04
Precision and Quality Control
Our steel frames are prefabricated to precise specifications, which enhances the overall quality and consistency of the construction. This precision reduces the likelihood of errors during construction and results in a higher-quality final product.
Architectural Conversions Made Easy
Seamless Integration with Major Architectural Programs:
With our software we can effortlessly import multi-level DXF floor plans from popular programs like Chief Architect, ArchiCAD, and AutoCAD. This compatibility allows architects to efficiently transform their digital plans into detailed steel frame designs, maintaining precision and reducing the time spent on design conversion.
Enhanced Productivity and Accuracy:
By streamlining the design process, our software increases productivity and accuracy. Architects can smoothly transition from initial concepts to fully realised steel framing designs, facilitating a more efficient workflow.
Preservation of Original Design Intent:
One of the key benefits of our software is its ability to retain your initial design plans, which might have been intended for traditional building methods. This means there is no need to start over or compromise the essence of your original architectural vision, ensuring a continuity that respects your creative process.
Cost and Time Efficiency:
The software we use opens up opportunities for more cost-effective building solutions. Leveraging the streamlined design process specific to steel framing, architects can realize faster and more economical construction processes without sacrificing design quality or integrity.
In essence, our design software bridges the gap between traditional architectural planning and the future of construction technology. It offers architects an optimal mix of innovation, efficiency, and practicality, making steel framing design more accessible and effective. This tool is not just about adapting to new methods; it’s about enhancing and respecting the architect’s original vision while embracing the advancements in construction technology.
