The Positioning tool is now available on both the Steel and Concrete ribbons ( Steel | Concrete > Drawing Production | Data/Reporting > Numbering)
ProSteel
NC DSTV improvements
- Generate NC for unfolded flanged plates with single bend.
- Concentric holes are intercepted and reported in the log file for BO (holes) blocks.
- Inner contour calculations for complicated circular inner cuts.
- Refined M profile edge preparation .
- Higher precision calculation for saw length of shapes.
DetailCenter improvements
- Fractional dimensions now can be optionally controlled from MicroStation styles or from within the DetailStyle
- new fraction style option is added to ProSteel place label command.
- Revision Center is now quickly accessible via the ribbon (Steel > Drawing Production > Detailing). Previously accessible only from Detail Center.
- The Drawing Verification feature now generates two reports in the form of the OriginInsertionStructure.txt and VerifiedInsertionStructure.txt log files for all workshop drawings linked drawings in model.
New connections
- Stiffener Distribution tool is introduced as a Technology Preview. Used for creating multiple stiffeners and placing them distributed along a steel shape.
- Cross Bolting tool is introduced as a Technology Preview. Used for creating cross bolting connections between shapes and plates
External Partlist
- The need to detect part differences before generating external partlist databases can now be achieved via Position Number Checks introduced in the Partlist Creation workflow. Equal Part Settings along with the Edit Compare Criteria button allow you to manage the checking of component parts. Desired criteria selection and comparison methods are set in the Positionflags and Positioning Rules dialog.
ProConcrete
Associative Slice
- A new Associative Slice tool is introduced as a Technology Preview. Used for creating associative cross-section slices on a given solid along a path. This functionality further aids detailers when reinforcing complex shapes, especially solids that are extruded on arcs and curves.
Improved Irregular Dispatch Reinforcing
Previously, the use of Irregular Dispatch Reinforcement on Associative Intersections, on some occasions, yielded distorted bars which had to be manually corrected by reversing guidelines. The enhanced workflow now takes care of guideline direction, modeling correct geometry for bars, and restricts reversing guideline directions only to create crossed bars. It is no longer required to reverse bars because of bar crossing.
Additionally, bars with reversed guidelines are now marked to be visually distinguishable, and can be toggled, when required to generate normal bars.
Improved Lapped Bars Detailing
Previously, lapped range bars were detailed as a whole run and had one delimiter. Newly added variable called DOLG can be found in display.sys file which controls the detailing behaviours of such bars.If detailing lapped range bars as whole run with one delimiter is required DOLG = 0 has to be used. If each bar range requires a separate delimiter, set DOLG = 1
Letter Appended Bar Marks for Vary Set Bars
Abillity to add Letter Appended Barmarks has now included in Options Tab in all reinfocement tools that have Vary Sets capabilities. Because of that, it is now possible to have bars in one Vary Set labeled as i.e. 11a, 11b, 11c and so on.
Item Type Properties in Rebar Labels
Item Types with Custom, User Properties can be added to Concrete and Reinforcement elements. Those properites cane be then included in Rebar Labels using following code structure:









About ProStructures CONNECT Edition. ProStructures CONNECT Edition is a (BIM) software comprising of ProSteel and ProConcrete, it allows structural engineers, designers, detailers, and fabricators to efficiently create accurate 3D models for structural steel and reinforced concrete structures. ProStructures integrated tools provides fast creation of design drawings, fabrication details, and schedules, with automatic updates whenever the 3D model is changed.
