Steel Beams for AEC

This module provides an easy way to create steel beams, tags, and beam schedule, using AutoCAD Architecture (ACA) or MEP, versions 2010 through 2014. Arched beam, sloped beams, and extensions are easily created. Hips and Valleys can be created using a special input dialog to handle the calculation involved. The beams created are actual ACA Structural Member objects, and standard ACA technology is used as the foundation for the tags and schedule as well, but with much enhancement.

This module provides an easy way to create wood beams, joists, rafters, plates, hips and valleys, along with tags and beam schedule, using AutoCAD Architecture (ACA) or MEP, versions 2010 through 2016. This module provides not only the members, but also the MVBlock (tag), Property Set Definition, Schedule table style, and Display Configurations. Hips and Valleys can be easily created using a special input dialog to handle the calculation involved.

All standard U.S. member types are provided, including lumber, I-Joists, LVL, PSL, and GLB members. The members created are actual ACA Structural Member objects, and standard ACA technology is used as the foundation for the tags and schedule as well, but with much enhancement.

his add-on utility package is for use with plain AutoCAD (or Vertical application other than Architecture or MEP), version R2000 - R2016. It includes most features included in the AEC version, except for those that are specific to AEC. Some features, such as Auto-Layering, have been tailored for non-AEC use. This version also include some tools not found in the AEC version, such as Dimension tolerance tools.

The KCS Productivity Pack is now a free utility, which may be authorized upon purchasing. All features are included whether authorized or not.
