Infrastructure investments in the whole world |
|
|
|
|
|
Nearly all world leaders are taking identical decisions based on the Keynes theory: governments must give priority to public investments in infrastructure works. The announced figures seem impressive: USA 800 billion US$ (7% of GNP), China 427 billion € (16% of GNP for 2009-2010), European Union 200 billion € (1,5% of GNP). Figures by RREEF Research (Deutsche Bank) indicate that the total value of infrastructure in the world today is around 20.500 billion $; this shows that the extra announced investments practically double the normal annual investments (corresponding with 5% or 1.000 billion $ depreciation).
The word “infrastructure” is interpreted in different ways: in the USA it concerns renovation of bridges, roads, public buildings and a new ICT backbone. In Europe it concerns primary ... more

New representative office in Brazil and a new sales Partner in Greece |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Nemetschek Scia has opened on 1st March ‘09 a representative office in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
The Scia responsible business manager José Teixeira comments: “Brazil is one of the strongest emerging markets in the world; on the long-term Brazil has many interesting assets: it is an energy supplier in the region (gas, oil, alternative energy), the industrialisation of the country is ongoing, it is attractive for property investments and others”.
The current economical crisis is – like everywhere – a temporary restraint yet also a challenge to overcome.
Scia is focusing on dedicated market segments, introducing its high-end structural BIM design and fabrication software.
Through its office, Scia will give support to its client base and set up its business through partners and direct sales.
Also last month Nemetschek Scia welcomed a new sales partner in the Greek market. Mr.Theodoris Tsirozidis from the company TechScience will be representing Scia locally and we wish him a lot of success in business. (www.techscience.gr)

Nemetschek Scia introduces Scia Steel 2009 |

|
|
|
|
|

On the 26th March 2009, Scia Steel 2009 (version 10.0) will be released.
This new version offers, besides some new modules, also a series of general innovations,
see e.g. the eye-catching user interface for tables (image 1)
With regard to the new modules, CIM-List offers the module 'shipments' with a considerable amount of new functionalities such as: (image 2)
- Multi-project shipments
- Planned and current shipments. The purpose of these two systems is to be able to make a comparison between desired situation and the current situation.
- Within shipments it is possible to work with packages. A package is a selection of assembled positions within one project.
- A shipment (a planned as well as a current one) can include positions, connection material, packages and miscellanea
- Integration with the production: assemblies have to be finished before they can be taken up in a package.
- To a shipment can be assigned a ... more

'Free Form Modeller' in Scia Engineer |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Thanks to the “Free Form Modeller” tool, it is possible to create in Scia Engineer almost any arbitrary form as a general solid (3D shape), and to adapt it afterwards.
More specifically there are two possibilities for the creation of general solids:
- Import from DWG, DXF, IFC and VRML files. In this case no supplementary license is needed.
- Entire modelling in Scia Engineer. The ‘basic’ module for this functionality is esa.27, by which basic solids can be created by extrusion or rotation of defined shapes. As extension you need module esa.24, which makes Free Form Modelling possible. The options for the input of solids can be found in the Structure menu, section Modelling/Drawing (image 1).
After the basic solids have been created, they can be adapted further on by means of 3D Boolean operations such as addition, subtraction, intersection and division of solids. These options can be found in the Structure menu, section Transfer/Break/Unify.
To be able to take the general solids into account for calculation, they need to be ... more |
