If you’re a structural engineer looking for powerful steel connection design software, then make sure you tune into our free Advance Design Connection week.
Boost your knowledge and skills with Advance Design Connection free webinars! Advance Design Connection Week is a series of webinars dedicated to BIM Workflow based on Graitec products!
About Advance Design Connection
Advance Design Connection is a powerful analysis solution for 3D Steel connection, fully integrated with Advance Design which is a global structural analysis software including a powerful 3D climatic generator, advanced stability checks and steel members design and optimization. Advance Design Connection can design all types of 3D connections using internal forces on members coming from Advance Design. It provides precise checks, results of strength, stiffness and buckling analysis of a steel joint. Joints are checked according to Eurocodes and North American codes (EC & AISC). Templates for most-used connections are available as well as wide range of predefined hot rolled and sheet welded members.
Join Advance Design Connection Week – free webinars which will be held in English and French.
During the webinars we will cover the following areas:
- The workflow from Advance Design to Advance Design Connection –
In this webinar we will demonstrate how to export several connections of a steel structure which is modelled and analyzed in Graitec Advance Design (AD), to Graitec Advance Design Connection (ADC) software. You will see the automatic mapping procedure of sections and as well imported internal forces from AD. In the next step, we will create the connection geometry in ADC and run the analysis and code check process. Finally, we will go through the results of the analysis and status of the connection in ADC.
- The workflow from Melody to Advance Design Connection –
We will show the export of a real building attachment calculated with Advance Design to Advance Design Connection (ADC). Then the export of tubular structures from Melody portal to Advance Design Connection. In Advance Design Connection where we will automatically retrieve the profiles and the efforts of Advance Design or Melody, we will build the fasteners in a few minutes and exploit the results.
- The workflow Advance Design +Advance Steel to Advance Design Connection –
This webinar will cover the full workflow of steel connection design using Graitec Advance Design (AD), Autodesk Advance Steel (AS) and Graitec Advance Design Connection (ADC). First, we will export the structural node from AD to AS to transfer the sections, the geometry of the connection will be modelled in AS and exported to ADC. Then we will demonstrate how to import internal forces directly from AD into ADC.
- The new version of Graitec Advance Design connection (ADC 20.1) –
The new version of Graitec Advance Design connection (ADC 20.1) will be released soon. In this presentation we will focus on new features and functionalities of the new version. Some of the highlights are: Cost estimation / Pre-design tool / Check of missing welds
Why is it worth participating in Advance Design Connection Week?
- No marketing – 100 % practice
- Knowledge provided by professionals
- Examples of effective usage of software
- Priceless knowledge gained for free
Advance Design Connection Workflows:
- ANY TOPOLOGY
No limits in how many connections there are in the joint and how they are put together. Shape is defined by project requirements, not by software capabilities
- ANY LOADING
All forces are analyzed. The overall check of the joint takes into account interactions between all the beams and connections. Engineers stay on the safe side all the time.
- IN MINUTES
The whole design and check process is kept short enough to be a part of everyday work of structural engineers and fabricators all around the world.
