CSI Bridge 26.2.0 (3099)

Computers and Structures, Inc. (CSI) is pleased to announce the availability of CSiBridge 26.2.0 (3099) is specialized analysis and design software tailored for the engineering of bridge systems.

CSiBridge v26.2.0 includes superstructure design of T-beam bridges according to Eurocode. IRC 112-2020 superstructure design has also been added, along with the 2024 Caltrans amendments to AASHTO LRFD design. Improvements for large displacement analysis (for link elements) have been made in the analysis engine.

CSiBridge v26.2.0 Enhancements - Date: 3-Feb-2025

Analysis
Greater control over link-elements in models with large displacements has been added. This new behavior applies to nonlinear static, direct-integration, and staged-construction load cases where the geometric nonlinearity parameter has been set to P-Delta plus Large Displacements.


Bridge Design and Rating
2024 Caltrans amendments to AASHTO LRFD bridge design have been added.


IRC 112-2020 superstructure design of concrete bridges has been added, along with load combinations according to IRC 6-2017.


Eurocode superstructure design of concrete T-beam bridges has been added.


Documentation
The CSI Analysis Reference Manual has been updated to include content for minor existing features that were previously only described in the Help, as well as for style and improved ability to search within the PDF file.



CSiBridge is specialized analysis and design software tailored for the engineering of bridge systems. Suspension, cable-stay, elevated-roadway, and other types of bridge systems may be modeled and designed to suit any one of a variety of purposes, including means for crossing water, linking points between shear terrain, or extending over highway infrastructure. Customized controls and features integrate across a powerful object-based modeling environment to offer an intuitive, practical, and productive computational tool for bridge engineering. Advanced modeling features and sophisticated analysis techniques account for dynamic effects, inelastic behavior, and geometric nonlinearity. Code-based templates streamline the engineering process from model definition through analysis, design optimization, and the generation of comprehensive output reports. CSiBridge is the premier software for bridge engineering.
Completely integrated within the CSiBridge design package is the power of the SAPFire analysis engine, including staged construction, creep and shrinkage analysis, cable tensioning to target forces, camber and shape finding, geometric nonlinearity (P-delta and large displacements), material nonlinearity (superstructure, bearings, substructure and soil supports), buckling and static and dynamic analysis. All of these apply to a single comprehensive model. In addition, AASHTO LRFD design is included with automated load combinations, superstructure design and the latest seismic design.
