GRAITEC, an international BIM and CAD software developer for AEC and all round structural industry specialist, released Advance PowerPack 2016, its complementary extension to Autodesk® Advance Steel 2016.
In line with the recent release of Autodesk® Advance Steel 2016, GRAITEC releases Advance PowerPack 2016 for Autodesk® Advance Steel 2016, with many new tools, utilities and functions, plus updates to existing features. This new version introduces a wealth of localised manufacturer profiles and more predefined default settings, whilst new tools for creating splines of complex helical stair stringers expands the toolset for high-end stair manufacturers, and tools for automatic creation of floor coverings, based on standard grating sizes addresses more needs of its plant users.
The 2016 version also introduces cloud connectivity and crucially integrates bidirectional links with Advance Workshop, GRAITEC’s newly launched Steel Fabrication MIS solution, enabling Advance Steel users to retrieve and graphically display colour-coded production statuses in their models.
