ShapeBook with 2D3DSteel 3.10
ShapeBook with 2D3DSteel - ShapeBook with 2D3DSteel is a quick reference and parametric AutoCAD drafting application for
structural steel design and detailing. ShapeBook is based on the AISC Manual of Steel Construction
LRFD, 3rd Edition.
Structural steel shapes are available in US imperial and metric
units. The dynamic user interface provides fast shape selection. Shape lists can be saved to a
file, and the current list and shape selection can be automatically saved when you exit and then
automatically restored the next time you run ShapeBook.
Your shape list and the
currently selected shape are automatically converted to metric, or US Imperial, whenever the units
mode is changed. You can search and select shapes using up to three different search keys, each
with a separate property with minimum and maximum values.
You can use the weight and
surface area calculator on the selected shape to calculate total weight and surface area. All you
provide is the quantity and length. 2D3DSteel 2.1 is an AutoCAD VLX application that draws steel
shapes in AutoCAD 2000 through 2005. Any of the shapes available in ShapeBook can be quickly added,
in 2D or 3D, to your AutoCAD drawings.
ShapeBook with 2D3DSteel is a time locked 30 day
free trial. All of the program features are available during the trial period. After 30 days you
will need to purchase a registration key to continue using the program.The detailing dimensions and
design properties are displayed in ShapeBook's corresponding display tabs on the main dialog
box.
ShapeBook uses AISC criteria for determining the approximate detailing dimensions
in fractional inches. The design properties are shown in decimal. The individual dimensions and
properties can be copied into the clipboard and then pasted into another application.
Tooltips provide helpful descriptions of all the dimensions and properties. ShapeBook provides
hard copy output to your printer, all on one sheet including a diagram.
