Quality Assurance
• 64-Bit application that
utilizes multiple processing Since 1983, the GT STRUDL QA/QC program has been in full compliance with
cores applicable provisions of the U.S. NRC’s 10CFR21 and 10CFR50 Appendix B regulations.
In addition, GT STRUDL QA procedures conform to the ASME NQA 1- 2008, including
the 2009 Addenda Subpart 2.7 (NQA-1a-2009). This means that every release of GT
STRUDL earns the trust of structural engineers by providing accurate analysis results.
