CADS Link SCIA Engineer Westok Cellbeam Westok cellular
CADS Link SCIA Engineer. Westok Cellbeam Westok cellular non-composite and composite beams GLOBAL CONSTRUCTION SOFTWARE AND SERVICES www. cads. co. uk
Model in SCIA Engineer Global 3 D model of structure Different materials in one model Interaction of all members Unlimited number of load cases No module for design of Westok cellular beams GLOBAL CONSTRUCTION SOFTWARE AND SERVICES www. cads. co. uk
Westok Cellbeam Design/check performed in manufacturer software Each beam is separate, independent structure Limited number of load cases in the software Time consuming modelling in case of many beams GLOBAL CONSTRUCTION SOFTWARE AND SERVICES www. cads. co. uk
CADS Link Part of SCIA Engineer Transfers geometry and loadings from Scia Engineer 3 D model to Cellbeam software single beams Automatically generates lateral top restraints, where secondary beams are connected to the main beam After beams design in Westok software, updated sections/ holes sizes are transferred back to SCIA Engineer GLOBAL CONSTRUCTION SOFTWARE AND SERVICES www. cads. co. uk
Example: 3 D model of the whole structure built and analysed in SCIA Engineer (beams with Westok sections) GLOBAL CONSTRUCTION SOFTWARE AND SERVICES www. cads. co. uk
After running the link (export ), geometry data and loadings for all Westok beams are transferred to Westok Cellbeam, and can be designed GLOBAL CONSTRUCTION SOFTWARE AND SERVICES www. cads. co. uk
After design in Westok software updated sections are transferred back to SCIA Engineer ( import), and may be used in global analysis of the structure GLOBAL CONSTRUCTION SOFTWARE AND SERVICES www. cads. co. uk
