Civil

Roads, buildings, airports, tunnels, dams, bridges, water supply and sewage systems are the life-lines of our urban existence. Structural engineers need to design these structures so that while serving their useful function, they do not collapse, bend, twist, or vibrate in undesirable ways. In addition they are responsible for making efficient use of funds and materials to achieve these structural goals. FEM analyzes the effects of live loads such as the weight of occupants and furniture in a building, the forces of wind or weights of water, and the forces due to an earthquake; or dead loads such as the weight of the building itself. The NISA product line has been helping the civil industry for the last two decades in analyzing and designing many durable structures.
