As of version 2024.e, CYPE Connect and StruBIM Steel can also be installed in Chinese and Turkish. These two applications can now be installed in the following languages:
In StruBIM Steel version 2024.e, a tool for flipping sections about their longitudinal axis has been implemented.
In version 2024.e, a new tool has been implemented that allows users to move sections until one of their faces is level with the face of another element.
First of all, the sections to be moved are selected by clicking the left mouse button on the reference face, and the right mouse button is used to finish the selection.
Next, users must select the parallel face of another element with the left mouse button, to which the selected sections will be levelled.
As of version 2024.e, elements with a wire drawing mode will show only the visible lines, hiding the lines that would be hidden if the model were drawn solid.
AIJ Design Standard for Steel Structures (Based on Allowable Stress Concept)
Implemented in CYPE Connect and StruBIM Steel for checking bolted and welded steel connections.
Canadian Standards Association. S16-09 Design of steel structures.
Implemented in CYPE Connect and StruBIM Steel for checking bolted and welded steel connections.
Version 2024.e implements the export of the rotational stiffnesses of the connections in CYPE Connect and StruBIM Steel. The import of rotational stiffnesses is also implemented in CYPE 3D.
This improvement allows the rotational stiffness of connections analysed in CYPE Connect or StruBIM Steel to be considered in the original CYPE 3D structure.
The export occurs when there are connections with analysed rotational stiffness and is exported to BIMserver.center.
In CYPE 3D, the corresponding contribution must be imported from the menu "BIMserver.center > Consult", activating the "Update the rotational stiffness of the element ends" option.
In version 2024.e of CYPE Connect and StruBIM Steel, the panel where the parameters are entered when creating the supplementary reinforcements associated with anchors has been improved. New options have been added to simplify the panel, also, graphic aids with texts have been implemented to help users understand the available options in greater detail.
CYPE apps have keyboard shortcuts common to all programs. In versions before 2024.e, each program displayed the keyboard shortcuts for each app via the "Search and activation of commands and options" in the top left-hand corner of the programs.
As of version 2024.e, the "Shortcuts for all applications" tab has been implemented in the dialogue box displayed when selecting this option and it shows all the keyboard shortcuts common to CYPE apps.
In version 2024.d of CYPE Connect and StruBIM Steel, the possibility of using post-installed anchors from the HILTI brand catalogue as concrete fixing elements in anchor plates has been incorporated. The checking of these elements is carried out in accordance with the criteria from EN 1992-4:2018, based on the data provided in the respective ETA (European Technical Assessment) for each fixing.
The post-installed anchors incorporated in version 2024.d are the following:
In version 2024.d of CYPE Connect and StruBIM Steel, the possibility of using post-installed anchors from the FISCHER brand catalogue as concrete fixing elements in anchor plates has been incorporated. The checking of these elements is carried out in accordance with the criteria from EN 1992-4:2018, based on the data provided in the respective ETA (European Technical Assessment) for each fixing.
The post-installed anchors incorporated in version 2024.d are the following:
In version 2024.d, the buckling analysis process has been significantly improved, thus reducing analysis times considerably.
