The Simpson Strong-Tie® Strong Frame™ moment frame selector software is designed to help Designers select an appropriate frame for your project's given geometry and loading. Only minimum input geometries are required for the software to select an appropriate frame for the available space. Based on input geometry, the Strong Frame selector software will narrow down the 368 available stock frames to a handful of possible solutions. If opening dimensions are outside stock frame sizes, Designers can enter the specific opening dimensions, and the Strong Frame selector will provide possible customized solutions.
