Description

Construction (Timber Frame) is one of the two modules that DDS-CAD Architect & Construction consist of. The other module is the Architect module. Joist Module The working sheet is the plan drawing, produced with the Architect module or imported from other CAD systems via DXF/DWG. The user works with this drawing in simple dialogue to construct the joists. The drawings are produced automatically. The user may interactively adjust the beams according to the requirements of the construction i.e. to extend or to shorten the tie beam beside stairs and chimneys, as well as change the dimensions of the beams. Functions for strengthening the beams, for instance with fish-plates and module joists, are available in the program. The user may choose special details for each end of the joist. In the cutting list all important information is stored for each joist: Type, cross section area, length, cutting angle, detail reference, joist number, and number of joists. The cutting list may be printed out or inserted directly into the drawing. The joists may at any time be displayed in 3D. Wall panel module The wall module works mainly automatically with reference to the 3D model from the Architect module. As an alternative, DDS provide a modern interface via. IFC/IAI when data is to be read from other CAD systems. The user defines in a simplified plan drawing the walls, which will be connected, to each other. The program automatically inserts the selected number of studs at the wall connection. In the same way reinforcement for supports, beams and roof trusses will be handled. The user defines in a special wall menu a selection of construction for corners, windows and doors.
