CHALLENGE
- – The structure consists of tapered box beams made of “Y-shaped” welded plates
- – The architect’s main constraint was that no bolt should remain visible
- – The weight of the steel elements makes it difficult to transport them and assemble them
- – Need to display precise details in 3D for easy understanding by the architect
SOLUTION
- – Modeling of all weld preparation on beams and plates edges for easy welding at site
- – Automatic collision detection
- – Realistic 3D model and clear 2D and 3D assembly views
- – DSTV files are generated from the Advance Steel model for the monitoring of the CNC machinery
USERS’ BENEFITS
- – Precise 3D modeling
- – No errors at site
- – Create DSTV files for the fabrication of complex elements
“We did not receive a single phone call from the site foreman to report any error!”
