AutoCAD

AutoCAD is a computer-aided design software developed by the company Autodesk (hence the name AutoCAD). It allows you to draw and edit digital 2D and 3D designs more quickly and easily than you could by hand. The files can also be easily saved and stored in the cloud, so they be accessed anywhere at anytime.

Benefits of CAD

  • Increases Productivity. …
  • Higher Quality Designs. …
  • Reuse and Easily Change Designs. …
  • Easier to Read. …
  • Simplified Sharing. …
  • Documenting the Design. …
  • Skill of the Designer. …
  • Designing Physical Objects in a Virtual Workspace.

Sketchup

SketchUp is an intuitive 3D modeling application that lets you create and edit 2D and 3D models with a patented “Push and Pull” method. The Push and Pull tool allows designers to extrude any flat surface into 3D shapes. All you have to do is click an object and then start pulling it until you like what you see.

Advantages of SketchUp

  • It’s easy to draw your design because it’s designed to behave like an extension of your hand.
  • Adjust to the lifelike drawings you’ll create fast. That’s because SketchUp is an intuitive, powerful and simple-to-learn 3D drawing tool.
  • SketchUp allows you to render surfaces in an array of “styles”. Pick from a variety of architecture that best suits your design and pleases your client.
  • SketchUp makes it easy to integrate with software that furnishes additional capabilities. It also supports third-party “plug-in” programs.  
  • With SketchUp you can place your model within “Google Earth” – right on the actual site!

Import steel connections from STAAD.Pro | IDEA StatiCa

STAAD.PRO

STAAD stands for Structural Analysis and Designing. STAAD Pro helps structural engineers automate their tasks by removing the tedious and long procedures of the manual methods.  STAAD allows structural engineers to analyze and design virtually any type of structure.

Benefits of Ansys

  • STAAD.Pro is designed to help the industries by making their analysis and design job easier
  • STAAD Pro saves time as it does not involve any manual calculation
  • STAAD Pro shows accurate results in the measurement of Shear Force and Bending Moment.
  • STAAD Pro does not involve any manual calculation; hence, it saves time and increases efficiency.
  • STAAD Pro helps the engineers in improving the structure, section, and dimensions.
