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

Thousands of professionals leverage VisualAnalysis (VA) to meet deadlines. Customers say it is "a great value" and "so easy to learn". You need practical tools; easy on your budget. 3D models of complete buildings, tanks, towers, etc. Static and dynamic response analysis. Design code checks for steel, wood, concrete, cold-formed steel, and aluminum. Complete analysis and design features including automatic plate meshing, command window, nonlinear elements, and dynamic time history analysis. 3D static and dynamic FEA for civil, mechanical, aerospace or any other structural analysis. Optional support of building code load combinations. Easily apply loads. Distribute area loads to members. Gravity and lateral loading in the same project. Create frame, truss, or FEA models of just about any structure. Sketch, generate, and import CAD, or BIM (Revit). Fast static, P-delta, AISC Direct, dynamic, and nonlinear. Proven and validated results.
