## What is CASA Space Frame L?

Structural / Civil Engineering App for static elastic analysis of general 3D space-frames.

With CASA SF-L an engineer can create 3D structural models of space-frames and obtain both the numerical results and graphical representation of the deflections and forces. There is an emphasis on quick and precise modelling with graphical interaction. Results are graphically interactive with a sliding readout of numerical results at any point along a member.

More information about this App can be found in its integrated help and on our website. The App also contains "Replay Demonstrations" which describe and enact its use.

### 1/5 — Mr Nick Grigore

*2011-10-17*

The "Geometry" section works fine but no loads can be input. I paid some $85.00 and can not use.  I expect the seller to solve it soon or better to upgrade it for frww to CASA SPACE FRAME3 D. If not, I expect a refund for this useless app.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 21.05 — 2021-06-01

Maintenance update.
The app now uses the standard iOS file browser, and we recommend saving any current documents and closing the app prior to updating. On first launch, if it opens in the "Recents" files tab, then browse to "On my iPad" and then to this app's documents. If the app were not fully closed prior to updating then the documents folder may appear empty when first opened, in which case close the app in the iOS home page and relaunch it.

### 18.03 — 2018-04-09

This app has been updated by Apple to display the Apple Watch app icon.

Improved compatibility with iOS 11 and iPhone X.

### 2.17 — 2017-03-06

Fixed indication of ambiguous major axis alignment.

### 2.16 — 2017-01-04

Updates for iOS 10.
Miscellaneous improvements.

### 2.14 — 2016-06-07

Miscellaneous improvements.
