Design — Prokon Steel

Apply dead loads (self-weight + cladding), live loads (maintenance), and wind loads. For wind, use Prokon’s automatic wind generator based on terrain category and basic wind velocity.

Complex joints where rotation must be resisted, typically found in rigid frame structures. Prokon Steel Design

This is the workhorse for secondary beams and rafters. You input the span, restraints (lateral torsional buckling restraints), and loads. The module instantly returns the lightest section (UB, UC, PFC, or CHS) that passes ULS (Ultimate Limit State) and SLS (Serviceability Limit State) checks. It automatically calculates shear buckling, web bearing, and deflection limits. Apply dead loads (self-weight + cladding), live loads

PROKON integrates these design modules into a standard engineering workflow: Apply dead loads (self-weight + cladding)
