Corporate News: Nemetschek Scia launches eLearning for Scia Engineer |
|
|
|
|
|
To use a professional software program a minimum of investment in training is required. Even if the user-interface is as much as possible self-explanatory, the availability of teaching tools helps reducing the learning time.
For Scia Engineer there are a number of tools at
one’s disposal: tutorials, manuals, movies, online forum, FAQ’s and of course a direct help desk. Yet we wanted to lower further the entry barrier. As of today Scia is launching a new interactive eLearning tool through which distant learning of the basic functions of Scia Engineer becomes reality. The new application explains interactively how an engineer will enter a structural model, how the boundary conditions and the loadings are entered, and how to generate finite element meshes. It also explains the access to design modules for steel & concrete sections. And the handling of the software is explained until the ... more |

Product News: Nemetschek goes Eco - Green buildings reduce costs |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In the second half of last year, the financial world got into trouble. As regards the building world, 2008 has still been a good year, but 2009 will tell a whole different tale. ‘Economizing’ will be the topic for this year.
The solution is reducing expenses. From the draft on, design teams will have to think of a well-considered project in order to keep the costs to a minimum. Another trend is the design of ‘green’ buildings.
There is a sustained effort to come to energy-neutral buildings (minimal energy consumption or even energy generation).
Nemetschek wants to do pioneering work in this field. At the end of 2008, they already started up cooperation with 5S AG (specialized in Energy-Efficiency). Together they are ... more |

Construction sites in France linked to 'Grenelle de l’Environnement' are estimated to amount at 440 billion in eleven years |

October 2007 was organized in France the ‘Grenelle Environnement’. It is an open multi-party debate in France that reunites representatives of national and local government and organizations on an equal footing, with the goal of unifying a position on environmental issues and sustainable development. Representatives of the government, industry, professional associations and NGO’s were invited.
The process of concretizing the conclusions of these meetings is still ongoing, nevertheless a first series of legislative measures for the period 2009-2020 has already been voted.
Besides the ‘classic’ measures, e.g. the improvement of the thermal performances of buildings, a range of innovating measurements appear: an adaptation of the ... more

Travhydro – Scaffolding of a complete freestanding 3D frame in Rotterdam (NL) |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Scia Engineer Scaffolding, the application for modelling, analysis and dimensioning of scaffold constructions, is already in use by quite a lot of members of the Dutch VSB for a large variety of projects.
For several years now, the Travhydro branches of the Netherlands and Belgium adopt Scia software. Different large projects – under which the scaffolding for the renovation of the Oosterweelbrug in Antwerp – are realized with it.
Commissioned by Tak Vormgeving, Travhydro Nederland BV (the Dutch branch office) erected an entirely freestanding 3D frame on the Schouwburgplein of Rotterdam; on this frame was secured a large canvas of15 x 13 m. The construction is completely shored up over the 3 axes.
The construction has been completely analysed according to EC3 scheme 3b, with wind pressures in conformity with AND 12-811 and NEN 6702. All codes and factors were adapted in conformity with the scaffolding-guideline of the VSB.
The project was modelled within Scia Engineer Scaffolding and presented for controlling to the City Council of Rotterdam.
As the engineer office uses ... more |

Tips & Tricks: Scia Engineer "Results Document" with 3D PDF pictures |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Are you looking for a possibility to present to your clients a 3D document of their project, instead of merely tables with results and overview drawings? As from version Scia Engineer 2008.0 functionality has been added to the document which answers to this need: the possibility to export 3D pictures from Scia Engineer to an Adobe PDF file.
The functionality is available as a part of the module esa.06 (Productivity toolbox), and the routine is as follows:
- When sending a picture to the document, directly from the working area or from the picture gallery, the property “3D image in PDF” has to be selected. (image 1)
- When after the compounding of the document the settings for the export are chosen, it is necessary to select ... more
