LIRA SAPR

LIRA SAPR of 2011 Version of R6.2

The LIRA SAPR company released in the spring of 2012 update for the product "LIRA SAPR of 2011", the graphic platform for modeling of buildings of varying complexity.

The version of R6.2 contains the additions and improvements entered by developers from the moment of an exit of the 6th release including the corrections which entered a patch of 1/16/2012.

• The program error of protection which led, in some cases, to incorrect solving of tasks is corrected.
• The error of creation of text files on menu command "Is corrected create the Text file" and on the corresponding toolbar button.
• Start on calculation is improved: "Calculation of load of a fragment", Stability and other modules.
• When using a command of RSN automatic calculation of RSN from the counted loadings after execution of the command of a miscalculation of "Load of a fragment" is added.
• The logic and settings of a scale of results of reinforcing is upgraded.
• Display of units of measure in the majority of dialogs of info is recovered.
• The Combinations button for viewing RSU, RSN, efforts on which an armature is picked up is added to information on results of reinforcing.
• Selection of reinforcing when calculating RSU using "A variation of models" is modified.
• The feature for opening of local calculation of the 2nd and subsequent steel elements is added.
• The designing BEAM and COLUMN systems are connected.
• The error of calculation C1, C2 in the SOIL system is corrected.
• A help system is updated and expanded, some other amendments and improvements is entered to the program.
• Besides, new reinforcing rolling of the class A600C from brand 20G2SFBA steel is added.

Those at whom the previous releases of the LIRA SAPR PC were already set can download "A distribution kit (without system a component)" and to set release of R6.2 to that place where previous was set.

LIRA SAPR of 2012 Version R3

Preprocessor SAPPHIRE CONSTRUCTION

The new feature "Reference fixing" is entered. The user sets on analytical model a surface, the line or a separate node and also fixing type (numbers of degrees of freedom in which direction it is necessary to impose communications). All nodes after generation of a final and element grid will have fixing of the specified type.

Thus, now SAPPHIRE CONSTRUCTION has complete functionality to create the full settlement scheme in a technology chain an architectural model – analytical model – the settlement scheme.

VIZOR-SAPR is the mode of creation of the settlement scheme

The following improvements and innovations are entered to a unified graphical environment:

• The task of rods of the section variable longwise is added.
• The appearance of dialog boxes is updated, the design of the interface elements in dialogs and the toolbars is improved and unified.
• The configuration of the tape interface is expanded and added.

MKE Processor

New opportunities of the processor of LIRA SAPR 2012 R3:

• The new method of calculation of constructions taking into account physical nonlinearity is implemented.
• KE of a cover and plate are improved. Now they consider pliability to shift.
• The new element – a rod of variable section is implemented.
• Calculation is changed to seismic loading according to the accelerogram.
• The processor interface is improved.
• The processor leaves in two options: 32-bit and 64-bit. The option h64 allows to use all RAM of the computer (more than 2 GB).
• A number of alogisms and imperfections, insignificant errors is eliminated.

VIZOR-SAPR is the designing mode

• New calculation of a cross armature on breakdown in steel concrete plates is implemented. Results of calculation are exported to the SAPFIR-ZHBK system for further designing.
• The new alternative method of calculation of an armature for lamellar elements – Wood's method is implemented.
• New graphical representation of a scale is entered.
• The SAPFIR-ZHBK system is complemented with the new Breakdown mode.

2013: LIRA 10.2

On November 21, 2013 it became known of a release of the new version of the LIRA 10.2 PC.

Main changes

• modules SOIL and VARIATION of MODELS,
• work with architectural primitives (plate, line),
• compound sections of metalwork,
• calculation of plates on breakdown,
• communication with Autodesk Revit Structure 2014 and many other things.

The new version is focused on simplification of work and increase in efficiency of use of the LIRA PC.
