Andrés von Breyman from SOFiSTiK announced the release of SOFiSTiK´s new components for bridges.
Based on alignment, cross-section information, axis variables, and placements, you can now create 3D parametric models that include realistic 3D geometry and a 100% user-controlled analytical model.
Use this tool as a pre-processor for Bridge Information Modelling and refined Finite Element Analysis.
The SOFiSTiK Grasshopper Toolkit is an extension to Grasshopper. Convert elements like points, curves, or surfaces into structural points, and surfaces. The elements can be attributed with analytical properties like material, cross-section, boundary conditions, or loads. This data can then be directly streamed into a SOFiSTiK project for further analysis and design of the structure.
