Bill of Material
|
|
|
Summarize and produce the bill of materials used in the structural analysis model by element types, material types and section shapes of all the elements (line, planar and solid elements). Bill of Materials calculates the quantities of materials during the initial estimation or design stage. It can be effectively used during the Optimum Design stage, once the structural design is completed and the member weights become known.
- Produce bill of materials by material properties / section property numbers - Auto-calculate the length, painting area, weight and volume of members - Classify rolled sections and built-up sections for steel members - Auto-calculate the weights and areas by thicknesses of steel plates for built-up sections - Calculate the volume of concrete for concrete members - Provide weight summary sheets for the entire model for each element shape of each material type - Provide a summary for the weight of the entire model
Beam - Truss Element BOM type1: Classify line elements per property number, section ID and material property Beam - Truss Element BOM type2: Classify line elements per section ID and material property Beam - Truss Element BOM type3: Classify line elements per section ID only Built - up Plate BOM type1: Classify steel plates constituting built-up line elements per thickness and material property Built - up Plate BOM type2: Classify steel plates constituting built-up line elements per thickness only Plate type Element BOM: Classify planar elements per thickness and material property Solid Element BOM: Classify solid elements per material property BOM by Material: Summarize the total quantities per material property |
