Description

BentStudio serves as an online platform for designing timber and log structures, catering to various projects ranging from small garden sheds and pergolas to larger cabins, workshops, and timber barns. - Create your design: begin with a choice of timber-frame, post-and-beam, or dovetail log-wall configurations. Adjust measurements, sections, roof shapes, trusses, dormers, and lean-tos while the model reflects your changes in real time. - Review your project: seamlessly transition between 3D views, floor plans, and elevation sketches. Examine details closely, focusing on joints, notches, supports, and individual components. - Prepare for construction: save different versions of your project and generate a PDF drawing package complete with timber lists, cutting coordinates, and a modifiable project file. Accessible through a desktop browser, BentStudio also offers an offline HTML download option. The cost is a one-time payment of CAD $199 for a single Studio license, with no recurring fees involved. It’s important to note that BentStudio functions solely as a design and layout tool, rather than a structural engineering service. This makes it an ideal choice for creatives looking to bring their timber building visions to life without the complexities of engineering calculations.

Description

LoopCAD stands out as the leading software for efficiently generating high-quality circuit layout designs specifically for radiant heating systems. The latest version, LoopCAD 2021, introduces a suite of sophisticated design capabilities such as built-in calculations for heating and cooling loads, comprehensive hydronic assessments, snowmelt design features, 3D CAD visualizations, and support for various original equipment manufacturer (OEM) design techniques and materials. Additionally, the MJ8 Edition now incorporates ACCA®-Approved Manual J® (8th Edition) calculations tailored for residential heating and cooling requirements. Renowned for its user-friendliness and power, LoopCAD is arguably the most effective tool available for radiant heating design. Users can swiftly create floorplan layouts utilizing a library of predefined elements like rooms, doors, and windows. Adjusting room dimensions is as simple as dragging the walls or corners, and the software allows for seamless integration of rooms to form intricate floor plans. Furthermore, the ability to quickly modify room shapes enables the design of highly complex layouts, while the inclusion of freehand drawing tools allows for even greater creative flexibility in crafting unique shapes. Overall, LoopCAD combines efficiency with advanced functionality, making it an invaluable resource for designers.
