RC-PADD stands for ‘Reinforced Concrete – Post-Analysis Designer and Detailer’. It is a special-purpose program for the structural design of reinforced concrete building structures and the subsequent detailing. The post-analysis nature of the program gives it more power over conventional ‘integrated’ programs that carry out altogether the structural analysis and the structural design. Once the structure is analyzed using a reliable structural analysis program,the model and the results are imported to RC-PADD, where the structural design and detailing are carried out.
