New features in Revit 2018

Autodesk introduces new Autodesk Revit 2018. In this latest version lots of new tools are added to make multidisciplinary design and detailing to fabrication superior. There is also a new multi-story stair tool.

This new tool is specifically aimed at AEC disciplines as well as fabrication and construction.

Revit 2018 adheres to the public roadmap published by Autodesk in the recent past. The roadmap defines forward-looking themes that help guide and prioritize development of Revit features and functionality with input coming directly from end users via the Revit Ideas Page.

Revit 2018 facilitates the new designers and engineers to produce more precise design intent models and empowers the detailers to create models to a superior level of fidelity for fabrication and installation purposes.

Benefits for engineers: Revit 2018 brings some advanced features for MEP and structural engineers. It provides supplimentary controls for steel connections, improved workflows for engineering to steel detailer collaboration as well as assist in minimizing errors and making estimating and detailing more precise.

Given below, some of the exclusive features with new engineering or engineer-centric tools:

• Revit users will be able to generate steel connections among column, beam, and bracketing with any Revit family, along with custom user-defined
• Steel Connections for Revit add-in brings in over 100 new connections
• Now, it is possible to arrange rebar perfectly into curved or complex concrete shapes
• New SAT file and Autodesk InfraWorks
• Enhancement in fabrication modeling —model fabrication-ready elements
• Energy requirements in initial phase is obtained for user-definable space and building types

Availability: Active subscribers to Revit, suites containing Revit or the AEC Collection can avail all updates launched during their subscription term and can avail the new 2018 release through their Autodesk Account.

Revit 2018 is accessible worldwide for subscribers to Revit, or through a subscription to the Autodesk Architecture, Engineering, and Construction Collection. Revit 2018 is available in English, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Russian, Polish, Portuguese, Czech, Russian, Japanese, Chinese, and Korean.

Download The Sample Of Steel Frame Hangar Complete Design Drawings

Get the complete design drawings of CAD dwg,dxf and pdf Steel Frame Hangar. These entire sets of structural design drawings belong to industrial building. One can use them in the projects which will be executed in future.

The front half of the hangar remains at 18.0m single span portal frame while the second half remains at 36.0m double span portal frame containing a mezzanine steel floor. Elevated crane supported from the portal frame columns runs the entire span of the building. The whole building consists of 1,400square meters ( 15,000sq.feet ) of workshop area.

Single and double span roof supported with 40mm thick insulated sandwich panel system having rain water and valley gutters. The substantial horizontal crane loads (throughout stop and go) as well as other horizontal loadings ( i.e. earthquake, wind loads etc ) can be resisted by Portal frames bracing.

Foundation system is formed with single pad footings containing concrete pier column and connecting ground beams to make up differential settlement. All details are given below.

The entire set of drawings contain the following :

• plan views of column layout, foundation, mezzanine slab, crane & roof

• foundation details

• all steel column and beams connection details

• portal frame elevation views

• mezzanine steel decking slab cross section

• side elevation views with vertical bracing details

Autodesk launched AutoCAD Civil 3D 2017

Civil 3D AutoCAD is based on AutoCAD and specifically designed for surveyors, designers of the general plan, the designers of linear structures.

This cad program creates intelligent link among the objects as well as dynamically update all linked objects in revising the results of research or design solutions.

AutoCAD Civil 3D comprises of automated calculations and drawing tools which can make the procedures better for developing engineering structures.

Key features :

- Quick set up of the concept and execution of the project;

- Easily understandable design is created on the basis of the interaction of objects which facilitate to maintain the perfectness and rationality of all parts of the project;

- More than 1 user can access the project and its elements;

- Chance for quick development, project assessment and planning for output documents;

- Integration of drawing possibilities AutoCAD and specialized design features;

- A wide array of API functions (Application Programming Interface) which facilitate the users to develop solutions on the basis of a common data model;

- The capability to optimize the functionality;

- Dynamic engineering model comprises the elementary objects of geometry and keeps intelligent relationships amid objects (point, surface, land, roads, and planning);

- Support of drawing standards and styles;

- Create plans automatically;

- Functionality of AutoCAD the Map 3D.
