Frame Design Alternatives

Frame Design is described as 'This intuitive and feature rich finite element app is especially useful for civil engineers, mechanical engineers, architects and students who wish to design 2D frames' and is an app. There are nine alternatives to Frame Design for Windows, Linux, Windows Mobile and Mac. The best Frame Design alternative is FTOOL, which is free. Other great apps like Frame Design are LinPro, Telaio2D, JBeam and 2D Frame Analysis.
