Direct opening of projects with predetermined apps
As of version 2026.b, project files are automatically associated with the corresponding CYPE app in the Windows environment. This means that you simply double-click on the file to open it directly in the appropriate program, without having to select it manually. This improvement streamlines the workflow and provides a smoother and more efficient user experience.

Prequalified connections in CYPE Connect and StruBIM Steel
As of version 2026.a, prequalified connections can be used and checked when designing connections in CYPE Connect and StruBIM Steel with the codes that enable the option.
Prequalified connections are required in structures where the seismic-resisting system consists of moment frames, particularly in the case of special moment frames (SMF) or intermediate moment frames (IMF), in accordance with AISC 341.

New features and improvements in StruBIM Steel and CYPE Connect
In version 2026.a, new features and improvements have been implemented in StruBIM Steel and CYPE Connect, including the ability to define extended holes, draw bolt forces and bar loads in contour plot views, and select the dimension to be tagged in fillet welds. In addition, performance improvements have been implemented to optimise the speed and smoothness of use, as well as a new warning for poorly defined welds. Finally, operations can now be selected when exporting welds to a library.
