K2Engineering Tools

Hi,

I recently downloaded K2Engineering  components. I am just wondering if these components can do elastic linear analysis of a frame or not? Would it be possible that someone point me to the right direction about these components. I am a structural engineer and I like to hear more about free structural analysis tools in Grasshopper. I have previously used Millipede and as it is not updated anymore, I have stopped to use it. Thanks.

Yes, it can. You can find some example files here:

If you want to read a bit more about how it works and the current limitations, look here:

Hope that can get you started.

I tried your samples but get the message that Object "Materials" is missing. Where do I find it?

Try to download the latest release on Github, I think that will solve it. Otherwise let me know and I'll look further into it.
