The SOFiCAD Detailing is the ideal tool for designers and
draftsmen, allowing the fast creation of formwork and shop
drawings.
SOFiCAD Reinforcement is the modern drawing tool used to
generate reinforcement drawings with AutoCAD.
The modular software of the SOFiSTiK AG supports the entire
planning process, starting with the architect‘s plans, from
which the structural analysis is made, up to the constructive
reinforcement for civil engineering.
BAMTEC uses individual reinforcement carpets for concrete
slabs instead of conventional reinforcement with meshes. These
carpets consist of uniaxial straight rebars welt with
transverse strips. Due to the fact that the carpets are
produced individually for any plan and structural analysis,
excess material is almost reduced to zero. Up to 40% of
material can be saved in comparison to conventional
reinforcement mats. After the carpet geometries were
determined in the engineering office, SOFiCAD (optional on the
basis of a preceding Finite- Element analysis, e.g.
SlabDesigner) is used to automatically generate the
inspection-, manufacturing- and rollout-plans. Simultaneously
to this process the machine control files are generated. The
entire process chain for slab design and production is covered
by the programs SlabDesigner, SOFiCAD-reinforcement and
BAMTEC. This will result in much more economical planning and
construction.
The SOFiCAD-Alignment module allows the planning of highway
structures according to alignments. An arbitrary number of
alignments, including their axes, gradients and cross-falls,
can be imported or exactly re-drawn. These alignments are then
taken as the basis for the further planning process.
The steel detailing module SOFiCAD-S is an optimal supplement
for engineers to generate overview and shop drawings in steel
detailing. SOFiCAD-S allows generating any current steel
profile and user defined profiles in section or any oblique
view. Screws can be drawn in the sectional, the elevated and
the plan view.
