What if, as a structural engineer, you could create one data set (model) for the entire building design

–Steel (joists, composite steel beams)–Concrete (frames, shear walls, slabs, PT, reinforcing)–Foundations (mats, pile caps, combined, pad)–Connections (gussets, moment, base plates, prequalified)–Codes (seismic, load combos, load generators)

...and use this dataset to automatically create and maintain engineering drawings and schedules

…and satisfy BIM requirements…

How could that impact your work and bottom line?

Simplify Your Workflow
