SOFiSTiK Bridge Modeler – A robust software to apply BIM in bridge design & modeling

Sofistik, the leading software developer, has launched SOFiSTiK Bridge Modeler that can be used to develop parametric bridge models with alignment parameters.

It is user-friendly tool for bridge planners all through the globe. The software produces completely parametric input and semi-automated, adaptable plan creation, simplifying the process to analyse several design variants.

With SOFiSTiK, it becomes easier to obtain step-by-step complicated geometries based on the smallest detail. It can be performed by first selecting one or more axes from the road planner or by specifying the axes out of horizontal or vertical layout information. Then the required bridge cross-section is chosen from the adjustable cross-section families the software offers.

The Bridge Modeler contains advanced modeling capabilities and parameterization of the whole structure to make simple and easy analysis of numerous variants along with the computation of dimensions and costs.

The model is utilized to automatically create cross-sections with pre-dimensioned views and sections. These and other user-generated views or lists are also automatically modified with regard to modifications to the model.

The users can also produce a developed section cut of the model in Revit and add tags to it.

The software supports BIM in Bridge Design and Detailing. The users can produce parametrized 3D bridge models with alignment parameters and generic families in Autodesk® Revit® 2019.

Designers can produce 3d models and attain design-based BIM workflow with new training manuals launched by Nemetschek Vectorworks

Nemetschek Vectorworks launched two new guidebooks alias Vectorworks Architect Tutorial Manual, Seventh Edition and 3D Modeling in Vectorworks, Seventh Edition to simplify the use of Vectorworks® Architect 2015 software. The well-known trainer Jonathan Pickup performs as the author of these two exclusive guidebooks.

The guidebooks will facilitate the users as well as various 3D modeling and BIM professionals to be familiar with various professional training tools.

Vectorworks Architect Tutorial Manual will guide the users to integrate Vectorworks 2015’s tools inside a design-based BIM workflow as well as how workflow is improved with the new types of drawing. The readers can also gather knowledge on the fundamentals of the software interface.

Vectorworks Architect Tutorial Manual is segregated into three parts - read a section of text, watch a video and then accomplish an exercise.

The tutorial manual starts with the debut to the Vectorworks Architect platform and advances with the execution of a mock project of a residential client along with how to produce the contract documents. Besides, drawing with lines and arcs, the readers will learn to create drawings with objects as well as enhance workflows by making projects through BIM principles.

While drawing a door with Vectorworks software, the users can include information concerning the door to the existing model part, affix door hardware as well as indicate the supplier and cost of the door through a report.

The second updated tutorial, 3D Modeling in Vectorworks, is also divided in three sections. Section one teaches the readers how to apply the software's tools for generating 3D models independently. Section two guides the users for making a freeform architectural project with the use of the technology. Section three demonstrates the workflow in action and lets the readers to know how to break up projects. There are also exercises inside the book on the new Deform tool useful for learning the twisting, tapering, building and bending modes.

The Vectorworks Architect Tutorial Manual and 3D Modeling in Vectorworks are an integral segment of Nemetschek Vectorworks’ self-learning training options. For getting more updates and purchase option, visit www.vectorworks.net/training/guides.php

One can access the Books when Jonathan signs copies of his books on Wednesday, April 29, 2015 from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. ET in the Paris Foyer at the Sofitel Philadelphia Hotel. All registered attendees of the Vectorworks Design Summit will be eligible to participate in the program.

Improve your 3d cad modeling & 3d printing process with SpaceClaim Engineer 2014 SP1

NeoMetrix Technologies recently introduced the latest version of 2014 SP1 of SpaceClaim Engineer 3D direct modeling software.

With a new module in this latest version, the users will be able to directly adjust STL and CAD files as well as patching up models for 3D printing. STL Prep for 3D Printing is applied to evaluate and clean intersections; making sure that the model is water-resistant; and fix inverted normals, intersecting facets and other problems which result in print failures.

Being able to directly edit STL files, the users can carve the model in various sections with the selection of a plane, elimination of minute features, breaking up the STL for multi-material printing, allocating color variations, and deconstructing the part and/or organizing features into superior positions for having more optimized 3D print. The Users also get the ability to combine an STL with another STL or a solid, solidify an STL to make the potency better, generate connecting features, or make options like overmolds.

Print can be optimized by using SpaceClaim STL Prep’s shell tool. Besides, it can save on material, produce offset parts, or identify diversified interior regions of a part. STL Prep for 3D Printing can also minimize the sizes of the file to make printer performance superior with decimation.

SpaceClaim STL Prep provides support for several file Formats as well as save & export STL files from SpaceClaim directly to the printer for efficient printing process. STL Prep for 3D Printing is compatible with 2D files and other faceted formats like OBJ, cgr, & AMF.
