Description

ProStructures is an all-encompassing application designed for the design of steel and concrete structures, aimed at enhancing both productivity and profitability in your projects. This powerful tool enables users to build and seamlessly update three-dimensional models that incorporate structural steel and reinforced concrete elements. ProSteel, a key component of this suite, facilitates the modeling and detailing of steel structures catering to various sectors. Users can efficiently generate models and documentation for steel frameworks, ensuring the delivery of precise 3D representations while extracting essential engineering, fabrication, and erection drawings. The application allows for automatic updates whenever modifications are made to the 3D model, ensuring that all information remains current. It also produces detailed drawings for every conceivable steel shape, connection, and plate work directly from the 3D representation. Moreover, it has the capability to generate and refresh in-drawing reports, external documentation, and bills of material. Additionally, users can create comprehensive 3D models alongside design drawings, fabrication specifics, and schedules that automatically reflect any alterations made to the 3D model, streamlining the entire design process further. This integration of features makes ProStructures an invaluable asset for professionals in the field.

Description

SolidFEA is a groundbreaking solid finite element analysis tool that aims to make sophisticated structural engineering design both more accessible and cost-effective. Utilizing the Calculix engine, it provides in-depth sub-model analysis while requiring less financial investment and computing power compared to competitors such as Abaqus. This software is particularly well-suited for tackling intricate engineering challenges, such as those found in steel connections and bridge engineering, and it empowers users by making specialized software easier to access. With its ability to import IFC file formats, SolidFEA integrates smoothly into existing engineering workflows, enhancing the functionality of our GenFEA software for thorough structural analysis. By lowering entry barriers traditionally tied to solid finite element analysis (FEA), SolidFEA represents a significant advancement in structural engineering design and encourages innovation by allowing more engineers to participate in complex projects. Ultimately, its user-friendly design and compatibility features facilitate a new era of efficiency in engineering practices.
