For efficient production of Structural Engineering Computations & Member Schedules in PDF/DXF/DWG formats

Allow you to Analyse, design and document beams or columns in Timber and/or Steel with optional sizing.
Australian & NZ Standards - Design Timber to AS1720-2010 or NZS-3603, HR Steel to AS4100 & CF Steel AS4600 (WS Codes optional)

Analyse and Design Multi-span beams & Columns with Cantilevers, point, UDL and Triangular UDL's. Moving load group option with displayable action envelopes.
Allows import of 2D & 3D frame analysis results from MultiFrame*, MicroStran* & SpaceGASS* for post processing.
Allows multiple load cases with automatic combination builder.
Allows input & application of stress and serviceability system effects for compatibility with AS1684:2021 design rules
Continuous beams with up to 9 spans and up to 15 Basic Combination Cases

Create multiple Member Schedules automatically and export them to working drawings as DXF or AutoCAD* DWG files
Create load paths though a structure with load tracking with change and failure notification.
Allows member reactions to be applied as loads to other members with automatic load case transfer.
Smart form editor enables Creation of standard forms (Form 126 and others), mailing labels etc using project variables and optional printers.
Import your existing spreadsheet programs for inclusion in finished documents. Edit, display and include Excel© style spreadsheets in computations pages.
Generate and manipulate PDF documents. (Smart PDF editor with ability to include 3^rd party documents & rearrange page order)
Includes CLT design checks with O/S & Australian timbers species.
Check sections for holes, notches, taper-cuts and haunches

Smart Load Tracker © allows full dropdown of applied loads to supporting members irrespective of order of input.
Smart Deflection Tracker © provides global deflection checks using accumulated support member deflections
Colour coded visible mark list with icon tags to indicated calculation status.
Smart calculation status reports.
Optional Simplified screen layout option which is suitable on small or low-resolution screens.

With additional modules

Import details from architectural drawings (via DXF or DWG) and apply structural members properties directly.
Create rotatable full 3D image of structural arrangement with material assignment and take off details.
Prepare wall bracing layout plans with tie-down requirements (CADEbrace). Wall layouts with bracing and tie-down is able to be printed for distribution to fabricators & builders.
Calculate wind loads on structures (CADEwind)
Design pad & pier footings with/without lateral (over turning) loads. (CADEfoot)

Document creation, audit tracking & security

Create legible and consistent documentation.
Create, edit and maintain user forms for personalised printouts
Allows for full analysis and design audit tracking. (Engineer’s credentials and dates created and edited saved with each mark added/amended)
USB Hard lock protection for greater security and user flexibility. (Network licenses available)

CADE 3D Viewer - Enables clients to view 3D model of projects created using CADEdraft &/or CADEbrace

Why Full install is on local hardware (USB hardware lock required)?

· No web connection required after installation & registration. i.e., current installed version will continue to operate indefinitely.

· Automatic download and installation of updates. (Requires internet connection or physical CD/DVD/USB drive – with support contract)

· Able to be run and maintained independently of other users.

· Able to access previous builds of software (from user maintained archives)

· Not limited to default material properties list as material lists are maintained on your system (either locally or network accessible)

· Software license is locked to designated computer for the duration of a valid support contract.

· Requires internet connection to suspend/activate or transfer licences to alternate computers.

· Negates need for USB hard lock access (overcomes issues relating to USB ports being disabled by IT management or other Virus protection software)
