About

The Braceworks® add-on module for Vectorworks Spotlight provides design, production, and rigging professionals with an easy way to gauge the performance of temporary structures under load. This one-of-a-kind module helps ensure safety and compliance with engineering codes and standards, creating a completely integrated modeling, analysis, and documentation process in one interface. Regulatory requirements, such as the Eurocodes, and increasing requirements from venues, municipalities, and building owners, are making it necessary for event design, A/V, and rigging companies to produce load and structure calculations for sign off by structural engineers. Conduct static analyses and FEM analysis with results that display graphically on the model for easy reference. Automatically generate detailed calculation reports.

About

Simcenter Simsolid is a Siemens simulation and structural analysis tool that helps designers and engineers analyze fully featured CAD assemblies without geometry simplification or meshing. By removing two of the most time-consuming steps in traditional FEA, it allows teams to validate structural performance much faster. The software can handle large and complex assemblies, including models with rough contact surfaces, gaps, or overlapping geometry. Simcenter Simsolid delivers accurate results in seconds to minutes on a standard PC, making it useful for rapid design comparison and simulation-driven development. It supports a wide range of analysis types, including linear and nonlinear statics, thermal analysis, modal analysis, fatigue analysis, dynamic simulations, buckling, composites, and random response. With CAD interoperability, advanced connections, materials, boundary conditions, and visualization tools, Simcenter Simsolid helps teams bring better products to market faster.
