GSA Bridge has proved its worth as a key piece of bridge engineering software on award-winning projects such as the Infinity Footbridge, the Falkirk Wheel, and the Gatwick Air Bridge.
Part of the GSA suite of programs, GSA Bridge is the perfect bridge design software for busy bridge designers. This easy-to-use bridge analysis software automatically sifts through the multiplicity of possible moving loads to find the crucial loads for your structure.
GSA Bridge will also design the steel beams and slab rebar for you to a variety of national and international codes, determining what is needed to carry the load.
As designs become more efficient, the resulting structures get lighter and more responsive to human induced vibrations. GSA Bridge thus includes the advanced footfall module and is the leading program available for vertical footfall analysis on any structure.
Input: Create structural finite element analysis models using CAD and BIM links, directly in the table or graphical views, or using your own scripts via the Application Programming Interface. Assign linear and nonlinear materials to a variety of element types, whether beams from catalogues, standard shapes, profiled slabs, or your own special requirements. Add static, dynamic, prestress, or thermal loads and analyse the effect.
Analysis and Design: GSA includes several solvers, including:
GSA will find the lightest, shallowest, cheapest, or most environmentally friendly steel beam section to carry the load, and work out the ideal quantity of reinforcement in your concrete slabs and walls.
Output: Output forces, moments, deformed geometry, and other results in graphical views, tables, and graphs. Export analysis models to LS DYNA, model changes to Revit, or text and numbers to Office documents.

|||||
Footfall Vibration Analysis | |||||
Using modal superposition, a rigorous and accurate finite element method, GSA is able to evaluate a structure's sensitivity and response to accelerations caused by pedestrian loading.

Maintenance is only available to existing licences and lasts 12 months. It is highly recommended that you keep your software licences maintained. Maintenance duration will be calculated from the date of expiry of the previous maintenance/initial warranty. If you are purchasing maintenance for licences that have been unmaintained for longer than 12 months please contact us in order to renew.
"GSA has a highly responsive interface which facilitates an intuitive understanding of model behavior. For example, it allows for smooth rotation and magnification of the model while viewing enveloped results, allowing for effective post processing within the program itself. Many other structural analysis programs move sluggishly or not at all when results are displayed, and full post-processing of results must be done in other programs to be effective"
