Upd — Midas Gen 2022

In 2022, they finally calibrated the shrinkage and creep models to match ACI 209 and CEB-FIP 2010 accurately. For a concrete core wall building rising 3 floors per week, the 2022 solver correctly predicts the differential shortening between the core and perimeter columns.

The module in 2022 is arguably the best in the mid-range software market. Why? Time-dependent material properties. midas gen 2022

MIDAS Gen 2022 supports IFC 2x3 and IFC 4. But "support" means geometry comes in. Sections? No. Loads? No. Material nonlinearity mapping? Absolutely not. In 2022, they finally calibrated the shrinkage and

While Western markets favored CSI products, MIDAS Gen carved out an empire based on one ruthless principle: If you can draw it in AutoCAD, Gen can analyze it without crashing. But "support" means geometry comes in

MIDAS Gen 2022 is not sexy. It is not cloud-native. It doesn't have AI generative design. But if you need to know the exact moment a 10,000-ton building twists during a 2,500-year earthquake, this software will tell you the truth. And in structural engineering, truth is more valuable than beauty. Have you hit a bug in Gen 2022’s nonlinear time history analysis? Or did you figure out how to map wind loads from CFD efficiently?
