Click the "Post-Tension" tab in the Genesis ribbon. Select "External Tendon" or "Internal Bonded." V12’s new allows you to click on the beam elevation view and snap the tendon curve using "Spline Fitting" instead of parabolic equations.
: Engineers can now automatically define temperature gradients for PSC and steel composite girders. This feature supports major international standards including AASHTO LRFD 2020 , Eurocode , and AS 5100 (Australia).
. This automatically exports member forces (axial, shear, moment), stresses, reactions, and displacements for selected load cases. MIDAS Support What can be included?
As of late 2024, Midas has moved toward version 2024 and 2025 builds, but remains the gold standard for long-term stability (LTS). Many firms refuse to upgrade to yearly releases due to validation overhead. V12 is expected to receive security and critical-bug support until December 2026 (typical Midas 4-year lifecycle).
Today, midas Civil remains a staple in the industry, used for everything from small highway overpasses to record-breaking suspension bridges. The 2022 v1.2 version is remembered as the release that solidified the software's move toward a more automated, user-friendly interface without sacrificing the deep analytical power required for heavy civil engineering.
