It is advisable to toggle on the icons suggested in this tutorial to avoid any error. The Toggle on/off status of the icon depends on the initial setting of Civil. The data input window and the unit display at the bottom (Status Bar – Fig.1.2–) indicate the unit system in use reduces the possibility of errors.
User to modify the data entries by the Drag & Drop Main Menu Icon Menu Toolbar Works Tree allows the Even if the analysis has been performed in “kip” and “ft”, the units adopted for the stress results from the analysis can be converted to “ksi”. The user can change the unit system by selecting the unit system change menu at the bottom of the screen (or Tools>Unit System from the Main Menu). In addition, since the unit system can be optionally changed to suit the data type, the user may use “ft” for the geometry modeling and “in” for the section data. A single unit system may be used (example: SI unit system, i.e., m, N, kg, Pa) or a combined unit system may also be used (example: m, kN, lb, kgf/mm2). Unit System Midas Civil allows a mixed use of different types of units. Select File>Save (or ) to assign a file name and save the work.

The step-by-step analysis process presented in this example is generally applicable in practice. The user will be introduced easily to Midas Civil after practicing the program by following the tutorial. This chapter is designed to familiarize the new user with the Midas Civil environment and to become acquainted with the procedure for using Midas Civil within a very short time frame. Follow all of the steps from the modeling to the interpretation of analysis results for a 3–D simple 2–bay frame to get acquainted with the process.
