StruBIM Deep Beams

General improvements

Version 2021.g of CYPE’s programs is a closing version of the 2021 version.

As well as the new features and improvements expressly indicated in each version of CYPE software, process optimisation involving internal updates for all our programs is normally included. In each revision, all programs are systematically checked and changes are made to improve their performance, therefore, we recommend that our users (in this case those of v.2021) always update their version to the latest one, regardless of the country for which they are using CYPE software or the language in which it is installed.

64-bit Version

As of the 2019.f version, CYPE programs (those downloaded from our website and those downloaded from the BIMserver.center platform) are compiled for 64-bit systems. The 64-bit compilation of CYPE software implies the use of the superior features of 64-bit processors and operating systems compared to those of 32 bits.

Please bear in mind that you must have a 64-bit operating system to be able to work with any 64-bit software.

In any case and as a temporary measure, the 2019.f version is available in 64 and 32 bits on the download area of our webpage. The programs that can be downloaded from the BIMserver.center platform are only available in 64 bits. If you have a 64-bit operating system, you can work with either the 64-bit and 32-bit version of our software, although we strongly recommend that you install the 64-bit CYPE software version.

You can see which operating system is installed on your computer by clicking on "Control panel > System".

Since 64-bit microprocessors began to be massively introduced into personal computers from 2003 and from the Windows XP version, Microsoft already offers the two versions of its operating systems (32 and 64 bits). We understand that almost all our users will have computers with 64-bit processors (x64) and 64-bit operating systems.

It could occur that a user may wish to work with a computer with a 64-bit processor but with a 32-bit operating system. It would be very strange if the computer had a 32-bit processor (x86 - computers over 15 years old). If any of these is your case, we advise you to talk to your hardware or software provider to update your situation as soon as possible. However, you can download the 32-bit version and work with CYPE programs that can be downloaded from our website until your situation is up-to-date.

Code implementation. NTC: 2017 (Mexico City)

Implemented in CYPECADCYPE 3D and StruBIM Deep Beams.

Program downloads on the BIMserver.center platform

The following CYPE programs can be downloaded from the BIMserver.center platform:

  • CYPETHERM Improvements
    This program is also available in the general CYPE program menu, which is installed using the file that is available in the Download Area of the CYPE website.

    Please bear in mind that the version of CYPETHERM Improvements that is downloaded from the BIMserver.center is integrated in the “Open BIM” workflow, as is indicated in the new features of CYPETHERM Improvements of the 2018.g version of this webpage. However, the version of CYPETHERM Improvements that is downloaded from the Download Area of the CYPE website is not. For more information, please consult the new features section of the 2018.g version of CYPETHERM Improvements.
  • StruBIM Deep Beams
    This program is only available on the BIMserver.center platform.

StruBIM Deep Beams (new program)

StruBIM Deep Beams is a tool for the design of deep beams. This application is integrated in the Open BIM workflow using the IFC standard.

  • Import from the BIM model
    Users can import beams with this applications by using an assistant with which they can filter which beams are to be imported by applying a depth/length ratio criteria.

    StruBIM Deep Beams imports the geometry of the beams that meet the depth/length ratio that has been indicated by users from the IFC file. The IFC file containing the geometric information of the beams can be generated by Revit or by CYPECAD.
  • Updating process
    If the IFC file is imported again, new beams can imported. Previously imported beams can be modified and beams that are no longer in the BIM model can be eliminated.
  • Export
    StruBIM Deep Beams allows users to export the reinforcement of the beams that have been designed to the BIM model by generating an IFC file. Furthermore, the design reports and drawings, in “PDF” and “DXF” formats respectively, can be exported as attached documents of the BIM model.

StruBIM Deep Beams can only be downloaded from the BIMserver.center platform.
