Software

For its range of steel products and solutions, ArcelorMittal has developed numerous free pre-design tools in order to support engineers and architects in the blueprint and calculation of their projects. These programmes cover various steel design aspects and composite structures with different standards, as well as special solutions in accordance with the European Design codes - the Eurocodes.

Available for download

The whole range of ArcelorMittal pre-design and calculation software is available free of charge to registered Constructalia users. Sign up here to download the tools - registration is free.

 

TTV - Thickness Toughness Validator

TTV (Thickness Toughness Validator) is a software tool developed and maintained by ArcelorMittal Steligence® Engineering. The first version was released in July 2023 and is free to download. It is a simple, intuitive, and quick tool for validating steel construction details according to the recommendations and requirements contained in the EN 1993-1-10 standard. The simplified method (EN 1993-1-10, Clause 2.3) has been implemented in the program. The advanced method (EN 1993-1-10, Clause 2.4) based on more advanced fracture mechanics methods has also been implemented for specific details. Both the software and the user guide are provided in the downloadable folder.
