Autodesk Advance Steel
Advance Steel is a Dedicated Steel detailing package, the Software tool is a 3D modelling environment that then translates into a document management system. The 3D model consists of intelligent structural objects such as Beams, Plates, Bolts and Welds, with these combined together using the Parametric Connection tools that can be propagated within the model via connection copying tools, the model then becomes the hub for the creation of General Arrangements, Shop Assembly and Part drawings to allow for fabrication. These tools also extend into platework with ability to create complex folded plate details for flat pattern development drawings for shop use. Tools for creating steel frameworks from intelligent macros that allow for adjustments to the overall frame dimensions, section profile selection, this combined with the Parametric connection’s tools for standard connections types, with the ability to create custom connection details for bespoke situations.

Spoak
We are an online interior design studio for enthusiasts and professionals. Get a real-world design education, easy-to-use tools, job opportunities, and a tight-knit community. All levels welcome. Learning Photoshop, CAD, or SketchUp takes years (and lots of dollars). Organizing a project takes 6,810 tabs (that’s a rough estimate). Spoak’s toolkit, including our rendering tool Viz and our Project Editor, were built exclusively for interior design so you can envision rooms and floor plans in minutes, and keep images, products, and all the other details in one place. Now you can actually enjoy the design process! Interior design school is a huge time and money commitment. And it doesn’t prepare you for the realities of the real-world. BeSpoak School is an online, self-paced interior design business school created by pros. It’s a real-world design education for hobbyists, beginners, and full time designers.

ConstruSteel
Easily generate scribing lines/layout marking on steel profiles and plates for quick & easy assembly in the workshop. Advanced bar nesting software to optimize material use (such as steel beams and flat bars) for less waste and efficient production. To reduce failure costs, improve quality and speed up production, ConstruSteel provides Advanced Scribing software for steel fabricators, steel suppliers and steel service centers. Advanced Scribing is a unique Tekla Structures plug-in for scribing steel/layout marking steel beams and plates for the structural steel industry. By adding your own defined scribing/layout marking on selected or all steel profiles in your 3D BIM model, the production data (.nc1 files) for CNC machines is updated automatically.
