Advance Steel is a leading edge steel construction application designed for steel professionals. It provides a simple, user-friendly working environment for creating 3D structural models from which drawings are created. You create and store the 3D model in a DWG drawing format. The Advance Steel model forms the basis of the 3D construction. Use Advance Steel structural elements (such as portal frames or stairways) to build complex structures with all the required features and connections. The Advance Steel model becomes the master reference for other tools: Automatically create dimensioned and labeled general arrangement and shop drawings. Manage the general arrangement and shop drawings with the Advance Steel Document Manager. The update tool in the Document Manager makes single-click drawing adjustments possible after model changes. Create structured Bills of Materials (BOMs) and NC-information files from the model and include all model information, such as part marks and quantities.
