New module for designing lightweight slabs in CYPECAD

With the "Lightweight slabs" module, CYPECAD analyses and designs lightweight slab floors, made up of two different zones: lightened and infilled. Lightweight slabs are selected from the manufacturer's catalogues integrated in the program, which are available via the "Open BIM Database". The slab edge must be large enough to hold the lightweight element, and the program offers the option of displaying only those that are compatible with the slab edge. A new section, "Lightweight slabs", has been added to the "Slabs" menu, which includes all the specific functions for this type of slab, such as "Enter lightweight slabs", "Generate lightweight elements" or "Generate solid zones", among others.
