- Perspective and modelling view in 3-D, and plan and side elevations view
- Fly-Through animation
Analysis
- Total integration of floor key plans for 3-D analysis
- Automatic adaptive mesh generation for well-graded triangular and quadrilateral shell elements
- Full integration of total input of beam, column and wall for automatic 3-D modelling, including wall opening, offsets of beam, column and wall
- Post-analysis load combinations, graphical deflection and analysis textual output
- Automatic data feed-back from floor plan analysis for 3-D analysis and vice versa for floor plan design of beam and column with full integration of:
- All floor plans gravity load effects for 3-D analysis based on actual beam support in total input
- Wind and notional load effects for total project design and detailing of beam, column, wall, pile and pad footing
- P-Delta analysis of selected load combinations
- Seismic
- Steel member section
- Stage Construction
Design and Detailing
