What is SolidFEA?

SolidFEA is an innovative solid finite element analysis tool designed to make advanced structural engineering design more reachable and cost-efficient. Leveraging the power of the Calculix engine, it offers comprehensive sub-model analysis while demanding less financial outlay and computational resources compared to rivals such as Abaqus. This software excels in addressing complex engineering challenges, particularly in areas like steel connections and bridge design, empowering users by simplifying access to specialized tools. Notably, SolidFEA's capability to import IFC file formats allows it to seamlessly fit into current engineering workflows, thereby enhancing the capabilities of our GenFEA software for comprehensive structural assessments. By reducing the traditional barriers associated with solid finite element analysis (FEA), SolidFEA signifies a major leap forward in structural engineering design, fostering innovation by opening the door for more engineers to engage in intricate projects. Moreover, its intuitive interface and compatibility features pave the way for a new standard of efficiency in engineering methodologies, ultimately transforming how professionals approach complex structural challenges.

What is OpenBuildings Designer?

OpenBuildings Designer, formerly known as AECOsim Building Designer, represents Bentley's all-encompassing solution for building information modeling (BIM) across multiple disciplines. This powerful tool allows users to explore, innovate, and accelerate the design and construction processes of buildings more efficiently than ever before. It provides the capability to design, analyze, document, and visualize structures, regardless of their size or complexity, thereby improving the clarity of design intent and addressing challenges among various building disciplines and geographically dispersed teams. By enhancing building information modeling practices, the software not only facilitates quicker project delivery but also boosts confidence in critical areas such as design accuracy, workflow efficiency, and overall productivity. It encourages collaboration between architects and engineers from mechanical, electrical, and structural backgrounds through a unified suite of tools and processes, thus improving project management. Moreover, users can easily integrate information from different formats, allowing them to take on projects of any scale while ensuring that their design objectives are conveyed effectively through customizable and reliable outputs. This holistic strategy ultimately revolutionizes the building design process, rendering it more interconnected and efficient, which in turn supports a more sustainable approach to construction and design innovation.
