Working closely with consulting engineers, Cintec utilises an advanced dynamic version of the ELFEN software programme. This has been adapted to represent differing masonry properties. These range from Macro blocks with essentially no strength within to the joints - (commonly found in historical structures), Brittle Material; (where blocks and joints have predominantly similar strengths as is often the case for modern forms construction) and Brittle Macro Blocks which uses the macro block approach but with brittle materials to permit block representation to fracture into further parts. |
