FRAME3DD Alternatives

FRAME3DD is described as 'Free software for static and dynamic analysis of 3D moment-resisting elastic frames and trusses. Written in ANSI C. Source code includes: frame analysis with elastic and geometric stiffness, LDL' decomposition, LU decomposition, Newton-Raphson iteration, sub-space' and is an app in the office & productivity category. There are more than 10 alternatives to FRAME3DD for Windows, Linux and Mac. The best FRAME3DD alternative is Etabs. It's not free, so if you're looking for a free alternative, you could try FRAMEWORK 2D+3D or calc4fem. Other great apps like FRAME3DD are MASTAN2, Structurix, St and Analysis for Windows.
