Today we are summarising http://www.StruCompare.com, a platform that allows building designers to quickly generate preliminary structural designs for their projects in a web browser. Here’s a breakdown of the process: Import Architectural Plans: Start by importing architectural plans and an outline of the frame onto the platform. Generate Initial Design: The platform automatically generates a …

Outperform standard engineering with modern tech
Is there actually any new tech that can change engineering? And are there ways you could use it to outperform traditional engineers into the future?
Engineering Visualisation
Traditionally, engineers have communicated design primarily through drawings, sketches, specifications and reports. These types fall into either contracted deliverable documents, typically at project milestones (such as tender drawings and IFC specifications) or engineering advisory information (such as construction phase sketches and reports). As technology improves however, models are increasingly being used to communicate design rather …
Practical Parametrics for Structural Engineers
There are many practical ways parametrics can enhance and speed up engineering workflow. A lot of time can be saved from an average week by: Rapidly testing framing options in real-timeCreation of analysis models directly from Architectural information (including anything with difficult geometry)Assisting in collaboration with others by translating between different model formatsControlling and preventing …

Speed up engineering workflow with model conversion
Models are increasingly becoming central to engineering workflow and in some cases are even the main deliverable as we move towards a digital future. It is currently common for many models of the same building to be created throughout design, each with a different purpose and using different software. These can include: Architectural modelsAnalysis modelsStructural …
