Description
Advance Steel is a specialized steel detailing software that operates within a 3D modeling framework, which ultimately integrates into a document management system. This 3D model is comprised of smart structural components, including beams, plates, bolts, and welds, which can be assembled using Parametric Connection tools that facilitate the duplication of connections throughout the model. Consequently, this model serves as a central hub for generating general arrangement drawings, shop assembly drawings, and part drawings essential for the fabrication process. Additionally, the software possesses features for platework, enabling the creation of intricate folded plate details required for flat pattern development drawings intended for shop applications. The program includes tools for constructing steel frameworks utilizing intelligent macros that accommodate adjustments to overall frame dimensions and section profile selections, all while leveraging Parametric connection tools for standard connection types and the flexibility to design custom connection details tailored for unique circumstances. This comprehensive approach ensures that every stage of the detailing process is streamlined and efficient, ultimately enhancing productivity in steel fabrication projects.
Description
BeamChek is an intuitive structural design software tailored for architects, engineers, home designers, and contractors, delivering rapid and precise calculations for beams, joists, rafters, and columns. It accommodates a variety of materials, including steel, wood, timber, and composite, enabling users to analyze different load scenarios and choose from 57 wood species or enter their own custom values. With its user-friendly interface and instant diagram features, the software streamlines the design process by providing thorough boundary checks and error detection. BeamChek is sold as a one-time purchase and includes complimentary technical support, ensuring users have help when needed. The software minimizes the need to navigate through complex menus, offers common default settings, and reduces the back-and-forth between forms. It maintains consistent input methods for beam applications and conditions, allowing for more efficient selections with additional buttons for frequently used settings. Consequently, this leads to less typing and quicker outcomes. Users can also compare acceptable beams across two species groups and grades before making a final decision on member width, depth, or grade, enhancing their overall design experience. This comprehensive functionality makes BeamChek a valuable tool for anyone involved in structural design.
