Strucad distributed by Acecad Software (Australia) is a provider of structural supply chain solutions for steel building structures. Note load freeware to enable opening and operation of the 3D model below.
This interactive 3D model is available for download. It is a medium size file and so may take a few moments to save. It comprises a religious community building and walkways.
Fabrication Drawing of roof rafter detail obtained from the 3D model
General assembly drawing of a tower in a religious community building showing output available from the 3D model
General arrangement drawing of roof and walkways from 3D model
This output of the 3D model is a listing of materials. In this case by identifier to be stamped on each part. The 3D model can produce grouped bill of materials.
This drawing of an indivdual part for fabrication is available as a hard copy or a soft copy. The 3D model can produce computer files suitable for use in CNC machines in fabrication to automically produce and stamp the correct part without having to redraw or manually key in coordinates. This improves efficiency in fabrication, increasing speed reliability and decreasing cost.
