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.
