Information:
Construction software maker SOFiSTiK is pleased to announce the availability of SOFiCAD 2020 SP 2020-2 is a modular system that complements AutoCAD to functions for structural engineering.
AQB
Features
For the longitudinal torsional reinforcements the maximum values of the layer definitions are now accounted for. See CTRL REIN FIXT for more options.
AQUA
Features
Buckling clamping in thick-walled cross sections (c/t-points via stress points SPT) were revised. Now the calculated fixities are similar to the thin-walled elements.
Bugfixes
Sometimes single reinforcements were deleted if there were line reinforcements at the same time. (166368)
Sometimes the cross section values of circles were wrong. (167067)
Adapting tolerance of S-value for interpolation along an axis. (163746)
Sometimes the shear design values of thick-walled composite sections were wrong. (167192)
Sometimes the reading and the interpolation of profiles was wrong. (166791)
The normal force of the prestressing had not included the parts of reinforcements during a fire design.
Other Issues
Polygon points with radius now always create tangential points. This provides better referencing (cross-section interpolation) and editing in the cross-section editor. In addition, the defined radius is not lost during export anymore. Therefore, the value ‘PHI’ is obsolete. It is no longer used. Now the orientation of the arc is controlled only by the sign of the radius ‘R’ (not for ‘PHI’). (161683,162363)
ASE
Bugfixes
Incremental launching: program crash corrected in case of manual defined excentic beams with BEAM-EZY (165788)

Correction for determining eigenvalue analysis dependent values.
Correction for the summary of the results.
Other Issues
Revision of the printout of the design code.

BEMESS
Bugfixes
Punching: on searching the maximum of multipe design runs LCRI, runs with punching failure were not taken into account correctly – improved. (165898)
Punching Norway: on input PUNC ro_v or necessary ro_v>0.50 the program did not switch to punching with stirrups – corrected. (166507)
LCRI maximum of multipe design runs: if the first LCRI did not contain shear reinforcement, for the created LCR a possible shear reinforcement could also not be Descriptionted – corrected. (165936)
Increase of reinforcement due to concrete stress check NSTR CHKC corrected (did not run any longer). (166510)
Other Issues
Missing nodal results: in case one design loadcase does not contain nodal results, now no nodal design is done and old reinforcement results are deleted for this design distribution.
Stress range tendons: warning added in case the stress range is higher than required.
CSM Design: Fatigue check concrete was not started – corrected.
Multilayer reinforcement: do not design elements with reinforcement diameter = 0
CSM
Bugfixes
CSM optimisation: on usage for North America the opimisation file was written with P Prestress instead of PS – corrected. (166395)
Other Issues
CSM Design: Fatigue quad elements: stress range can now be input with DESI FAT PAR2 und PAR3
CSM Design: Group selection for the design allowed with new input GRPD.
CSM Design MAXIMA: Default for CTRL MAXI set to 1 for Norway (superposition according equation 6.10a and b).
CSM Design AQB NSTR: analysis of eigenstresses in the reinforcement: control corrected with CTRL STEU EIGE +64
DECREATOR
Features
Arbitrary Beam Element Selection: Beam finite elements not components of reference geometry (i.e. Structural Line or Beam Sequences) or that lie freely in space can now be selected and integrated. This can be controlled using the options BOX, SEC and/or GRP of the selection command DSEL.
Geometry with kinks: The geometry of a design element can now be formed out of a sequence of structural or beam elements possibly connected with sharp joints or corners having a deflection angle of more than 10°. (166046)
Geometry from Axes: Creation of design elements based on primary or secondary axis is possible with the option DGEO AXIS.
Print out: Detailed information about the type and geometry of intersected finite elements at a section can now tabulated in the report file.
Bugfixes
Force calculation based on two similar user-given interpolated cross sections (via DSLN … NCS … NCS2) are now corrected. (166827)

Features
Viewing of the running modules improved.SOFiCAD is a modular system that complements AutoCAD to functions for structural engineering. Because of the integration the way of working is obtained. All AutoCAD functions can be used together with SOFiCAD.
On AutoCAD you can solve with the various modules of SOFiCAD diverse design tasks. All modules can be arbitrarily combined and deploy within an AutoCAD session.
This video briefly shows the main advantages of the SOFiCAD reinforcement software. From the simple creation of a rebar shape, to the worflow importing formwork plans from Revit.SOFiSTiK is Europe’s leading software developer for analysis, design and detailing of building and infrastructure projects worldwide. Today, employing more than 70 people, we are one of the leading software developers for Finite Element Software in the construction industry, as well as for integrated detailing software based on Autodesk AutoCAD and Revit.
