Optimize development cost for complex structural assemblies by easy evaluation of alternative “What If” design scenarios and managing smooth transition from basic to detail design
3DEXPERIENCE CATIA Frame Structure Designer role allows to optimize the Engineering and Design of complex structural assemblies, by easy evaluation of alternative "What If" design scenarios and managing smooth transition from basic to detailed design, and drawing creation for fabrication.
Structure Design Applications allow to design any kind of Structure assemblies such as Main Steel structure, pipe racks, Equipment supports or secondary structures for human access and maintenance.
They enable a productive full parametric design , with various construction elements and full integration with simulation tools.
It will allow to perform early study of alternate designs with associated cost estimations .
Later the preliminary design can be reused to generate quickly detailed design automatically
Structure design applications will use standard catalogs of material and profiles to quickly define and arrange structure members like columns, beams, braces and plates. An easy to use user interface, associated to a powerful copy paste functionality allows to increase the designers productivity.
Structure Design application give you the possibility to generate fast and easily detailed design from this preliminary design or to start directly from scratch with detailed design without going through functional design approach.
The application enables to enrich the 3D Digital Mockup with more precise and accurate detailed design with tight and seamless integration with Manufacturing. Standardized end cut or cut out profiles can be quickly instantiated and automatically adjusted based on member profile and internal assembly rules
The application supports also natively BIM modeling standard with automatic computation of corresponding attributes like length , surface, volume, weight and others
Design time equals money, so why spend hours producing manufacturing document manually when you can do it automatically and massively with minimum manual rework with certified templates ? The Frame Structure Designer Role is providing all necessary tools to Automate the generation of various kind of drawing and reports based on company templates and rules,
Like for primary structure, secondary structures like hand rails, ladders, stairs …. can be created quickly. Company knowledge and engineering expertise can be capture to drive 3D design with customizable rules & templates that enable objects to interact in an intelligent and automated manner. Users will place them quickly in context of the 3D environment and adjust template entries accordingly. This will leave more time to the designer for new ideas of iterations rather than repetitive tasks
