Description
The development of formwork, positioning, and shop drawings encompasses all essential features necessary for structural design, including associative dimensioning, level indicators, hatching, and various symbols. It includes layouts for steel bars and mesh suitable for any reinforcement scenario, ensuring seamless integration with AutoCAD, along with customizable settings to meet office standards through styles. It allows for the direct generation of schedules, supports user-defined shapes, and facilitates the export of existing reinforcements for calculations based on the second-order theory. The system also offers a polygonal mesh layout and macros designed for creating parametric members, with the Macros Module requiring detailing capabilities. Additionally, it provides comprehensive check, production, and layout plans specifically for BAMTEC customized reinforcement carpets. This functionality enables the fully automated generation of reinforcement carpets, includes all necessary drawings consolidated into a single file, allows for the subsequent arrangement of areas, and features extensive editing options for various area specifications, whether by value or by the diameter and number of bars. Moreover, users can easily modify the designs to accommodate specific project needs, ensuring maximum flexibility in their structural planning.
