Steelwork Member Designer V3.53 (SEE NOTE BELOW)

This update must only be installed if the application has previously been installed from the 2008-1 CD

Version 3.53

Enhancements:

1. The following changes are incorporated in accordance with BS 5950-1:2000 Amendment 1 (2007) and Corrigendum 2 (2008)
   1. The slenderness correction factor (nt) formula in Annex G.4.3 is modified in accordance with Corrigendum 2 (2008)
   2. The condition `Syeff <= Sy' has been added to the expression for Syeff in clause 3.5.6.2 for I or H sections with equal flanges
2. For any two adjacent members to form a single design object (joined member), the end of the first member and the start of the second member should be fixed. A check has now been introduced to this effect and the following warning message will be displayed when the condition is not satisfied when trying to export joined members to SWMD from frame analysis software.

"Consecutive members which are discontinuous because of pin, ball or partially fixed end conditions cannot be joined as single design objects"

Corrections made:

1. The `rotate' icon in the 'Member Properties' dialog was not visible in the previous version. It has now been reinstated
2. When negative moment was applied along with any other load type in either Imposed or Wind load category the loading view was corrupted. Also when the job was saved and reopened the main view disappeared. This problem has been fixed.
