EBPlate is a piece of software developed by CTICM with a partial funding of the European Research Fund for Coal and Steel (RFCS). It assesses the critical stresses associated to the elastic buckling of plates loaded in their plan.
EBPlate software provides accurate values of elastic critical stresses for a wide field of practical cases of rectangular plates subject to in-plane loading. Plates can be either stiffened or unstiffened, the stiffening being provided by longitudinal and/or transverse stiffeners; orthotropic plates can also be treated. Complex stresses patterns can easily be defined, including patch loads. Numerous display possibilities are available for data and results.
The User Graphical Interface is available in English, French, German and Spanish, whereas the Help file is provided only in English and in French. EBPlate V2. 01 has been validated and runs on the following OS: Microsoft Windows XP, Microsoft Windows Vista et Microsoft Windows Seven.
* EBPlate download link provides freeware version of the software.
Buckling Analysis for Plates with or Without Stiffeners
The RF-/PLATE-BUCKLING is available as an add‑on module for RFEM/RSTAB or as a separate stand‑alone program.
Lateral Torsional Buckling of Beams
LTBeam is a software which deals with the elastic Lateral Torsional Buckling of Beams under bending action about their major axis.
This calculation deals with the deflection, stress and variation of forces in the loaded flat plates.
Calculation Slender Strut (Column) Buckling
MITCalc Buckling is designed to calculate the optimum cross-section and perform strength check of slender struts strained for buckling
ArcelorMittal-CTICM Columns Calculator
The A3C software allows the designer to perform the detailed verification of a single steel member or a composite steel-concrete column according to the rules of the Eurocodes.
Elastic Stresses At The Top and In The Middle of a Beam
This Steel Design App lets you determine the elastic stresses at the top and in the middle of a beam, given the forces on the beam based on the theory of Huber-Hencky.

I also ran into the same error 481 during startup (unable to find EBPlate. BIM). However, I figured out it does work when you run the app as administrator. Tested under Windows 10
Why is the EBPlate sofware not working on my PC but giving me a run-time 481 error message and subsequently an invalid picture msg.
