Structural Steel Detailing Is Easier With Prosteel 3d
Due to the software's close integration with AutoCAD, a user can use AutoCAD commands to edit and manipulate objects via AutoCAD's Object ARX interface, while also being able to work with a wide range of sizes from the very complex to the very minute. ProSteel 3D is also user friendly. Pop-up trays or menus, toolbar buttons are easy to see in the interface, something that ProSteel 3D's developers did to make your work faster. Also, these menus also allow you to preview the changes while mousing over the various options in the menu you have open. Further, ProSteel 3D is an open system, so you can specify your own steel standards. All details are stored in a database which anybody can edit and add to. More than that, a user can use dBase or Excel to add new custom sizes and shapes. With all this flexibility, what you get is more efficiency and productivity! Further, completing typical construction applications easily is possible. Now you can easily do aluminum and shelving, plant and steel building, equipment, heavy machinery, marine and structural steel applications! While ProSteel 3D uses all the standard AutoCAD features, it also adds its own suite of functionalities, including: * allowing the user to create ribs by measure, complete or half and even diagonal ribs; * utilizing sheet metals and steel shapes anywhere in the model; * user defined connections or DSTV/AISC standards dictate plate, web angle connections; * automatic placement of wall and roof elements to optimized surfaces; * capability to render 2D details with full object selection control and view depth, construction lines depth definition! Further, ProSteel 3D has the capability to be used with other third party applications including air conditioning, petrochemical engineering, architecture, process engineering, and plant construction, among others. ProSteel 3D's open architecture enables the user to use it in conjunction with other software! Lastly, ProSteel 3D has various interfaces for different user needs. There are interfaces that are unique to steel fabrication and construction. This interface lists parts needed, components needed for building and some statistics, among other things. Anybody familiar with AutoCAD will find ProSteel 3D easy to learn and use, because it uses AutoCAD commands especially in editing and modifying different objects. In short, not only does your team become more efficient and productive in less time, you also save on having to train them, both in terms of time and money.
