Structure V9.1.1 delivers advanced design engineering capabilities, saving you time and money
FRAMECAD is excited to announce the latest release of our structural engineering software: FRAMECAD Structure V9.1.1.
With many updates and improvements based on direct customer feedback, changes will result in faster detailing of trusses, reduction of manual editing, and a much simpler approach when detailing.
Now upgraded to the latest IntelliCAD 9.1 integrated engineering platform, FRAMECAD Structure saves you time and money by automating more engineering calculations than ever before. Completing over 25,000 calculations per square meter of roof, floors and walls in seconds, FRAMECAD Structure can improve your engineering time by up to 80%.
FRAMECAD Structure makes real time engineering calculations as the designs are created, analyzing loads, deflections and other forces, making it an easy process to check for compliant engineering. The software creates a design checklist automatically generated based on the building code and other design factors. The enhanced 3D view displays framing components and easy step-by-step truss, joist and wall builders.
With its universal design format and instant engineering analysis, FRAMECAD Structure is the world's most compliant engineering software for cold formed steel construction. FRAMECAD Structure has been developed for worldwide application - it draws from CFS building codes for USA, Canada, China, Europe, Russia, Brazil, South Africa and Australia/New Zealand.
FRAMECAD are now offering a free 30-day trial of FRAMECAD Structure.
