Basic License Cold-Formed Steel Design Modules
Curtain Wall
Design components for a wide variety of common curtain wall application such as bypass, infill, spandrel, parapet, and opening conditions. Complete the assembly with TSN’s connection and Hilti’s fasteners.
Load Bearing Wall
Optimize load bearing stud components in low and mid-rise structures. Select from Standard section, JamStud® sections, or the optimal SigmaStud® sections..
X-Brace Shear Wall
Design the innovative StiffWall® shear wall system as an alternative shear wall system. The StiffWall shear wall provides clients with the industry’s most effective light steel framing shear wall solution.
Moment-Resisting Short Wall
Utilize the innovative MidWallTM section to design interior partition walls, parapet walls, or strip window framing.
Floor Framing
Choose from TSN’s PrimeJoist® sections or Standard sections to quickly design a light steel-framed floor system.
Roof Framing
Design roof rafters and joists quickly and easily with SteelSmart® System’s Roof Framing module.
Roof Trusses
Select from a variety of common truss templates or edit a general case truss to design members, connections, fasteners, and lateral bracing components.
SteelSmart System Basic
Choose from a wide-variety of common curtain wall applications, such as bypass, infill, spandrel, parapet, and opening conditions. Complete the assembly with TSN's connections and Hilti's fasteners.
Optimize load bearing stud elements in low and mid-rise structures. Select fromStandard sections or the optimal SigmaStudsection.
Shear wall design is simplified with the power of SSS 7. Newly added special seismic design requirements provide clients with multiple design options.
Choose from TSN'sPrimeJoistor Standard sections to quickly select a steel-framed floor system.
Design roof rafters and joists quickly and easily with SteelSmartSystem's Roof Module.
Select from a variety of common trusses, or create your own truss to design the members, connections, fasteners, and lateral bracing elements.
Simplify and optimize the design and construction of a short wall or half wall in residential and commercial cold formed steel framing.
SteelSmart System Advanced
Lateral Load Generator/Distributor
The Lateral Load Generator/Distributor tool uses the dimensions and load specification for a building and calculates the total lateral wind and seismic loads according to ASCE 7 Standard “Minimum Design Loads for Buildings and Other Structures”.
Plots framing layout of the wall and adds the connection design data (clip designation, number of fasteners, embedment, and screw pattern) to the typical connection detail. The drawing also includes framing members’ cross-sections and shapes. The drawing can be exported in AutoCAD;DXF format.
BIM Framing Plugin for Revit
SteelSmart® Framer: Framing Plugin for Revit
The SteelSmart® Framer provides engineers and contractors with a powerful tool to better design, estimate, and communicate light steel framing on projects using Autodesk® Revit® Building Information Modeling (BIM) software. Easily model every stud, track, shear walls, and connector. Export complete material take-off for better estimation and planning of your project.
Advanced Structural Analysis
Extreme Loading for Structures Software or ELS, is an advanced non-linear structural analysis software tool designed specifically for structural engineers. ELS allows structural engineers to study the 3D behavior of structures through both the continuum and discrete stages of loading.
