RSTAB
RSTAB is a powerful analysis and design software for 3D beam, frame, or truss structure calculations, reflecting the current state of the art and helping structural engineers meet requirements in modern civil engineering.
Use the successful structural frame & truss analysis software RSTAB for your design of beam, frame, or truss structures consisting of steel, reinforced concrete, timber, aluminum, or other materials.
With RSTAB, you can easily and quickly define a structural model and then calculate the internal forces, deformations, and support reactions. There are design add-ons at your side that you can use to consider the material- and standard-specific requirements.

AutoCAD Plant 3D
The 2022 Plant 3D toolset is included with AutoCAD. Create and edit P&ID’s, 3D models, and extract piping orthographics and isometrics with industry-specific toolset for plant design. Collaborate on plant design models across project teams and maintain compliance requirements, all in a cloud-based common data environment. The Plant 3D toolset is delivered with standard symbol libraries in the tool palettes. They include PIP, ISA, ISO/DIN, and JIS. Quickly identify possible errors by scanning P&IDs for data consistency according to user-definable rules. Quickly create 3D plant models using parametric equipment modeling, structural steel libraries, and project-specific piping specifications using industry standard piping catalogs. Extract piping orthographic drawings directly from the 3D model and update them as the 3D model is being updated. Work with other industry disciplines to create BIM models for the plant.

Altair S-FRAME
With S-FRAME, users can model, analyze, and design any structure regardless of its geometric complexity, material type, loading conditions, nonlinear effects, or design code requirements. S-FRAME’s automated framework generators build models quickly and import models with BIM and DXF import links, and users can maximize productivity with integrated concrete and steel design tools for design, optimization, code compliance, and report generation. With S-FRAME, users can quickly define structures using modeling automation to generate regular framework structures, and standard or custom trusses, and use clone tools to replicate all or part of the model. Additionally, users can save modeling time by importing existing BIM and DXF models. S-FRAME’s advanced meshing tools create the finite element mesh, giving users the power to generate detailed analysis results in their specific areas of interest. Users can explore those areas of interest by easily converting members to multi-shell models.

Framing
Framing, the design tool for timber frame and floor construction, is a modular solution to fit the needs and requirements of today’s offsite construction market. Utilized extensively by timber frame manufacturers, structural engineers and design practices, the Framing software is used for the detailing of timber frame buildings in 3D, producing comprehensive material schedules, and manufacturing drawings for manual production along with direct links to industry automated machinery and saws. Framing is used for the detailing of various different types of timber frame buildings. Whilst working in primarily a 2D environment, a 3D model is created based on the user’s input, thereby allowing easy checking of levels and heights within the application.
