"A Total One Step Solution for the Structural Engineer, seamlessly integrating both simple and advanced analysis with design for all common materials into an intuitive full Native Windows 95/98/2000/Me/NT/XP Interface"

ROBOT Millennium evolved over 20 years of innovative and extensive developments and improvements, as well as a precise study of users' needs and experience of ROBOT V6 and ROBOT 97.
It is the achievement of two generations of extremely powerful programs dedicated to Steel, Concrete and Civil Engineering design offices.

Frame Analysis
ROBOT Millennium provides easy to use facilities for the fast and efficient generation and analysis of 2D and 3D frame structures. It is possible to input sections from steel databases from around the world or by input of user defined sections. In addition, the software has libraries of standard structures, such as portal frames and trusses.


Section Property Calculator
ROBOT Millennium section calculator allows the user to input (either via CAD or through the ROBOT GUI) any arbitrary cross sectional shape. Full section properties are then calculated by ROBOT (bending and torsion inertias, warping, shear centres etc). The section may then be saved to a user defined section database for subsequent use as a section in a frame structure


Preferences and Job Preferences
In common with many other "native" Windows programs, ROBOT allows the user to define the screen layout and structural parameters using Preferences. Here, the user may choose the units desired, set the particular Code of Practice for design, set FE meshing values or input any user defined material
ROBOT Millennium is also a true multinational product, allowing the user to set a different output language to the input language or to change units between the input and output stages of a project.


Links with Other Software
ROBOT Millennium has links to many other software packages. It is possible to import and export to various CAD packages (via dwg, dxf, StruCAD, ACIS, SSDNF file). It is also possible to input files generated by other structural analysis programs
We now also start to support true access between popular sofware using IFC's (industry Foundation Classes).
Since ROBOT Millennium is a true "native" Windows application, it is also possible to link to popular general applications, such as Word, Excel, Access..........
