Introduction Gen Verification Examples contain the verified results of various program functions. Each example entails a general verification process witch confirms the validity of the structural analysis results. These results are compared with theoretical results and the results based on recognized technical reports. Each example is also compared with other similar programs results in this manual. This manual consists of Title, Description, Model, Results and Comparison of Results of each example with brief explanations. The references list publications at the end of each example and include lists of other analysis programs used to verify the examples. Other programs used are as follows: ADINA ADINA R&D Inc. ANSYS ANSYS Inc. ETABS Computers and Structures, Inc. MSC/NASTRAN MSC. Software Co. Ltd. NISA Engineering Mechanics Research Corporation SAP2000 Computers and Structures, Inc. STAAD/PRO Research Engineers, Inc.
Relatively small magnitude of structural programs are illustrated in this manual in order to example specific capabilities of the program.
