As of version 2025.d of CYPE Connect, the import wizard incorporates a new step that selects the bars to be imported according to the assigned tags. This option is available exclusively for models created in CYPE 3D.

It is now possible to select the type of steel for bolt layout checks. This feature is available when using the Eurocode, its national annexes or the Spanish structural code "Código Estructural" as the steel standard.

Up until version 2025.d, when the Eurocode, its national annexes or the Spanish structural code "Código Estructural" were selected as the steel standard, the separation between the axis of a bolt and the plate edges of all bolts in an operation was verified. However, from this version onwards, this verification shall not be carried out […]

As of version 2025.d, the representation colours of the different elements are configurable. This customisation is carried out from the "Project > Settings" menu, where the colours can be edited according to the user's preferences. This feature is made even more relevant by the new tools, incorporated in this version, to include images in the […]

As of version 2025.d, the contour plot result views include a new option to show or hide the finite element mesh.

Up until version 2025.d, the shear check of the bolts was carried out considering the worst-case scenario: the shear plane passing through the threaded zone of the thread. As of version 2025.d, depending on the plates to be joined and the length of the shear plane, the program evaluates whether the cutting plane is on […]

In version 2025.d, the import of the nodes defined in the structural model has been implemented. This task can be carried out in the import of structures from CYPE 3D, ETABS® or SAP 2000®. A node will be created with the same reference as the node in the structural model and with the same bars. […]

As of version 2025.d, a small diagram with the layout of the bolts for each operation will be included in the section on the definition of the bolts in the summary report.

The index drawing of each bolt, anchor or timber fastener has been implemented in the 3D view of the connection. The options to show or hide these indices are enabled under "View options".

In version 2025.d, a tool has been implemented to define the loads applied to each bar based on the mechanical properties of its section. In the load edition panel, on the force table for each bar, the wizard for modifying the forces of the selected load case appears. This tool changes the table value of […]

Up until version 2025.d, any modification to the operations resulted in the loss of the results of the finite element model, even when these changes didn't affect the analytical model. However, as of version 2025.d, the results will be retained as long as the modifications do not alter the analytical model, with only the necessary […]

As of version 2025.d, connection reports can include images of the connections. In the "Model" and "Analysis" tabs, the "Images" section has been added to the toolbar ribbon. This section offers a tool for snapping images, as well as a library for managing them. By clicking on "Snap image", a snap of the 3D view […]
