What is GRAITEC Advance Design?

Advance Design is a powerful and intuitive FEM Structural Analysis software specifically designed for structural engineers engaged in a BIM environment. It efficiently manages the design of various structures, accommodating a range of load conditions while incorporating concrete, timber, and steel elements in a cohesive manner. Adhering to essential code standards such as Eurocodes and North American regulations, Advance Design significantly enhances the BIM experience. The software promotes intelligent, model-driven processes that are advantageous for both engineers and construction professionals. Acting as a BIM platform, it maintains the integrity of geometric and analytical data throughout the design lifecycle through seamless model exchanges. Additionally, the analysis results are stored within the Digital Model, adding substantial value to the BIM workflow. For instance, these findings can directly support the development of rebar designs or steel connection configurations within Revit, paving the way for innovative structural design solutions. With its robust features, user-friendly interface, and complete compatibility with Revit®, Advance Design is supported by a team of dedicated professionals and presents a flexible licensing framework to meet varying user requirements. This blend of capabilities not only simplifies the design process but also positions Advance Design as an indispensable resource for contemporary structural engineering projects, ensuring engineers are well-equipped to navigate the complexities of modern infrastructure challenges.

What is Formit?

FormIt Pro is a specialized component of the architecture, engineering, and construction collection. This intuitive 3D sketching tool is tailored for the conceptual design phase, empowering users to craft and adjust their designs anytime and anywhere within a powerful yet simple interface. It enhances informed design decisions by considering various elements like site characteristics, solar impacts, and energy evaluations. Moreover, it flawlessly integrates conceptual designs into Building Information Modeling (BIM) processes thanks to its compatibility with Revit. The professional iteration of FormIt not only includes all the features of the standard version but also boasts advanced computational abilities through Dynamo, along with improved collaboration and analysis functionalities. Users experience enhanced interoperability between FormIt Pro and Revit, as they can directly import FormIt files into their Revit projects. This capability fosters roundtrip workflows that enrich design exploration, providing more intuitive modeling within FormIt. Additionally, the application streamlines the transition between initial concepts and later design stages, effectively catering to both 3D sketching and comprehensive documentation needs. With its robust features, users can look forward to a more integrated experience that significantly optimizes their design workflows and fosters creativity.
