MIDAS/Civil is a Total Integrated Solution System for Civil Structural Engineering. The System combines General Purpose Structural Analysis Features and Civil Engineering-specific Structural Analysis Capabilities. It includes Pre-stressed Concrete Box, Suspension and Cable-Stayed Bridge Analysis features and other useful Civil Structure Analysis features such as Heat of Hydration analysis, which reflect Construction Sequence.
