Be Part of the BIM Revolution. Improve Your Process with Building Information Modeling and Intelligent Structural Steel Detailing and Fabrication Software Be part of the BIM revolution. Improve your process with Building Information Modeling and intelligent structural steel detailing and fabrication software. Minimize time from design to fabrication Intelligent 3D modeling software for structural steel detailing and fabrication that helps to improve accuracy and reduce time from design to installation. 3D steel modeling with the intelligence of BIM user-friendly library enables you to access simple and complex structural connections, and when ® Autodesk Advance Steel structural steel detailing member size changes are made, connections are software is built to help structural engineers, automatically updated. detailers, and fabricators more quickly and easily create information-rich building models that can A built-in steel connection design engine that help drive the fabrication of steel components. checks connection compliance against AISC and EC3 standards helps validate your models. Check Building Information Modeling (BIM) is a process- your steel connections at any time against industry based workflow that helps businesses work more standards and then run a report with formulas efficiently and helps teams complete projects on included for printing and reference. time and on budget.

Bills of material (BOMs) can be easily created using ready-to-use templates. Quantities are defined by the parts used in the information-rich model, helping to eliminate waste with more accurate BOMs. Information can also be exported to different file formats so that it can be used in third-party systems, such as procurement solutions. Advance Steel also automatically generates computer numerical code (CNC) for use with most machine manufacturers—including welding robots—enabling you to drive fabrication straight from the 3D model.

  • SUCCESS STORY Tek Steel Ltd Saved Half Its Time with Autodesk® Advance Steel
    SUCCESS STORY Tek Steel Ltd saved half its time with Autodesk® Advance Steel Fire escape for Victoria Health center Nouveau-Brunswick Canada by Tek Steel Ltd Software used: Autodesk® Advance Steel The Victoria Health center, a Community Mental Health Services which promotes optimal mental health and independence for all individuals, requested to replace its non-conformed fire escape stairs. Tek Steel Ltd changed it with a three story self-supporting steel fire escape stairs in conformity to the fire code using Autodesk® Advance Steel. This switch back stair required a special cantilever design for the landings reaching the existing doors. Another challenge was that the project had to be done in a “fast track” manner to fulfill the client’s needs. Autodesk® Advance Steel really simplified the 3D modeling, speeded up the client’s project delivery and was a real money saver! Nowadays, steel detailers must have the good working tool to accomplish their work. As a mid-size steel fabricator doing “ most of our detailing in house we needed a tool able to rapidly create a full 3D model and to extract quick fabrication drawings. After evaluating different solutions Autodesk® Advance Steel was the best fit for our needs because of its capabilities for the miscellaneous steel and AutoCAD compliancy. Even though that I’m a new Advance Steel user I can say that I saved 50% of my time in this project as if I would have used my old StruCAD software. ” Don Dipaolo, Steel detailer, Tek Steel Ltd THE CHALLENGE THE SOLUTION - 2D shop and erection drawings

Many current project-modeling approaches construct and integrate a predefined central model from which task-specific views are constructed. Others construct and integrate a “federation” of predefined task-specific views. AEC processes have been slow to adopt these approaches. This paper formalizes the Perspective Approach, in which engineers from multiple disciplines iteratively construct geometric engineering
