Description

MecaWind is a specialized software tool designed to compute wind loads and pressures on the main wind force resisting system (MWFRS) of various structures, including buildings, towers, chimneys, tanks, solar panels, and more. It adheres to the ASCE 7 standard, which is the benchmark for design loads in the United States and is published by the American Society of Civil Engineers. The software features multiple iterations of the ASCE 7 standard, as well as the Florida Building Code (FBC), allowing users to access ASCE 7-05, ASCE 7-10, and the most current ASCE 7-16. Each version represents a distinct update to the standard, with ASCE 7-16 being the latest and including numerous revisions compared to ASCE 7-10. While ASCE 7-05 is part of the software's offerings, it is less commonly used in contemporary applications across various jurisdictions. This comprehensive suite enables engineers to ensure compliance with the latest building codes and standards for wind load assessments.

Description

Orbital Stack, an AI and CFD web-based program, provides earlier qualitative guidance. It compares a wide range of land-use options and shapes, and highlights any red flags. It allows for climate-conscious, high performance developments that are not possible with traditional studies. Orbital Stack was developed by world-renowned experts in microclimate engineering and wind. It is a game-changer in the architecture and building design industry, providing our clients direct access for wind comfort and safety analysis as well as thermal comfort and shadowing analysis and cladding pressure simulations. This allows architects to quickly understand the climate effects of their proposed building designs and make better decisions, resulting in more resilient and high-performing projects.
