SteelCON 2008.8

SteelCON is a practical steel‑connection design and checking tool for structural engineers. It helps you model bolted and welded joints, verify capacity under realistic load cases, and produce clear calculation reports and drawings. With parametric templates, a built‑in library of sections, plates, bolts, and welds, plus 3D visual feedback, SteelCON streamlines connection detailing from concept through documentation.

Key features:

• Handles common connection types: beam‑to‑column, end‑plate, base plate, splice, gusset, and bracing
• Fast calculation engine with live feedback and warnings for overstressed components
• Parametric templates and reusable presets to speed up iteration
• Customizable materials and fasteners libraries
• 3D visualization of geometry and demand/capacity indicators
• Automatic checks against relevant design criteria with transparent assumptions
• Professional reports and drawing exports (PDF, DXF) for review and fabrication

Whether you’re comparing alternatives during early design or finalizing shop drawings, SteelCON keeps your workflow fast, consistent, and easy to audit.
