PLEASE CONTRIBUTE. For windows executable (.exe) version for non-coders, use the link below. Note that I am looking for contributions. Non-coders can verify, make documentation, suggest improvements etc. Point is: please do more than just use the tool and stay silent :)
