Description

In the intuitive interface of 123Build, users can effortlessly sketch a beam of a frame structure directly on the screen. Following this, the model is enhanced through a graphical and interactive process that incorporates boundary conditions along with both permanent and variable loads. 123Build takes care of the complexities, consistently producing optimal outcomes such as beams with minimal height, steel profiles with reduced weight, or girders that adhere to maximum deflection limits, allowing for both efficient and rapid design. This comprehensive solution encompasses all essential features required for effective structural design, culminating in the generation of a concise and easily understandable analysis report. Additionally, 123Build provides a detailed reinforcement sketch along with a material quantity list, which includes the total volume of timber and concrete, the overall weight and volume of reinforcement, as well as the painting surface and steel weight, ensuring a thorough understanding of the project’s requirements. This all-in-one approach not only streamlines the design process but also enhances accuracy in material estimation and structural integrity.

Description

ProtaSteel empowers structural engineers and detailers to swiftly automate the design of steel connections, generating high-quality steel detail drawings within minutes. By importing models created in ProtaStructure directly into ProtaSteel, users can save countless hours through the automated design of a diverse selection of bolted and welded steel connections tailored to their needs. It offers a 3D visualization tool that facilitates the coordination of models, allows for the addition of auxiliary steelwork, and enables thorough quantification and value engineering of projects. The software dramatically cuts down on both design and detailing time by automatically generating exceptional engineering drawings for all steelwork and connection specifics. Not only does this enhance the productivity of design teams, but it also boosts the profitability of business projects. Additionally, ProtaSteel simplifies project management by ensuring seamless coordination with other prominent BIM platforms such as Tekla Structures and Revit, fostering a more integrated workflow. In this way, engineers can focus more on creative problem-solving and innovation within their projects.
