After starting the program, you will see two menus at the top of the window:

  • File

  • Info

After clicking on the "File" menu, a previously calculated system can be loaded by means of the "Load" menu item, or a new one created using "New".

The program allows simple system input by moving directly to the "Editor 1/Common systems" menu item after "New" is clicked. The dialog box in this case is expanded somewhat to allow you to select the applicable standard and the required analysis method ("Bishop", etc.).

If you do not want to work with the "Common systems" dialog box, click "No" in the query box or "Cancel" in the subsequent boxes. You will then return to the home screen. The program default standard is "EC 7" and the analysis method used employs circular slip surfaces after "Bishop". You then see ten menus in the menu bar:

  • File

  • Editor 1

  • Editor 2

  • Pwp mesh

  • Centre-points/Slip body

  • Safety factors/Utilisation factors

  • Graphics preferences

  • Page size + margins

  • Nail wall

  • Info
