Description

The Braceworks® add-on for Vectorworks Spotlight offers design, production, and rigging experts a streamlined method to assess the performance of temporary structures when subjected to loads. This innovative module prioritizes safety and adherence to engineering regulations, facilitating a fully integrated process for modeling, analysis, and documentation all within a single interface. With regulatory demands like the Eurocodes and the rising expectations of venues, municipalities, and property owners, event design, A/V, and rigging firms are increasingly required to provide load and structural calculations for approval by structural engineers. Users can perform static analyses and finite element method (FEM) evaluations, with results visually represented on the model for straightforward interpretation. Furthermore, it allows for the automatic creation of comprehensive calculation reports, enhancing efficiency and accuracy in the documentation process. By simplifying these complex tasks, the module ultimately supports professionals in delivering safe and compliant events.

Description

ConnectCAD is developed using Vectorworks Spotlight, allowing users to leverage its comprehensive and adaptable design and documentation features that have established Spotlight as a benchmark in the industry. Boasting a vast library of manufacturers and a customizable hybrid environment in both 2D and 3D, you can be confident that you possess all the tools necessary for effective design. Furthermore, ConnectCAD facilitates smooth collaboration not just among your team members, but also with event planners and various project stakeholders, enhancing the overall teamwork experience. This level of integration and communication ensures that collaboration is more efficient than ever before.
