TECSI’s ASCE 7-16 API For Online Design Tools
ASCE 7-16 is significantly more complicated than previous versions of the code and in many cases the new changes dramatically increase the forces to which one must design their system. Fortunately, TECSI’s API incorporates advanced optimizations which decrease the required loads while still maintaining adherence to the code.
Jurisdictions have already begun switching over to ASCE 7-16. Get ahead of the curve, adopt TECSI’s API today.
