Selecting sections of the beams when importing the BIM model
In version 2022.c, importing beams from the BIM model has been improved for selecting different types of materials and sections.
In the "Beam" stage of the BIM model import assistant, a list with the detected beams is displayed. In the "Cross-section" column, the assigned cross-section is indicated. By clicking on each cell, the beam section selection panel can be accessed.
The program automatically assigns the rectangular and circular concrete sections. For each one of the remaining sections, the corresponding CYPECAD section must be assigned. The assignment is automatically saved for subsequent imports.

Implementing Spanish code "Código Estructural"
Spanish code "Código Estructural (Real Decreto 470/2021)" has been implemented for analysing and designing concrete structures in CYPECAD, CYPE 3D, Reinforced concrete cantilever walls and Embedded retaining walls.

Other improvements and corrections
CYPECAD version 2022.b includes other minor improvements and corrections of the program that may occur in rare situations:
- The process for importing beams from a BIM project has been improved, in order to correctly detect the sections of the beams exported from programs such as ArchiCAD. We continue working to make this functionality similar to that of the columns.
- Errors such as: "Expression: desplRotulos->portico[p].numTramos > 0" that could occur after carrying out a number of operations (joining, dividing, etc.) in beam frames have been fixed.
- An error that could occur when adding loads to "Situation 2" of wall soil pressures has been fixed.

Direct link to CYPECAD from CYPE Architecture
A direct connection with CYPECAD has been added to the BIMserver.center section of the CYPE Architecture program. When using this feature, CYPE Architecture automatically exports the project to BIMserver.center and directly opens the program and the project in CYPECAD, speeding up the connection between the two programs considerably.

Clip volume

As of version 2022.b, applications with 3D drawing surroundings allow a viewing volume to be defined from the geometric envelope of the scene content. The arrows allow the viewing volume to be adjusted by moving their faces and the arches allow the viewing volume to be adjusted by means of 6 clips planes.
