sap 2000 vs sframe
hi,our company ;specialized in curtain wall and we are using nonlinear analysis larg displacement on regular basis; tend to update their structural software analysis.majority of engineers would like to go for sap2000 ver 11 vs. one engineer support sframe.my boss asked for my opinion and i need other engineers opinion.
thank you
sap2000 has lot more capabilities than sframe.
as far as ease of use, sframe beats sap2000 by miles.
if you're in a line of work where the structural analysis is very limited, then a smaller program may be your best bet.  
if your work requires much general structural analysis and more sophisticated analysis then sap is the best choice.
